Audio Yearbook 2024
A quick one on a quiet, wet day.
Every year, I like to compile an Audio Yearbook of music that, for whatever reason, stuck in my ear. Best on shuffle! (It’s not clear to me that the old “folder of mp3s” format is relevant to anyone these days, but if I’m wrong, let me know.)
A couple of neat things: Band People made Rolling Stone's "Best Music Books of 2024" list; the great Michaelangelo Matos called it "long overdue" and "definitive." And I was profiled by the Hudson Valley arts magazine Chronogram.
Happy new year everyone—more substantial post soon…


Hey, I really enjoy your ritual of the audio yearbooks. Would it be possible to also make this available as a Spotify playlist? I don't use apple music.
Happy new year and greetings from Germany :)
