We geven ook dit jaar weer onze redacteurs carte blanche om terug te blikken op het voorbije (muzikale) jaar. Hieronder vind je het jaaroverzicht van Mattias.
In de tien jaar dat ik bewust naar muziek luister, heb ik nog nooit zoveel verteerd als in 2017. Ruim 24.000 nummers van 2.200 verschillende artiesten, als ik mijn Last.fm-account mag geloven. Met zo’n honderdvijftig optredens erbovenop hebben mijn oren wederom niet te klagen gehad.
Ik kijk uit naar (nieuw) werk van: Arctic Monkeys, Car Seat Headrest, Pinegrove, , Rolling Blackouts Coastal Fever, Sufjan Stevens, Superorganism
In eigen land: debuut van Dirk., Fornet en Whispering Sons
Wil ik live zien: Phoebe Bridgers, Courtney Barnett en Kurt Vile tesamen, Bon Iver, The Strokes
