on the lookout: 2023, as heard by Joshua.
December 2023, Joshua Wise

LINER NOTES
-----------

Every year we say that, well, it is like this now, and that this year was
something to be rid of.  Everybody I know seems to say this.  I agree that
it is like this now, and that we are all in it together -- well, whatever it
is.  I don't agree that the past is always better, though: actually, I have
it as a core belief that the future is something that is worth waiting for. 
But here we are right now.  There was a lot of it for us in 2023 -- and part
of it was that there was a lot of good new music in the past year-ish!  And
a lot that I rediscovered.  And, I'm sure, a lot still to come.

We are here in this.  This is all happening right now: a whopping hour and a
half of it.  The mix is too much, but so is all of it, so we may as well
listen to it together.

Please find below the soundtrack for my 2023.
