Best of 2022 from Neil Lord (Future Museums)
Neil is a fantastic musician and he is known for his work under the Future Museums banner. He is another of my friends that i will expressly go to for recommendations. He tends to cast a wide net and has a lot of curiosity about what’s happening in the more obscure areas of the music world. I do a good bit of research on new records but Neil is much more well versed so he tends to find some of the most pleasing but still ultimately challenging listens around. He has probably helped the bottom line of quite a number of record shops around the globe i think. Glad he can share his knowledge with you.
