Albums Released January to June 2024

There have been several albums released so far in 2024, and I decided to compile them in a post separate from the EPs. Much as with the other list, I am sure I’ve missed a few, so if there are any you know of that are not shared here, feel free to tell me in the comments!

Be sure to check out my list of EPs that have dropped over the past 6 months, as well!

The Mostly Music 2024 Playlist, Pt. 1 (Updated 1/14/24)

Happy New Year! We’re only two weeks in to 2024, and there has already been a lot of fantastic music released. I have compiled as many singles from the past fourteen days as I can into a Spotify playlist. This year, I’m doing a separate playlist for every three months instead of four, so there will be four parts total.

Here are the songs added from January 1st to today, January 14th.

The Mostly Music 2023 Playlist, Pt. 3 (Updated 9/10/23)

So I have been remiss and have not posted all of the singles that have been added to parts one and two of my 2023 playlist, but from this post onward, I plan to stay on top of the third installment for the rest of the year. (This is quite the massive undertaking; as previously stated, in 2024, I will be dividing the playlists into more digestible segments – perhaps grouping only three months of singles into each rather than four.)

If you are interested, I will link the other two playlists at the end of this post. For now, here is the first group of singles I added to part three. I usually do two weeks’ worth at a time, as some weeks there are very few releases to share.

Also, this list is far from comprehensive. I tend to focus on independent bands/artists who are not backed by major labels. I’m sure I miss an entire world of tracks by other indie artists/bands. You can feel free to comment with a few, if you’d like!

More fun links!
