“It's been so fun bringing the tradition of pasta making back into my life and bringing friends and friends' kids into the tradition. I find the intricacies of the ritual really beautiful - the volcano well of semolina flour with the eggs at the center, the different settings on the crank, laying the pasta threads out to dry over every chair in the house.

Since the year in question is 2012, and since 20X12 = 240, this yearly summary playlist consists of 240 nice tunes released in the year 2012. From 240 different artists. Reshuffled on the regular for repeat shuffles. You can’t argue with that math.
“Swim Lessons has the swag of back-to-basics acoustic Devendra Banhart Pre-Cripple Crow. It will make you nostalgic for that 2005 indie music era. However it will also make you deeply thankful we have this beautiful rich acoustic album by Swim Lessons to fill that shaky-vocal freak folk void.”

“Voices like Mitski's deserve to be broadcasted from satellites into the atmosphere of Neptune and its surrounding moons. Only then will the solar system be at peace.”
