We here at Music Is My Sanctuary are huge fans of any and all kinds of Lists, Charts, Best-Of’s, Playlists and so on… They are like gold to us! Asking someone with extensive knowledge on a subject to list some of his favorites is one of the greatest paths to awesome discoveries you might have missed otherwise.
Here & Now is a brand new monthly feature in which we will ask some great music heads, label people, artists, dj’s to list some of their current favourites. As always, we highly encourage you to BUY any songs or albums you discover on this post or anywhere on MIMS. Support artists & labels!
Get your notepad ready!
