Alex writesCHIRP Radio Best of 2017: DJ Alex

Throughout December, CHIRP Radio presents its volunteers’ top albums of 2017. Our next list is from DJ Alex. I enjoy this exercise because it necessitates listening to a lot of fantastic music. Looking back at my lists over the last few years, none are remarkably alike. Varying themes emerge in each. They might represent shifting tides in the musical landscape; simply, what content is out there. What's more likely is that they illuminate something about the undulating context of the listener, me, which is different than any other listener. A recording is a fixed document. How it's received is a function of a lot of other things I couldn't possibly fully appreciate. I hope this music provides you, another listener, moments of enrichment as it did for me. |

Throughout December, CHIRP Radio presents its volunteers’ top albums of 2017. Our next list is from volunteer Eric Wiersema. 2017 has been an incredible year for music and I listened to over double the amount of new music than I usually do thanks to reviewing 46 albums for CHIRP this year. I listened to around 100 full albums total and here are my top 10! |

Throughout December, CHIRP Radio presents its volunteers’ top albums of 2017. Our next list is from DJ (Wednesday Nights 10pm-Midnight) Melissa. 2017 has been another year of killer music here in Chicago and beyond. Here is a list of records that I've spent a lot of time with this year. If you're into any of these give my Wednesday night show a listen - 10:00pm to Midnight. |

Throughout December, CHIRP Radio presents its volunteers’ top albums of 2017. Our next list is from DJ Tyler Clark. (Whoops! If you're reading this, it's at least a year after its intended publication; I was pretty delinquent on my year-end list duties for 2017, but decided to use the retroactive magic of the internet to weigh in now (December 2018) with my belated, but no less crucial, picks. Hope you dig 'em.) |
