Best of 2021 mix - Volume 2


Happy new year to you all! As I mentioned before, 2021 has seen several great releases, so here is my 2nd volume of particular favourites from the past year. Following this will be Manerg's 2nd volume, and after that I will post my 3rd, and final, selection of great singles/EPs/albums from 2021.

Thanks to everyone for the kind comments, each one inspires me to carry on with the blog, especially when I'm finding things quite tough as my personal situation isn't too great right now. But compiling these mixes helps see me through the hard times. Here's to a hopefully better 2022, and I hope you enjoy this second volume. Cheers!
