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 first 25 tracks include Frank Ocean, Flying Lotus, David Bowie, Vampire Weekend, Lorde, The Weeknd, FKA Twigs and more.
The beloved open air event in Germany delivers yet another outstanding line-up including The xx, Florence + The Machine, Fever Ray, Jon Hopkins, Tune-Yards, Tyler, The Creator, Cigarettes After Sex, Little Dragon and many more. Time to raise excitement with a really special mixtape.
While his main band THE XX currently takes a little break, sound mastermind JAMIE XX stays active. The producer will release a new double single – Girl/Sleep Sound – on May 5 via longtime label Young Turks.
