Best of 3 in March – End of Season #26

In March we had our Best of 3 as the final of Season 26.

Since Bionette and Philomela share a place, the individual selection was a little different than usual. Bionette chose Drew’s albums and Philomela chose those of Flinzstone and Schröder and presented a joint program of 15 songs.

Drew, Flinzstone and Schröder each chose 3 songs from Bionette and Philomela and 5 from the others. So Drew, Flinzstone and Schröder put together a playlist with 16 songs. The different playlists reflect our individual musical tastes. There were also some overlaps in this Best of 3, but no more than two songs.
The albums Make It Better / Rather Be Alone EP by the band CIEL and Tracey Denim by the band Bar Italia scored the most points, 87 each, this season. 2nd place went to the solo album Random Desire
