Favorites of 2021 (so far)
by Andy

It’s been an amazing year for music so far, and since we’re about at the tipping point of the year, I thought it was time to run down some of my favorites so far. In the interest of keeping this from being too daunting these are the top 40 that have been on my speakers the most, presented in no ranked order and giving a pretty good overview of the sounds that made up RSTB so far this year. You can check the list below or jump to the bottom for over 2 1/2 hours of the year’s greatest hits in one big mix.
