Headphone Commute’s Best of 2024

Welcome to the 17th edition of Headphone Commute’s Best of the Year selections. I usually stress out about this process, but this time, it felt a bit organic. I picked the music with which I connected. I chose the people through whom the music spoke. In 2024, I’ve receded back into the solitude, removing my [anti-]social media presence and bringing back the format of in-depth reviews. As I type this, I am already cooking up a new idea for this year, in which I hope to better engage with you, my readers, on a deeper level. Let’s see if this backfires in some way. In either case, I continue reminding myself of this endeavour’s original purpose. It’s honest words on honest music. It’s as simple as that.

As usual, the format is the same. I do my best to select only full-length albums [so no EPs or compilations here, sorry], sticking to the ones released in 2024 [so no re-issues], and listed in alphabetical order by artist’s name [so no one is genuinely #1]. I will reveal each list per day. We’ve got a dozen to get through here, folks! Finally, please subscribe for automatic notifications via email of all the latest posts – it’s the only way to keep in touch [for now]. As always, please enjoy responsibly and support the featured artists!
