Sleepy
just look it up (my choices) in the 2018 in PA top 2018 list.
Ying Yang
let's just stay above the moral melee
prefer the sink to the gutter
keep our sand-castle virtues
content to be a doer
as well as a thinker,
prefer lifting our pen
rather than un-sheath our sword

Still enough material for 2018, at least if I fill in some stuff that isn't here but should be... in 2019 and 2020 the air will get thinner.

Art Zoyd - Phase V
Sonar & David Torn - Vortex
Soft Machine - Hidden Details
Fred Frith Trio - Closer to the Ground
Patrizio Fariselli - 100 Ghosts
Irmin Schmidt - 5 Klavierstuecke
Us, Today - Computant
ZOFFF - FFF
God is an Astronaut - Epitaph
All Traps On Earth - A Drop of Light

To fill in for the two artists not listed on PA:
Far Corner - Risk
PinioL - Bran Coucou
(I have heard both of these once, maybe they deserve to be in the top 10.)
Generally now it starts to hit that I explore things often with some delay. There are several 2018 albums by artists I like that I haven't heard yet.
