We helped out at Voxbox on Record Store Day this year.
Happy new year one and all. This is just a list of some records I have really enjoyed in the last year, in no particular order. Apologies to the ones I have overlooked. Spotify links where available. If you like something, go and buy it. The list excludes all the music we released at Gerry Loves Records this year, which I obviously think is all very good.

Spotify playlist of most of these records in one place.
Another random mix of songs from vinyl I've bought recently.
A couple of bands I've seen live recently, two tracks from releases on Paris' Pop In from my recent trip to the city, one of the many Radiohead remixes coming out on 12"s at the moment, and lots more. I've moved my mixtapes to Mixcloud, as they offer unlimited uploads and this mix would have taken me to the edge of my free Soundcloud account.
I have also created a podcast feed, so you can subscribe to these occasional mixtapes in iTunes or other podcatching software.
