Super selection by Cal Gibson, of The Secret Soul Society.
Music, literature and art as always provided a crutch this year, something to lean on when the shit kept hitting the fan, repeatedly, both personally and out in the wider world.

Thanks and love to the music-makers, labels, press peeps, distributors, listeners, DJs, writers, reviewers, producers, radio stations and fans. Kurt Vonnegut said it best (Kurt always said it best): ‘If I should ever die, God forbid, let this be my epitaph: The only proof he needed for the existence of God was music.’ Works for me, and I’m an atheist…
