Week in week out, the vast conveyor belt that is the music industry pukes out a relentless flow of hideous banalities and hidden gems. This time of the year provides, for list enthusiasts at least, a perfect opportunity to pause for a moment, look back at the year gone and take stock of what has been ingurgitated, processed and digested, or not as the case may be, and try to condense this into an easily. Although indubitably flawed, as, after all, the said list is no more than a snapshot of a moment in time, and may bare little or no relation to a similar exercise conducted some time in the future. Some records require time to make sense while others loose all meaning taken out of their original context. 2007 has been a rather fertile season for some labels (Leaf, Bedroom Community) while others have found themselves on slightly less opulent grounds for a while. This is therefore just a glance at some of the richest sediment the past year has left behind.
