Fediverse AOTY List – So Fedi, what albums got your attention in 2025? 🎧 🎶
Once again we’re compiling a Fediverse-wide, community-sourced Albums-of-The-Year (AOTY) list, of the albums – from any year – that rocked our worlds and got us through the last 12 months!
About 60 of us joined in last year and people seemed to like the idea of doing another round this year, so here we are! The call is open from now until the end of the year, then around New Years I’ll do up a blog post on the 1001 Other Albums site with the final list, complete with links to find the albums. You in?
The Rules:
1) Anyone with an account in the Fediverse can participate. I’ll include each submitter’s username in the final list, leaving off the instance unless asked to keep it in.
2) Reply/DM to this post with your top album(s) of the year, to a MAXIMUM of 3 per person. I also accept emails (johnmastodon@1001otheralbums.com) if you include your Fediverse username. You can also reply to the parallel toot on the automated account https://linernotes.club/@1001otheralbums.com@1001otheralbums.com.
👉 “Top” is absolutely however you want to define it – favourite, most listened to, most personally important, most thought about, most surprising find, representative of an artist you really got into, etc.👈
👉 “Of the year” does NOT have to mean the album was released in 2025. Your submissions can come from ANY year, so long as it was key in your 2025 listening.👈
3) The final list won’t be ranked or voted on, and will simply be ordered alphabetically. Multiple entries for the same album are most welcome and will be noted in the final list.
4) Notes/reasons for your picks aren’t necessary but totally welcome and, if included with your submission, I’ll probably put them in the footnotes like last year.
Feel free to boost this as widely as possible, I'd love as many people to join in as would like.
In the meantime, we’ll continue going through our 1001 Other Albums list and will have a handful of regular spotlights before the final Fedi AOTY list is posted. Also, a reminder that we're doing a Fedi-sourced blog post on January 8 celebrating the 10th anniversary of Bowie's Blackstar album - check out the pinned toot for details if you'd like to join in on that as well! 😎
Until then, hope you’re all enjoying AOTY season and (re)finding some great albums to get you through the rest of the year.

An impressive body of work
Four writers get credit on the 1930 copyright registration for "Body and Soul": composer Johnny Green, and lyricists Robert Sour, Edward Heyman, and Frank Eyton. But many more artists shaped the perennial jazz standard we know today.

It was a great honour for me to come to the concert hall to listen to the concert of the Ensemble Dmew - "Chinese Music to World" Series. I was exposed to lots of new playing techniques and broadened my horizon of contemporary music. Meanwhile, it's my first time to meet with those friends of Dmew at offline✌🏼.
I wish you all the best in your studies!
非常榮幸能來演奏廳現場聆聽當音室內樂團·世界華樂計劃的音樂會。我在此接觸到了許多新穎的演奏技法,開拓了對當代音樂的視野。同時,這是我首次在線下與當音的諸位朋友會面✌🏼。
祝各位朋友學業順利!

Italian violinist and composer Niccolò Paganini was born #OTD in 1782.
He was the most celebrated violin virtuoso of his time, and left his mark as one of the pillars of modern violin technique.

Soon, you'll be able to buy music on the Fediverse.
Bandwagon, the music-sharing platform built on Emissary, has seen a lot of success over the past few months. The site has grown to a catalogue of over 300 different musicians, spanning a wide range of different sounds and genres. After refining search and discovery features, project lead Ben Pate has decided to focus on introducing a payment system for music sales.
Just saw this sad news, in memory of Prof. Du Ya-xiong 🕯️
Mr. Du Ya-xiong was an outstanding musicologist in China. He researched and organised Chinese ethnic music theory and ethnic music, filling in many academic gaps. In addition, he also participated in the translation of foreign language monographs such as Twentieth-Century Harmony, and promoted the Chineseisation of the “Kodály Method”. He has left many valuable achievements for the music field.
剛看見這條悲痛的消息,緬懷杜亞雄教授🕯️
杜亞雄先生是中國傑出的音樂學家,他研究和整理了中國民族樂理及民族音樂,填補了許多學術上的空白。除此之外,他還參與翻譯了《二十世紀和聲學》等外語專著,推動「柯大宜教學法」中國化。為音樂界留下了諸多寶貴成果。

Dearest Fediverse,
Just today and tomorrow left where you can get my entire Bandcamp Discography for just €10! 14 albums of danceable dark #indie #rock sometimes #gothic kind of #industrial thumping but also sometimes psychedelic and punky #music. That's a hell of a lot of music.
The price goes back up in 2025!
Have a look at the reviews on Bandcamp!
Https://limneticvillains.bandcamp.com
Let me know what you think! Reposts help a lot. I'm trying to let my art live! It wants an audience. #bandcamp
Thanks!
Here's my 2020 album, various genres of electronic music!
it was made before the existence of #bonkwave, but some track have definite wave vibes, and also a bit of bonk feels, so I think all you bonkwave lovers will appreciate it.
And it's free, because heck bandcamp, lol 😁
