Came in here just to mention this because those dudes were great live and this album rules. Will think of more later.
Iād really recommend checking out stuff from the label itās on, Wah Wah Wino. Their V/A album is pretty special, has some more Davy on it (Morgan & Davy - Craudrock). Morgan has been putting out cool kraut-flavoured things for a few years now too. This release in particular is greeeeeat!
Here is some music from the clarinetist on that Davy track. Had the pleasure of seeing him perform solo earlier in the year, super super nice.

I had the idea for eluviumās shuffle drones a long time agoāset of ambient pieces which can be played seamlessly in any order on repeat foreverābut seeing as I have the musical knowledge and ability of a tree stump, I had to leave it to someone else to make. Iām an ideas man. eluvium made it. it is nice
I didnāt listen to a ton of new music this year either, so this is a list of 30.769% of the albums I heard from this year:
Ry - SOFT TOWN: An album composed entirely from Animal Crossing instruments, itās not mind-blowing but itās a real nice salve for the soul in the Year of our Luigi 2017.
Favorite Track: Noon (Outside)
Esselfortium - PC LOVE LETTER: Itās vaporwave that sounds like it was sampled, but was not sampled. Another relax-em-up. Real groovy in a way that a lot of vaporwave isnāt.
Favorite Track: Funeral Benefits
Neil Cicierega - Mouth Moods: Itās the eye of the tiger, itās the thrill of the tiger, rising up to the tiger of our tiger.
Favorite Track: Tiger
Svetlana: The Space Adventures Of General Mibi - Itās an album composed for the Microsoft GS Wavetable Synth soundfont, and itās equal parts nostalgia and excellent composition. It sounds like how I imagine Math Blaster sounded, but never actually heard because the computer I played it on didnāt have a sound card or something. Anyway, itās jammin.
Favorite Track: Spaceship, Repair Thyself.
I also liked Jamiroquaiās Automaton but not enough to write words about it (other than these)
God this list makes it obvious that Iām a hipster. Christ.
