2012–2017

2012–2017 is an album by Against All Logic, an alias sometimes used by American electronic music artist Nicolás Jaar, which released on February 17, 2018. Considered by some to be a compilation, it is Jaar's third studio album, and the first under the "Against All Logic" name, which he has used since 2013. It was published by his own label Other People.

The album is a collection of house tracks Jaar had produced within the titular years. Some publicly debuted with its release, while others were on a mix he put out in 2016. 2012–2017's compositions are usually built around chopped soul and funk samples that repeat for much of the songs' run times. Jaar made strong use of production effects like clipping, filters, and fades, creating sonic "textures" that play alongside the main instrumentals. The album is less experimental and more upbeat than his prior works.

Jaar uploaded the album to Other People's website with almost no warning or promotion from him or the label, which continued after release. Pitchfork publicized its existence a week later, writing that "almost nobody" had noticed it existed. 2012–2017 then received critical acclaim, being listed by many outlets as one of the best albums of 2018. In 2020, Jaar released a follow-up under the Against All Logic name, 2017-2019.
