Clarence Ewing: The Million Year Trip writesComing This December: CHIRP Radio’s Best of 2013!
The past 12 months have rocketed by, and that means it’s time to take stock of music made in 2013. Our DJs and volunteers have been closely listening to the hundreds (thousands?) of albums, EPs, and singles that have come in to the station this year.
Starting tomorrow and throughout December, we will post our volunteers’ lists of the music that made the biggest impressions on them over the past 12 months. It’s not our goal to be comprehensive or definitive, but to share with you the sounds that made us move, think, emote, or whatever great music makes us do.
Some albums are sure to pop up several times, and when they do we'll use CHIRP's patended mathmatical formula to incorproate them into a final station-wide Best of 2013 list that will appear on this blog on New Year’s Eve. UIntil then, check back regularly to discover and rediscover some great '13 albums!
