You might notice that there’s no episode announcement at the beginning of the December podcast. No “Transmission zero two two.” The idea is that this audiObelisk Transmission is a direct extension of last month’s, so in order for them better to flow together as one larger unit, I left it out. I don’t think that’s a make or break thing for anyone who might be interested enough to listen, but I just didn’t want it to seem like I forgot.

In fact, if you’re interested in hearing it all as one piece, I went ahead and spliced the two podcasts together into one larger one. You can get that file by clicking here. Damn thing is huge. Just under six hours of music and 53 artists total. Yeah, I know I said I was going to do 26 in each installment — but when it came time to actually put this all together, I just had to include one to grow on. When you see what the last song is in the tracklist after the jump, I think you’ll understand why I couldn’t leave it out.

There’s a massive amount of stuff to hear before you get there, though, and as I said last time, this is just barely scratching the surface of what 2011 had to offer. If I included everything, it would be 2013 before I got the post finished. These are just selections from albums that, for one reason or another, stood out to me. I hope you dig it and that nothing not included here strikes as too egregious.

We left off last time with Grayceon, so it seemed right to start here with Rwake and continue along the path of forward-looking sludge. At the risk of patting myself on the back, there’s a really solid flow to these tracks, and a really solid flow between the two podcasts. Never having done something this big before, spanning two months like this, I think the results are about the best I could hope for. Again, I hope you agree.

Stream audiObelisk Transmission 022 on the player above, or download by clicking the banner at the top of this post or here to go to the Archive.org page where the file is hosted. Special thanks to everyone who sent in records this year, as there would be no podcasts without physical sources to draw from. Full tracklist with time stamps is after the jump.
