On Level 61 of My Little Underground, Peter A takes a trip back 15 years to 2005 to discuss some of the great tunes that came out that year and well they have aged. He'll discuss interesting singles such as the ubiquitous "We Belong Together" from Mariah Carey, the eternal party anthem, "Pon de Replay" from Rihanna and one of the best album intros, "Extraordinary Machine" from Fiona Apple. The south definitely had something to say in 2005 with Jeezy's 'Thug Motivation 101' creating the foundation of the Atlanta trap sound that dominates hip hop today. Foo Fighters released their risky double album, 'In Your Honor' with one disc featuring 10 loud rock tunes and another featuring 10 acoustic tracks. 2005 also say the return of Quasimoto, Danger Doom and MF Doom team up and more!

Peter also goes through some of his favorite Bandcamp exclusive releases since the outbreak started and more!

This was also the year of noise-pop/shoegaze revival acts such Dum Dum Girls & A Sunny Day In Glasgow. 2010 also saw the continued rise of the Atlanta trap sound with acts such as Waka Flocka Flame.
