Favorite Albums Of 2012 (Alex) After looking my top albums list over, I realize it's much more moody than years past. I think this might be because the majority of the time I listen to music is when I'm inside, and living in Seattle that means it's probably a little misty or cloudy out.

Planeta Pop
Las 100 canciones del año en Planeta Pop . La manera de escuchar música ha cambiado definitivamente y como anunciaba el año pasado, ha llegado el momento en este blog de prescindir de la lista de álbumes de cada año y centrarse en las canciones, aunque lógicamente muchas de ellas formen parte de algunos de los mejores trabajos de larga duración publicados en los últimos doce meses. Otras se incluyen en Eps o han sido singles. Pese a que algún artista merecería estar representado con más de una canción, de cada disco sólo se ha elegido una. Una lista de [...]

(photo by cubagallery ) We're quickly approaching the end of 2012 and/or the world depending on your interpretation of Mayan prophecy, and that can only mean it's time to reflect on the best albums of the year. For me, one record stood head and shoulders above the rest in 2012, so album of the year was an easy decision, but there was much deliberation for the other 24 positions (plus, honorable mentions). This was one of the most diverse years of music in recent memory, with pop, guitar-oriented rock, folk music, indie-pop and electronica all being represented [...]

I don't know about you, but back in early July I was in a state beyond euphoria as I was informed of the highly anticipated first lineup announcement for the 2012/2013 Falls Music and Arts Festival . Bearing the knowledge that certain bands and artists' presence would be closing 2012 and opening 2013 in a beautiful, natural amphitheater had me ready to buy tickets from the get go. I'm talking The Flaming Lips , Beach House , SBTRKT and Best Coast - just to name a few. [...]
