1st place: #Rosalia – Lux

Are you familiar with ‘Berghain’? It's something between classical music, pop and hip hop. Rosalia skilfully plays with expectations, only to shatter them. Behind the lovely music, there is an ambiguous message about faith and love, including sex. My album of 2025.

2nd place: @littlesimzfans.bsky.social – Lotus

After ‘Thank You’, I was disappointed. These recordings are different: bass-heavy hip hop with subtle stories that make you smile. ‘Young’ tells the story of a professional bingo player. Simz has rediscovered her storytelling skills.

3rd place: #ThePrayerChain – Communion

Mercury was released 30 years ago, and now the band has released the album in a way that meets their own standards. This music comes across as unhurried, with plenty of space. Epic songs like Sky High and Manta Rae set the tone.

4th place: #GreenteaPeng – Tell Dem It's Sunny

Sometimes she reminds me of Little Simz or Portishead, without copying them. Aria Wells effortlessly weaves beautiful melodies that I can lose myself in. Everything is always danceable, with that certain touch of hip hop or trip hop.

5th place: #WetLeg – Moisturizer

As a man, Wet Leg always makes me feel like I'm walking on razor blades. But that's okay. The feminist duo remains red-hot with their second album. Anyone who gives their music a chance will be rewarded with danceable tunes for an afternoon in a teenager's bedroom.

6th place: @themurdercapital.bsky.social – Blindness

In 2023, I saw the band supporting Nick Cave in Munich. I was confused because this is exactly how I imagine the ideal indie rock band to be. Circular saw guitars create an inferno over which James McGovern pours out his rusty lyrics. Wonderful.

7th place: #BenjaminBooker – Lower

I love Booker for his diffuse noise music and those whispers and murmurs. That's how he gets me. Always a little off the mark, but all the more endearing for it. This is the perfect music to get you back on your feet after a boozy night out.

8th place: #Sixpence - Live At Gruene Hall

Sixpence are back and now on Christmas tour in the States. This live album features ‘Kiss Me’ and the choir cover ‘Midnight Sun’, with percussionist Steve Hindalong also on board. The more recent single “Julia” and ‘Rosemary Hill’ are also included.

9th place: #Mechatok – Wide Awake

I'm no expert on electronic music, but Mechatok has hit the mark with this album. It packs a punch like no other. Emir Timur Tokdemi, aka Mechatok, unleashes a sound avalanche that is second to none. The collaborations with Bladee and Ecco2k are also top notch.

On another note: don't stream, buy music properly, even if it's a digital download. Support music and don't ruin musicians. Long live vinyl records. #nostream #nospotify #nodeezer #qobuz

10th place: #Bilderbuch – Live In Los Angeles

Singer Maurice confesses to his audience ‘A Dream Come True’. Bilderbuch play all the great hits from their early albums, such as “Spliff” and ‘Maschin’, in the City of Angels, which almost makes up for how bad their current studio albums were.

11th place: @radiohead.wastehq.social – Hail To The Thief (live)

Those were the days when Thom Yorke squealed to guitar rock. I would have loved to see Radiohead live too. Five minutes in, all tickets gone. That's why I praise the small stages where we can look the band members straight in the eye.
December 17, 2025 at 5:07 PM
12th place: @depechemode.com - Memento Mori (Mexico City)
I would have loved to see DM on this tour, but the tickets sold out fast. This live production is brilliant. It starts off with live drums and some heavy guitars (‘I Feel You’). Hits like ‘Enjoy The Silence’ or ‘Personal Jesus’ are amazing.

13th place: @unwedsailor.bsky.social – Cruel Entertainment

I saw them in Washington DC in 2014, awesome. Their new album is much louder. Generally speaking, I don't find instrumental music easy to listen to. But this album rocks.
December 16, 2025 at 5:21 PM
14th place: #Mewithyou – Live (Vol. I)

A few years ago, I saw them live in Wiesbaden, and they were a force of nature. I love their screaming, the exuberant guitars and the electric atmosphere at their concerts.

15th place: @deaconbluemusic.bsky.social – Great Western Road

I'm a fan of this Scottish band, and their album won me over with their cover of Beyoncé's ‘Texas Hold’. Otherwise, it's a solid album. I read Ricky Ross' autobiography, which was impressive. I like music that makes me feel at home.

How many music releases are there each year? Certainly several thousand. These are the albums that I came across in 2025 and liked. I have read about 200 productions and listened to many of them in part. Conditions: No re-issues, must also have been released on vinyl in 2025, only complete albums.

On Saturday, we visited my sister on the Swiss border. This is the breeding bull for her herd of Highland cattle. He weighs around 800 kilograms and is almost as tame as a lamb. #stühlingen #finespecimen
