Ten years of music, ten personal stories. The writers of NBHAP are given the opportunity to resume about the records that excited them the most during the past decade. This is a subjective reflection rather than an ultimate conclusion. This time long time editor Miriam Wallbaum presents you her reflections on the past years.
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.
This February iconic French music robots Daft Punk surprisingly announced their break-up with a silent farewell video and like many other electronic music lovers NBHAP head Norman is quite sad to see the duo vanish and decided to pay them tribute with a personal set featuring the brightest tunes of over two decades of groundbreaking sounds along with personal reflections on their impact on him.
British songwrter trio DAUGHTER present one of the most interesting cover versions we heard in a while. The group around Elena Tonra did their very own version of Get Lucky, the all-hyped comeback single by French electro robots DAFT PUNK. And while the original got this certain retro disco drive, DAUGHTER – who released their debut album If You Leave recently – give it the expected melancholic twist. A very pleasant result which you can experience right here.
