Notes from the Archive: Recordings 2011–2016 is the first compilation album by American singer-songwriter Maggie Rogers. It was released digitally by Rogers' imprint Debay Sounds on December 18, 2020, and released on CD and vinyl on April 23, 2021.[2]
The 16-track collection consists of various songs written and recorded before her breakthrough hit "Alaska" was released in 2016. It is split into four parts: her 2016 rock EP, the 2014 demo Blood Ballet, her work with the Del Water Gap, and the 2012 demo The Echo.[3]
Critical reception
Heather Phares, writing for AllMusic, praised the songs from Blood Ballet and Rogers' songwriting but said that "One More Afternoon" and "Together" "sound a little cluttered compared to the compilation's later tracks".[1]
