Grab your iPod, gang!

Of the 14 million songs added to Spotify this year these were the greatest.

Or, more accurately, of the music that we discovered in 2019 these were our favourite tracks.

Instead of putting them together here in a painfully slow page of endless embeds we’ve put together a playlist on Spotify and Apple Music. They’re not in any hierarchical order.

Give it a listen. If you like it, some of the music appeared on our No Shit playlist throughout 2019 – that’s the place where we add the new songs we’re into every week.

Finally, for those who don’t use those streaming services or just want a gander, here’s a full list of the artists and their songs. Enjoy listening.
