💥NEW💥 my fav Jazz AOTY so far. If you enjoy that 70s Brazilian soul music, go for it. Fabiano do Nascimento “Vila”. #jazz #jazzsky #nowspinning #nowplaying #brazil #aoty

Since we're nearly through the first quarter of the year already, here's a thread with the albums (EP and LP) I've enjoyed the most so far in 2026.

This is mostly for myself for December, when #AOTY season comes around again, but feel free to have a look!

Congrats BTS!!! 💜

Pat Metheny - 'Side-Eye III+' (2026)

On his new album #PatMetheny in his new trio format returns to the familiar #PatMethenyGroup sound, complemented by a stunning choral arrangement. Wonderful melodies, fantastic playing as ever. Album of the year #AOTY already? #MethenyIsMagic
