Hey, >>60547944 here. Admittedly, i don't actively seek out as many new artists as i did a few years ago. I came to /mu/ in 2011 to help expand my tastes. I have a good idea as to what i like now. Most of the music i listened to this year was stuff i was planning on listening to in the first place.
in no order:
to kek a whitey
fashion week
i dont like shit i dont go outside
carrie and lowell
>>60548021
