There are few surprises and many familiar faces on my end of the year compilation. In a year where I did much more looking backwards than staying present tense, this comp doesn’t quite read like a “best of” but rather just a great sequence. I suppose that’s what every great compilation is supposed to be anyway (and great it is).
