Lately things got a bit calm around Ariana Grande. The singer did not only avoid public appeareances after finishing her Dangerous Woman World Tour in September 2017, but shut down most of her social media activity since the beginning of this year as well.

NBHAP editor Louisa attended the colourful fiesta in Barcelona, that will hopefully lead the way for more inclusive festivals.
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 Top 25 tunes include classics by Tame Impala, Bon Iver, Robyn, M83, Lorde, James Blake and more.
Hyped British indie band ALT-J presents their new single Hunger Of The Pine. It’s the first musical teaser off their just announced upcoming second album This Is All Yours.
