RA - the Best Records of 2024
https://ra.co/features/4404

I need to explore this later in the day.

These are the albums, EPs and compilations that made our year—from bright amapiano and complex sound design through bratty pop and studies in dub techno.

Number 1:

Loidis - One Day
West Mineral

Good to see Polygonia right up there in the RA list

Some cool picks on RA. First time hearing this Regal86 thing. I’m not sure I’ll be in the mood for an effing 100 tracks album but the opening song is very promising.

Tristwch Y Fenywod seem to echo early Dead Can Dance, without the stunning vocals and songwriting, but they still make a good impression.

2024 Spotify Wrapped is out and already users are complaining of the lack of features, e.g most listened to micro genres, similar cities, additional you might like playlists etc.

If only that hadn't have sacked people as talented as Glenn McDonald (and many others) last December.

RA - The Best Tracks of 2024
https://ra.co/features/4401

The Best Tracks of 2024

This year's 25-strong list ranges from pearly downtempo to zany budots and souped-up dubstep. But who made #1?

Let's be honest: albums reigned supreme in 2024. The Ubiquitous Festival Anthem was in short supply—especially when you consider last year's rich bounty. As such, the list below follows a more gentle curve, with nods to ambient, R&B and oddball tunes from all around the globe. Dubstep and downtempo get a strong look-in; traditional house and techno, perhaps controversially, less so.

But that's not to say the list lacks dance floor heft—you only have to look as far as incendiary floor-fillers from the likes of 1OO1O, Thoughtforms and TAAHLIAH & Elouiza. And then there's our #1, which sits somewhere between the club and the beach party. It's also the second time this artist—on this occasion, in collaboration with one of our favourite vocalists—has clinched the top spot since 2022. They must be doing something right.

— Carlos Hawthorn

Number 1:

From ambient concréte to shapeshifting rap, via melancholy confessionals, hot-and-sticky bangers, bracing hardcore and – let’s be real – some of the best capital-P Pop music since forever… these are the albums of 2024, according to Crack Magazine

UK based Louder than War presents LOUDER THAN WAR TOP 100 ALBUMS OF 2024
https://louderthanwar.com/albums-of-2024/

AOTY format
https://www.albumoftheyear.org/list/2330-louder-than-wars-top-100-albums-of-2024/

Like last year the Louder than War list is a very mixed bag of the good, to the average and to bad. From complete unknowns that you never knew even existed, to random choices of heritage artists well past their peak, artists you had forgotten or never knew released albums in 2024, a few decent choices and some predictable selections.

I look at this list and it certainly doesn't represent my 2024. I expect the list doesn't make any sense to anyone outside of the contributors of the list. A cultural cul-de-sac of odd choices restricted to the confines of Louder than War.

Number 1 by the way was

1. Amyl & The Sniffers: Cartoon Darkness
(Rough Trade)

Mexico's Sound & Vision presents Los Mejores 50 Álbumes de 2024
https://svmusica.com/2024/12/03/los-mejores-50-albumes-de-2024/

En un 2024 tan intenso y cargado de emociones en la música, ya todo lo esencial se ha dicho con más análisis y detalle sobre muchos de estos lanzamientos a lo largo del año. Basta expresarles que nos entusiasmó mucho hacer este conteo que, desde luego, está supeditado a nuestra visión artística, orientada a los sonidos y ritmos que más nos hicieron vibrar en el universo alternativo.
Aquí van a encontrar discos de todos colores y sabores, regiones de procedencia muy diversas y diferentes niveles de impacto. Lo que sí tienen en común es que todos estos títulos (y muchos más que lamentablemente se quedaron fuera) dejaron una marca imborrable en un año que no vamos a olvidar.

translated

In such an intense and emotionally charged 2024 in music, everything essential has already been said in more analysis and detail about many of these releases throughout the year. It is enough to express to you that we were very excited to do this count, which, of course, is subject to our artistic vision, oriented to the sounds and rhythms that made us vibrate the most in the alternative universe.
Here you will find albums of all colors and flavors, very diverse regions of origin and different levels of impact. What they do have in common is that all these titles (and many more that unfortunately were left out) left an indelible mark in a year that we will not forget.
