Best of 2019 (Vince's List)

2019 might have been a quiet year at Stille, but we thrive in the quiet. It was a busy year for us personally - raising a child and starting new day jobs take up a lot of time and energy. As always, listening to new music keeps us grounded through the changes. Here are the my 25 favorite records of the past year.

Highlighting exciting new music is a mission of Stille. Check out something below that you haven’t heard before; everything is highly recommended. We look forward to bringing you new & rare records in 2020.
