As festivals navigate economic uncertainties and changing audience dynamics, we question the future of these cultural spaces and their potential for fostering inclusivity and artistic exploration.

As this decade is approaching its end it is time for a little reflection on all the great music we experienced over the course of it. Of course, this is NOT an ultimate and universal Top 100 list. It simply can't be but these are the songs you should definitely give a spin before the decade is over. The first 25 tracks include Frank Ocean, Flying Lotus, David Bowie, Vampire Weekend, Lorde, The Weeknd, FKA Twigs and more.
Every Friday music fans are faced with the same burning question: What to listen to from the sheer endless sea of new albums, EPs and other releases?

Not a day without a news about hyped newcomer FKA TWIGS. Yesterday she scored ‘Sound of the Day‘ on NOTHING BUT HOPE AND PASSION, today she unveils a new music video. Tw-Ache is a remix of her song Ache which won’t be featured on the recently announced first full-length album LP1. The clip sees the artist unfolding herself in a ritual-like dance choreography, next to other talented dancers. Looks like FKA TWIGS is also a crafted singer. Witness the clip right here via Dazed.
