As we inch closer to the start of a new year, DJs and directors at Aggie Radio reflect on what our favorite music to play during the past 12 months has been. Both on-air and music for our drives home, during our long study sessions and when we just needed something to get our bodies moving. The result is a list of our top 25 albums in 2018, complete with a recommended track from each release.
