Come Back Through | DOMINIONATED December 2022
A Message from DOMINIONATED
It seems like the more we anticipate the start of a new year, the more it feels like we hardly had enough time with the one that's about to end. And so it goes with 2022, a year that saw a lot of change for DOMINIONATED. Back in June, we changed up our organizational model and brought on a whole new group of eager Contributors and Volunteers who've worked to bring an eclectic and interesting mix of music to our various content channels. We hope over the last year, DOMINIONATED has helped you discover new favourites and reignited your passion for familiar favourites. By now, you've most likely already seen and read our annual Favourite Fifty albums of 2022 list. As has been the tradition with our December newsletter, we're sharing with you the full list of albums our team considered for this year's list.
Whether you subscribed to the newsletter this year, liked a post, retweeted a link, or subscribed to our Patreon PRESS PLAY program this year, your engagement with, interest in, and support for what we do is greatly appreciated. It means the world to us to know that you're out there on the other end of this electronic communication.
Warmest of wishes, everyone! See you in 2023! Team DOMINIONATED
