Listen: Hooked On Dirty Airplay: 2012 Year-End Spectacular

Posted on | February 19, 2013 | No Comments

Last month, the fellas and I @ CJLO (@omarsonics of Hooked On Sonics
and @denisdirtywork of Dirty Work) did our annual year-end spectacular
where in 4 continuous hours of airtime, we shared our top 10 albums
of the year.

A mixture of the usual shoegaze, power pop, punk, hip hop and straight up
“indie” music made the cut.

I think we’ve got some darn fine choices on this list and hopefully, you’ll
discover a future musical love through us.

You’re welcome.

Download away and let me know what you think in the comment section.
