The 116 Best Recordings of 2016
(Part 4 of 4)

Wednesday MidDay Medley presents part-four, of our four-week special: The 116 Best Recordings of 2016. Based on playlists of this little ole radio show, we’ve compiled representative tracks from our favorite full-length and EP recordings of the year. We realize that these “Best of” lists can seem very subjective, however we ask that you please accept our list as a celebration of the year of music.

In 2016 we’ve played over 1000 different songs on the show, and from over 300 New & MidCoastal Releases. Over 40 of the bands and artists in our “Best of” list have actually joined us live and/or performed in our 90.1 FM studios. We’ve interviewed over 200 local and national guests. 70 of the representative recordings on our “Best of” list were MidCoastal Releases, produced by artists based here in the area. It’s all good!

Throughout December on 90.1 FM KKFI we’ve packed 8-hours of radio with music that represent: The 116 of Best Recordings of 2016!

This Wednesday, we’ll count down #29 through #1 of our list, with with representative tracks from: The Julie Ruin, Laura Mvula, Jenny Hval, Cate Le Bon, Fantastic Negrito, Nicholas St. James, Angel Olsen, Solange, Your Friend, Thao & The Get Down Stay Down, Car Seat Headrest, Howard Iceberg & The Titanics, Lincoln Marshall, ANOHNI, Rachel Mallin and The Wild Type, Chris Meck and The Guilty Birds, Berwanger, Erik Voeks, David Bowie, Calvin Arsenia, Betse & Clarke, Psychic Heat, Hipshot Killer, Various Blonde, Heidi Lynne Gluck, The Conquerors, The Grisly Hand, Katy Guillen & The Girls, and The Philistines.
