Optic Echo Presents

Best Vinyl of 2014

And, as it has been an annual tradition for Headphone Commute for the last four years, we round off this year with a very special vinyl-only mix by Mike Jedlicka of Optic Echo, incorporating his favorite selections of the year. This is indeed a very special last-minute treat, before we unleash upon you our end of the year lists, and then begin the cycle anew. And although music does not know its date of birth (nor truly end of days), this time of year is full of reflection, serving like a mental bookmark in your trip through time. Happy New Year!
