The final episode of Exit Planet Earth Series 2 on OpenLab is a special extended music only mix that takes in some of my favourite records produced in 2020AD. It’s not intended to be a ‘Best of 2020’ but more a selection of the records that resonated thru the year for me personally. There are many more that could have been included.
These are some of the records that inspired me, records that blew my mind, records that picked me up when I felt down, records that made me realise why I love electronic music, records that captured the times, records that gave us beauty, records that were just down right dirty, records that made me imagine distant worlds and records that made me want to stay on planet earth.
A massive thanks to everyone that’s tuned into the show, your support and appreciation has kept me going and thanks to the team at OpenLab Radio that work on the show every week with enthusiasm and attention to detail.
Happy New Year to you all on planet earth...
