This year, as was the case with every single year since 2008, I'm going to recap the year in music and name the best I've heard this year- this I shall call my music awards and, more specifically, this year's awards will be named – like in 2013 and 2014 – "AeMu". What's new in 2015? Well, the location: for the first time ever, my music awards will move from the old "Aesthetiški medžiai" blog to this new shiny (well, not so much) "Aesthetic Trees" blog. Well, apart from that, everything's going to be as usual – same nominations, same system. I may note that this year's awards might well be the last... I've struggled to find motivation to follow in the footsteps of my old self, who started this end of year melodrama, but I want to give you one last single glance into my musical world to finalise a marvellous lineage of awards in a positive way (and, after all, maybe I won't be giving up just yet).
