Picking up where Part 1 left off, this episode moves through the second half of 2025, July through November, and the music that stayed as the year unfolded. Month by month, I revisit the albums, artists, and sounds that surprised me and lingered longer. As I move into 2026, this felt like the right moment to absorb instead of move on...a clean close to 2025 before stepping fully into 2026!
