Obscure Sound: Best Tracks of 2016

I’ve compiled our top 70 tracks of 2016, including both unsigned/independent acts and the more well-known from the year. It’s a great combination of highlights from the year’s greatest albums and single releases. This 5-hour playlist – available on Spotify here and below – aims to effectively capture a great year in music, one that will always be worth revisiting.

Also, be sure to follow Obscure Sound on Spotify if you enjoy what you’re hearing. All monthly and other playlists will be posted there.
