Music Tracking 2023
These are 2023 releases that I've taken note of, listed alphabetically
by artist, with VA comps at the bottom. My grades, where available, are
in brackets at the end of the line (stars in B+ range). Lines in
blue indicate that I have a physical copy
(albeit sometimes just a promo CDR); in green
are records that I graded based on a Rhapsody stream or other such
source. Most records have release dates and a brief generic note.
Unheard records are prioritized 0-3 (graded records are 4-5).
The priotization is based subjectively on personal interests,
reviews I've noticed, reviewers I particularly respect, what
I know about the artists, etc. Roughly speaking: 0 is something
I have no reason to consider (default page omits 0); 1 has been
noted as having some cred somewhere; 2 is something I have some
specific reason to search out; 3 is something I'll listen to
ASAP.
