Savages

waiting for a sign is gold. didnt care for the rest

 

Both still decent, just didn't grab me personally. Might grow on me, albums often do.

L. Pierre - Island Come True

 

huge fan but didnt care for this one much. must give it another go but it won't make my top10

 

Yeah it's objectively not his best. Really dug it, just struck me for some reason and, since it was a January release, it set the mood for what I wanted to seek out musically this year.

I actually (embarrassingly) was unaware of the project until this year. I love his other L. Pierre albums, revived my passion for exotica and exotica sampling music.

Other albums I've just now been able to listen to and enjoyed this year:

Coyote Clean - 2 Hot 2 Wait

7 Days of Funk - (self-titled)

(ok, now I think that's it)

Nope. I lied.

Second Land - Copycat Sessions

i was actually listening to that this morning. there is some unique stuff on there but it kind of drags a bit too.

2013, hell of a year!
