This year, I decided that from now on, the january rotations are going to be for the previous year's recapitulation :)

As usual : Song titles link to individual mp3 file download

All 5 songs can also be downloaded together in a zip file from the link at the bottom

Let's take a look at what my 2024 looked like, musically !

Ad Infinitum - See You In Hell

Ad Infinitum was a new discovery, for me, this year. I had downloaded the album this is on without being informed about the band, and I found it catching me. A little trip on youtube confirmed that this was right up my alley lol. This song in particular doesn't show it, but she also has a pretty neat growl on top of her top notch clean vocals ♥

See You In Hell was a single off of Chapter I - Monarchy, released in 2020

Aural Vampire - ICONOCLASM

gosh that song has to be annoying as fuck for untrained hear lmao.

My uploading of this song to tumblr was one of my most popular music posts of 2024 though :3

And yes, it IS a Buck-Tick cover :)

ICONOCLASM was on the Mimic Your Hair mini-album, released in 2015

Blackbriar - Arms of the Ocean

I had already heard of Blackbriar prior to this year, but 2024 is when I actually looked into them. To me, they feel a bit as if Within Temptation was led by a weird girl (affectionate) instead of a fairy princess (also affectionate :)).

Arms of the Ocean is on the We'd Rather Burn EP, from 2018

Collide - Ocean

I didnt plan to have two songs about disappearing in the ocean back to back but i guess here we are lol

I was introduced to Collide through a post about how darkwave moved from sounding like a bunch of bands including them, to all the darkwave bands sounding the same lol. Now, considering the name of the band, I didn't expect to find much, but I did find this album that they had mentionned ! And I liked it ! So I'm gonna dig further, eventually :3

Ocean is on Chasing the Ghost, from 2000.

Dalida - Monday, Tuesday... (Laissez-Moi Danser)

Oh, I set myself up with this one lmao. This is how my 2024 started :) Yes, yes, Dalida again, yes, deal with it hahaha.

Laissez-Moi Danser was on Dédié à Toi, released in 1979

(this is delightful lmao)

Exit Eden - Femme Fatale

Another new discovery ! Not gonna lie, I got into Exit Eden cause their first album was all cover, and I'm a sucker for covers !!!!! And then I stayed because I really did enjoy the fact that they have/had 4 vocalists, each with their own strength !! I almost went with their cover of Mylène Farmer's Désenchantée, but in the end I settled on this one cause not only does it get stuck in my head, once in a while, but they also pronouce "femme" properly LOL (one of them is French, so of course they pronounce it properly x) ). It's also very catchy :).

Femme Fatale is on the Femmes Fatales album released in 2024

(this post wasnt sponsored by napalm records lmao)

Hora - PART OF YOUR WORLD

This year, I finally got to listen to most of Hora's post 2010 releases ! I chose this song cause I see it as the demo for Schwarz Stein's Ever After :3

PART OF YOUR WORLD is found on the the DESOLATION BEAUTY album, from 2014

(Look all I can find is the little mermaid, on youtube, so here's an upload, i guess. don't worry, the mp3 file is 320kbps, unlike this upload :) )

Nakamori Akina - 禁区 (kinku)

This song accompanied me through my therapy, last spring/summer and it's one of the last song i just had to listen on repeat again and again aaaaah

Kinku was a single released in 1983.

Schwarz Stein - Wachtraum

This was the last song i listened to, this year :)

Wachtraum was the last track of the Immortal Verses mini-album, released in 2018

Тату (Tatu) - Робот (Robot)

I got a weird hair up my ass, at some point, and went and downloaded the russian/original version of 200km/h In The Wrong Lane, as I hadn't heard it before, despite being pretty familiar with the english version. This song is perfect to wash dishes to XD

Robot was on 200 по встречной (200 Po Vstrechnoy, forgive any mistake, i'm not reading russian/cyrillic at all, i'm just copy/pasting 😬), released in 2001
