I'm probably missing some, but I've enjoyed pretty much everything coming out of those labels. :D

Wow too many to name

But I think I came to the conclusion yesterday that 2600 Records and Night Drive Music may just be my 2 favorite labels atm.

Duh, those labels have been putting out good music for a while :p

For me I've been enjoying discovering new and old stuff on labels I hadn't known much about before like Plug Research, Guidance, Late Night Audio, Mojuba

I went through Plug Research' catalog on beatport the other night and bought like 15 tracks.

Yeah, I know that now. But a little over a year ago I didn't know most of them even existed. :p

I've been listening a lot to albums released on Dial.

All the labels you have listed put out music that I've only gotten fully into in the last half year or so, and as such are the labels I've been religiously following/trawling through their back catalogues this year. I would have to say Contexterrior would be the standout label over the last while for me, seems every single release is an absolute bomb, particularly the Shonky and Dachshund releases.

Forgot to add the dutch labels like Remote Area, Intacto, and particularly 100% Pure, been going through their back catalogues recently and been finding absolute gems.
Paradox Lost
ROSH!
Minimal and Melodies Music
Plusquam Division
Underground Lessons
Silver Screen Recordings
Meerestiefe
Feiyr

Just a few standouts that have been really resonating with me this year.

Urbantorque also seems to have really picked things up.

Speaking of UrbanTorque, I wonder what they've got in store for their 100th release
Lews
Armada
Ajunabeats
Black Hol-

Oh, FAVORITE labels.

Uh. Lately I've just been buying up a lot of music from the 90s and early 2000s. I've been staying away from too much new stuff, focusing more on getting older stuff I've missed over the years.
