It was super refreshing, so many layers of vocals and instrumentation. An intriguing record, that kinda just got me and made me feel excited to be an artist.

Favorite Album
Rage Against The Machine - Rage Against The Machine
This came out at a time when i needed it the most (i was 14!) will never forget how good it felt to hear that album from start to finish. It was like hitting a punch bag, I always felt better after hearing it.

Favorite Album
'Stress' by Seppa
With half time, you get the best of both worlds of a cross over of dnb which is half the speed, with hip-hop elements and samples, which is what I love about Seppa's production and mastering. Gritty, raw and serious swagness, you can't help but have a cheeky grin on your face and toe tap to his infectious beats. I love working out to this album, it really gets you pumped for the day!

Favorite Album
Silent Alarm by Bloc Party
The raw emotion and angst in Kele Okereke's vocals paired with themes of politics and boredom made for the perfect soundtrack to my teens. My love for the album was renewed in 2018 when I saw them play it in full at Alexandra Palace. The sense of unity in the crowd was unlike anything else I've experienced at a gig. It felt like a huge celebration, a thank you to Bloc Party for giving us this unforgettable indie gem.

Favorite Album
Never Say Never by Brandy
In the 90s, I loved listening to R&B hits, especially Brandy's album "Never Say Never". It had a mix of smooth and slow ballads, and Brandy's style was a combination of edgy and sweet. The fashion of the time, including sportswear, gold hoops, and box braids, made it the best decade for black hairstyles. Brandy was even known as "the Box-Braid Queen".

On & On by Jack Johnson
Can never get enough of this album, or any of Jack’s albums for that matter! Makes any occasion even better!

Favorite Album
'22, A Million' by Bon Iver
For me, this album gets the perfect balance between emotion, musicality and experimentation.
Ben
Head of Tiktok
Favorite Album
Montero by Lil Nas X
My favourite album is Montero by Lil Nas X. This is because he is a person I feel I have a strong connection with in terms of someone chasing their dreams and I can hear the passion and messages portrayed in every song as if they were written by myself.

Head of Creative & Socials
Favorite Album
'What You Don't See' by The Story So Far
I discover this band back in my college days, and this album has stuck with me since. To me there is no album that makes me feel better than this does.

Favorite Album
Off The Wall by Micheal Jackson
This album for me is one of those albums that you don't need (or want!) to skip any tracks - it's good old classic disco music at it's finest, full of groovy, feel-good flavour!
John
Senior Account Manager
Favorite Album
'Midnight Organ Fight' by Frightened Rabbit
This is one of the best Scottish albums of the 00’s and one of the most influential albums in my life. It means a lot to me and so many other people, it really is a lifeline for a lot of people. The words are beautiful and honest, it’s an album to get lost in and something I hold really close to my heart.
Christopher
Radio Plugger
Favorite Album
The Lonesome Crowded West by Modest Mouse
There are so many angles to this album and I love the complete mix of styles the band move effortlessly between. From the Hip-Hop inspired scratching in ‘Heart Cooks Brain’ to the Black Sabbath-esque riffin 'of ‘S** Luck’ It’s the sound of a band at the top of the game and for me, no other ‘Indie Rock’ releases quite match this.

Favorite Album
Still Not Getting Any by Simple Plan
Well and truly my absolute favourite band, I love all their albums but this one is still one of the greatest pop-punk albums ever. It’s got so many of my favourite tracks on it and everytime I listen to it I’m transported back to being at one of their shows.

Favorite Album
Tranquility Base Hotel and Casino By Arctic Monkeys
I loved the lounge sound and their movement from British rock to this new age era. Alex Turner is a personal hero of mine!

Favorite Album
Get Rich Or Die Tryin’ by 50 Cent
I can truly say Hip Hop raised me and I couldn’t live without it. When I think about my childhood, this album played a big part. In Da Club being the birthday anthem. I’ve always said it’s 00s over 90s for me, especially due to the memories I’ve made.

Favorite Album
Endtroducing by DJ Shadow
This was a hard choice as LTJ Bukem’s ‘Logical Progression’ is up there but it’s a compilation really. I love sampling and this album is in the Guinness Book of World Records for the first album made completely from samples. I’m a complete anorak when it comes to spotting samples and this album is the reason why.

Favorite Album
My Love is Cool by Wolf Alice
It's got great vocals, ranges from shoe gaze to big grundy riffs but mostly because it reminds me of driving around to gigs with the boys and blasting at full volume.
Nathan
Senior Publicist
Favorite Album
Full Moon by Brandy
As an R&B aficionado, Brandy’s “Full Moon” ticks all the boxes, and I think all fans of R&B can appreciate the quality of this album. It’s a masterclass in vocal production, and together with Rodney Jerkins' beats, something special was created that still sounds fresh (yet nostalgic) today 20+ years later.

Publicist
Favorite Album
Illmatic by NAS
‘Illmatic’ is one of the many hip-hop albums I started listening to as a kid and proves exactly why Nas is one of the greatest MCs of all time. His masterful lyricism and unbeatable flow on each track had me hooked right from the start - it's timeless, and I listen to at least one track from it every day!
Joe
Publicist
Favorite Album
Prisoner By Ryan Adams
This is hard to admit as John Mayer is my absolute idol, but this is the best heartbreak grunge-filled body of work I've ever listened to. Cannot recommend it enough!
Claire
Publicist
Favorite Album
Demon Dayz by Gorillaz
I love music that makes you feel like you’re in another world, and Demon Days by Gorillaz is the type of album that lets your imagination run wild. “Feel Good Inc.” and “DARE” still get stuck in my head sometimes.
Danielle
Publicist
Favorite Album
Electra Heart by Marina and the Diamonds
It was ahead of its time with hard-hitting, gut wrenching lyricism and instrumentation that still to this day touches my soul. Even though my music taste ranges over almost every genre, I’ll always come back to this album.

Favorite Album
Life in Colour by Picture This
It’s the band's 3rd album and in my opinion the best. The instrumental work is fantastic and the vocals are soulful and full of emotion. From listening it’s clear the band put everything into this album.

‘Whatever People Say I Am That Is What I Am Not’ by Arctic Monkeys
Every song is perfectly written, it might as well be single after single. Showing a generation that no matter where you are from, how old you are, what your influences are, your music can be music for the masses.

A&R Executive
Favorite Album
Definitely Maybe by Oasis
Being a Northern Soul through and through I had to go with one of the classic Oasis albums as my favourite. "Definitely Maybe" is simply genius. The instrumentals at the time in the mid 90's sounded so unique and even now nearly 30 years on it still sounds so fresh and so Rock 'n' Roll. To follow Definitely Maybe with "What's The Story Morning Glory" the following year really cemented Oasis as true Rock 'n' Roll icons

Favorite Album
The Marshal Mathers LP by Eminem
A cockier and bolder, yet more mature and refined step up from his debut album. I love the audacity of the tracks and how he dares to step more in favour of using humour in his lyrics. It’s without doubt an album where every single song is unique and equally enjoyable as the last… no skips whatsoever when listening. A masterpiece in my opinion.

Favorite Album
Because the Internet by Childish Gambino
This was so much more than just an album and more the centrepiece of an innovative, creative project (listen to the Dissect podcast and you’ll see what I mean). Featuring ‘Sweatpants’, ‘3005’ and ‘Telegraph Avenue’ as standout tracks, the lyricism and delivery as Donald Glover explores his identity, technology and culture throughout is, for me, unparalleled and beyond unique. An honourable mention goes to ‘Hot Fuss’ by The Killers as a debut album.
Devin
A&R Executive
Favorite Album
Dreamland by ZHU
Ultimately I would have to choose Dreamland as my favorite album; ZHU’s profound pieces on this record never fail to transport me as a listener to a thrilling, imaginative, place that I never want to leave.

Favorite Album
Ready to Die by The Notorious B.I.G
From the classics like Juicy and One More Chance - his track The Warning was for me the best storytelling hip hop song for a long time! The production was also perfect – the early Bad Boy sound which was gritty mixed with classic soul samples which I love being a soul head first. This albums a timeless classic!
Tamsin
A&R Executive
Favorite Album
Baduizm by Erykah Badu
Life wasn’t the same after discovering ‘On & On’ at 11 years old. Baduizm is an eternal masterpiece, beautifully showcasing an impressive high-fi production of the late 90s, while taking you on a journey through time. Fusing influences from 90’s hiphop, 70’s soul, and the classic sonics of 50’s jazz, this record is what makes Erykah Badu the queen of neo-soul. Her effortless vocal, paired with unapologetic and witty lyricism of philosophy, love and spirituality, is what changed my approach to creating and listening to music forever.

Choose Your Weapon by Hiatus kaiyote
I listen to this front to back religiously, it's the kind of album that never gets old. The musical complexities really hook you in and Nai Palm’s smooth vocals take you to a dreamlike state. Music like this inspires me to write and sing more, I love bands that can go against the norm and really leave an impact.

Simple Things by Zero 7
Listening to this album is like getting a sonic hug from an old friend. A timeless, beautifully arranged masterpiece in my opinion. The beats, the bass, the lush strings arrangements, the acoustic guitars; everything about it is blissfully effortless. I listen to it at least once a week! I'd take this album to a desert island and happily listen on repeat.
