LISTEN: 2014: The Best Of

My favourite tracks of the year, compiled into two highly enjoyable compilations. To hear truly great new music in 2014, you often had to dig very deep for it. While the mainstream missed out, those lucky enough to hear this year's finest sounds enjoyed a bumper year. RW/FF managed to find so many amazing records over the past year, that it was incredibly hard to narrow it all down to a simple two part compilation. 

While part 1 journeys through psychedelica, dance, Krautrock and electronica, the 2nd part takes a more indie-based route. There's some very interesting stuff in here many won't have had the chance to hear before, so listen and enjoy.

Both parts can be played via Mixcloud below.
