5:5:5: XIII - Here it is... 60 shining tracks, 2020 highlights from 12 music obsessed label regulars...

5:5:5: XIII. 2020.

Well, I’m sure no one needs me to go on about the pains of this year, suffice to say, it’s been a good one for exploring music from a distance.

And so once again, I have the honour of presenting the selections of some properly obsessed music addicts, each here picking 5 particular track highlights, in no particular order, except that they made an indelible mark during 2020 for the selectors below.

An enormous thanks to each of them, 60 tracks to explore herein…
