Last week, I did a 2 hour show featuring some of my favourite tracks from last year. Those were submissions to the show or tracks that I actually downloaded and stored on a hard drive. However, last year, I also started streaming music. I tried Apple and Beatsource before finally landing on Tidal. It is by far my favourite streaming platform.
I had an entire playlist of tracks I bookmarked to play on the show. I knew I needed to do another Best of 2022 and just go through these streaming songs. So, here it is, some tunes I love and discovered on Tidal.
Happy New Year!
