There was a mid-2014 thread about this, but it could use an update :)

This year has so far been the best year in music for me in terms of releases but also gigs, never saw so many and such different gigs (classical gigs, Seun Kuti & Egypt 80, Biosphere, Luke Vibert, Sun-Ra, Pentagram, Earth, Chelsea Wolfe, Ceephax, a lot of black and doom metal, Legowelt, William Burnett, Jungle By Night, house/disco parties with Theo Parrish and Sadar Bahar, Sunn O))), Swans (twice), Michael Gira solo, Autechre, Saves / Bo Ningen, and lots more at festivals, all in less than a year. Besides that I have never bought so much (older) records in one year plus I discovered really great music.

Top 20 (semi-random order, the first five are all #1):

Aphex Twin - Syro
Aleksi Perala - The Colundi Sequence

CN - NU
EDM - C2 + D4 + E1
Luke Vibert - Ridmik
Caustic Window - Caustic Window LP
Moodymann - Moodymann
Heidi Lord - English Electric
Legowelt - Crystal Cult 2080

Radio-Logg - Sports / Tools

Black Narcissus - Varla / Fatale

Piiptsjilling - Moarntiids
