Although the same number of new tracks is released on Spotify as in other parts of the year, the quality shows the end of 2018 is near. Or perhaps it’s just me getting more critical as another great music year is drawing to a close 😉.

Anyhow, last week I only added brand new songs by Alice Merton, Def Leppard, Joe Jackson, MØ (feat. Foster The People) and a few others to my constantly updated Carte Blanche Music playlist.

The absolute highlights, however, are reserved for Werner’s Weekly, your compass to the music that matters. The links point to my earlier recommendations, and all of the tracks are in the Werner’s Weekly player in the sidebar for your listening pleasure as well.

• The Lighthouse – Catch Fire (Wildcard this week)
• Starcrawler – Hollywood Ending (Wildcard last week)
• Bent Van Looy – Make Believe
• Caezar – Somewhere New
• Corine – Un Air De Fête
• Jenifer – Hey Jen
• The Smashing Pumpkins – Alienation
