"Green Light" -Lorde

Disclaimer: I love Lorde, and this piano ballad is fantastic. The music perfectly compliments the tone of the song, and the slight vocal effects that Lorde uses only serve to further what's going on in Lorde's mind.

"No One Knows Me Like the Piano" -Sampha

If you haven't heard Sampha's newest album: GO LISTEN TO IT!!! Sampha carries so much soulful emotion in his voice. On top of that, his piano playing is fantastic and his lyricism brings him to new heights.

"Too Much" -Drake ft. Sampha

Honestly, I really only like this song because Drake talks about Houston and I have a strange pride for my birthplace. However, I think the beat is really nice and Sampha is great. Drake's bars are pretty classic Drake, so if you're into that then it's a pretty great song.

"Doug Stamper" -Open Mike Eagle ft. Hannibal Buress

Yes that Hannibal Buress.

"All Caps" -MF DOOM

I love DOOM. And his collaboration album with Madlib is my all time favorite album. I highly suggest everyone give this a shot.

"Snowing" -Daggerfall Soundtrack

This is my favorite video game (for many more reasons than I could fit in this small blurb) and the music is absolutely captivating. It added so much to the atmosphere of the game. I especially love this song because you can almost here the influence for the Skyrim main theme (which would make sense given that the province of Skyrim is kinda snowy).
