it’s june, and that means its time for me to make a list of my favorite records so far this year. i narrowed it down from a list of 17 that i really liked a lot, which was narrowed down from the 40+ records that came out this year. granted, there are some that have just recently come out and i haven’t spent enough time with. also, there are some that have some really great tracks, but fall short as an full album. these ten records are start-to-finish great bodies of work.

smith westerns - dye it blonde
james blake - s/t
