Christmas has come early! (Kind of). Through the miraculous luxuries the 21st century has brought us, I’ve compiled the artists from last term’s ‘Totally Hot Album of the Week’ column into a Spotify playlist. It starts off with a bit of a toe-tapper from Slow Club, slides into the melancholy minimalism of Youth Lagoon and Vondelpark, strays into the hip-hop fuzz of Main Attractionz and A$AP Rocky, ventures over to a near-perfect dubstep track by Balam Acab, before taking a short sojourn with Blue Sky Black Death and Real Estate and ending with a belter by Girls that starts slow but finishes transcendentally. My only regret is that Clams Casino isn’t on Spotify and is therefore conspicuously absent. Hope you enjoy it!
