Ep 28 | 2022 Top 10 Albums + Top Tracks

It's that time of year again, we dust off David's secret scoring
algorithm for the end of year review. This is the one we look
forward to and we hope you enjoy it.

This month, in Part 1 we run through our collective, This is Not
Happening Top-10 albums. In Part 2 we all introduce our Track of
the Year.

Part 1 | 2022 This is Not Happening Top 10 Albums

So, there's for of us. We all independently chose our Top 10
albums. This data is fed into deep learning algorithm that
considers all of the knowns and most of the unknowns and create a
singular, collective This is Not Happening Top 10. Its a
controversial approach but its as fair as we can make
it. 

This year only 2 albums were chosen by all 4 of us. Only 3 albums
were chosen by 3 of us. However, the Top 10 feels more 'shared'
than we've ever done. I think it's a really solid top 10 and we
should be proud of it.

Our number one is an absolute belter! We can hold our heads high
with this one.


Part 2 | Tracks of the Year
How do you sum up an entire year in one track? Is it
even possible? Two, important  questions, to which our
answers are; 'with difficulty' and 'yes'. We chose 4 tracks from
4 different genres. There's more than a whiff of melancholy that
links our Top tracks but we think is kind of fitting for one of
the oddest of years.


Next Month
If we're honest, we're not 100% sure what we'll be
reviewing. Every year there are albums released later in the year
that we miss or simply don't have the time to get our teeth into.
So Nolan will pick one of these albums and we'll all spend the
holidays getting stuck into that with our families (if it's
vaguely appropriate for very young or very old ears).


We've been writing the blog for years come and have a look -
