In this episode, we are listening to more than 30 selected albums which were born in the spring months of the year 2024.
This episode gathered 34 completely diverse albums. The artists represent 18 countries, namely Belgium (x2), Brazil (x3), Canada (x2), Estonia, Finland, France (x2), Germany, Japan, India, Italy, The Netherlands (x2), New Zealand, Poland (x2), Russia, Spain, Turkey, The UK (x9) and the USA (x6).
This time, the albums unintentionally split into four sections that we called “parties”. No politics, it’s all about the way the new works come.
First of all, here are immediate links to the playlists which contain one track per album:
