It’s the start of another month, so why not look back at the month that was in terms of music. February had some amazing returns to grace, with new tracks from Hot Chip, Death Cab, and Sufjan Stevens, as well as artists who have been around for some time but have never really broken out of the indie-sphere (Unknown Mortal Orchestra, Father John Misty). This month’s list also contains some amazing new hip hop, including one of the best and most exciting tracks Kendrick Lamar has put out to date. As usual, I hope there is something in this list for everyone as I try to cover the gamut from hip hop to electronic, to rock, to folk. I hope you enjoy:
