๐ค tecโs Recs ๐ค Q2 + Q3 (2023)
After making a list of my favorite albums for Q1 2023, I neglected to do the same for the second quarter and thus you will all now suffer a bloated combination of Q2 + Q3. Albums previously featured on the Q1 list will NOT appear here. In short, these are: (1) Albums released in 2023 (2) that I've listened to for the first time between April and September that (3) weren't featured on my previous list and (4) that I've rated at least 7/10.
