Embedded: Slow Thrills tracks of the year 2014

It's just like when Guns n Roses released Use Your Illusion I and II really, right down to the different coloured sleeves! Seriously though, I've put together TWO different "tracks of the year" mixes, both featuring music that I couldn't get enough of this year.
I'm not sure what this says about 2014, but neither mix has a strong overlap with the Albums of the Year or the Gigs of the Year, both of which will be on here in the next day or so. Meanwhile, feel free to dip in out of the three hours of music embedded below, it is conveniently timestamped.
