Melodica 19.12.11 (long players of 2011)

[setlist]

    Chris Coco’s weekly radio broadcast. An eclectic selection of brilliant new music starting with house and moving on to electronica, downtempo, acoustic and all sorts of other styles loosely connected to dance and electronic music. Let tastemaker Chris Coco guide you through his selection of the week’s best new music.
    This episode we celebrate the art of the long player by counting down Melodica’s favourite albums of 2011, it’s sort of emotional, interestingly mostly very laidback and song based, slightly self indulgent but ultimately satisfying, a bit like a proper listen to a really good album actually.
