This is the point when I usually write a few paragraphs looking back on the year we’ve just had; but what is there to say about 2020 that hasn’t already been said? We all know how grim it’s been & I imagine most of our readers are aware of the catastrophic effect it has had on the creative industries. So let’s just move on & look forward to things slowly improving as we head in to 2021.

 

Massive, massive thanks to Sander, Lance, Charlie & the rest of the team for keeping things going without missing a beat during this crazy year.

 

All that said, perhaps 2020’s one saving grace is that the torrent of incredible music that has come our way has not let up and we once again have a panoply of goodness to share with you at year end. So dig in, explore & hopefully find yourselves some amazing music you may have missed.
