Ummagma has enjoyed a relationship of mutual admiration with Terapija.net since they
first reviewed our debut albums
'Antigravity' and 'Ummagma', released together in 2012 (the English version is
here). Since this is clearly a website that embraces multiple genres and indie bands, including international ones, we were thrilled when they asked us to put together our 'Best of 2014' list for Terapija.net. Here you will find, in no specific order, what we see as the year's best EPs, LPs, singles, synthpop/electronica releases & indie record labels. The music is all over the board and the artists are from all over the globe. We love diversity. Wishing a prosperous 2015 to Terapija.net and to all its readers, and sincerely so to all the artists and labels below, who have made our lives that much more enjoyable - wishing you all continued inspiration this year. Also special thanks to Jill Beaulieu of Meter Bridge and Del Chaney from Primal Radio & Analogue Wave for introducing me to loads of new synthpop and shoegaze respectively.
