Our Monthly Playlist selection of choice music and Choice Releases list from the last month.

We decided at the start of the year to change things a little with a reminder of not only our favourite tracks from the last month but also a list of choice albums too. This list includes both those releases we managed to feature and review on the site and those we just didn’t get the room for – time restraints and the sheer volume of submissions each month mean there are always those records that miss out on receiving a full review, and so we have added a number of these to both our playlist and releases list.

Keep an eye out next month for our end of the year lists; a compilation of all the choice releases from 2025.
