Arguably an episode late, we are taking a listen to some favourite releases from the first half of 2022. You'll note that the episode is about 50% longer than usual and that format is bent but not entirely broken with some tracks that skew more to the pop side of the spectrum, still the flow is maintained, I think. Enjoy.
