Here's a partial lise of non-metal albums I considered for my top 10. Albums listen in (pretty much) alphabetical order.
Colin Stetson - All This I Do For Glory - Electronic and Bass Saxomophone.
Eddie Palmieri - Sabiduria - Lost track of him since 2005's Listen Here. Good latin jazz.
Eivør - Slør - English version, doesn't count as a new release really.
Ibeyi - Ash - What kept this off my top ten is the (small) use of autotune.
Jojo Mayer & Nerve - Nerve - Doesn't translate as well recorded as it does live.
Kaitlyn Aurelia Smith - The Kid - Avant electronic.
Kelly Clarkson - Meaning of Life - Way better than the previous album.
Kendrick Lamar - DAMN. - Still overrated...but still good.
Laurel Halo - Dust - Weird electronic thing.
Mike Stern - Trip - Jazzy jazz guitar fusion.
Psychic Equalizer - The Lonely Traveller - Dances the line between Steven Wilson and jazz.
Ronald Bruner Jr. - Triumph - Slightly off kilter R&B with a drummer focus.
Run the Jewels - Run the Jewels 3 - Technically released digitally in 2016, disappointing.
Susanne Sundfør - Music for People in Trouble - Departure from synthpop.
Talib Kweli - Radio Silence - Rap Hops.
The Physics House Band - Mercury Fountain - Electronic prog jazz fusiony band.
Vijay Iyer Sextet - Far From over - Almost proggy avant piano jazz.
Yazz Ahmed - La Saboteuse - Trumpet with Arabic scales.
