My Take
In my case, the albums that have become my favorites are the ones I feel I absolutely have to listen to from start to finish. Of course, there are standout tracks, and some, though good, might pale in comparison to others. But it’s the experience of listening to the entire album that captivates me.
Examples:
- “Flowerboy” by Tyler, The Creator.
- “Affinity” by Haken
- “Brat” by Charli XCX
- The debut album by Gentle Giant
What are your favorite albums and why?


The first CD I ever bought was The Matrix soundtrack.
These days I’ve been listening to Tycho a lot. I like all their albums. Awake may be my favorite.
Daft Punk - Interstella 5555 is magical, especially the anime.
Orbital makes some wonderful albums as well.
