Browsing through my hypebot newsletter (note: please sign up if you aren’t already), I stumbled upon this article, which pissed me off for two reasons: I think I am a reliable authority on new music, which is directly connected to the second reason, that the magazines didn’t ask me when polling for their list.
Anyways, here are my lists:
everything
10 gnarles barkley – the odd couple
9 jamie lidell – jim
8 q-tip – the renaissance
7 tv on the radio – dear science *recent addition to the list
6 fleet foxes – fleet foxes
5 dj shadown & cut chemist – the hard sell
4 devotchka – a mad and faithful telling
3 black keys – attack & release
2 m83 – saturdays=youth
1 ray lamontagne – gossip in the grain
honorable mention: lykke li – youth novel and sigur ros – me› su› í eyrum vi› spilum endalaust
ropeadope digital top 10
10 otis grove – crank it up
9 jd73 – zeros and ones
8 blue method – kill the music, volume 2
7 silences sumire – return is selective
6 bodega – bounce
5 rabnett 5 – leopardism
4 tim collins – fade
3 japhy ryder – no consequence
2 paradigm – melodies for uncertain robots
1 carlon – johari window
Feel free to praise or refute my list and email me yours.
