It's amazing to us when we hear people say there is no good music coming out. If you were living on a remote island or under a rock this may be the case. Nevertheless, in 2015 there were so many amazing projects that came out in 2015. We took a look at all the records we bought and ones that were sent to us as promos. Some you may have heard on our weekly Eavesdrop Radio show throughout the year. This listing is in no particular order but does reflect releases we went back to over and over again throughout the year. It's great that so many of these projects came out in vinyl and two on this list were released on cassette. We encourage you to click on the images, find out more about these artists and support their music.

We wish you all the best for the New Year and we look forward to hearing more amazing music in 2016. Thank you to the entire artists on this list and the labels for releasing music that has been our soundtrack for the year and years to come!

(YES, we know D'Angelo and the Vanguard came out in the 2014. However, it came out so late we really think of it as a 2015 release.)
