What to listen to once the sun has settled? Our delicate selection includes Cigarettes After Sex, The xx, The National, Depeche Mode, Burial, Trentemøller, Leonard Cohen, The Cure and many more.
Although this decade isn't entirely over yet we still like to already take a look back on its musical highlight. And especially the independent music scene seems to fully freed itself from any limitations and boundaries during these ten years, resulting in quite some memorable musical moments we'd like to share with you.
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 next 25 tracks in our list include Daughter, Kendrick Lamar, Editors, Blood Orange, Metronomy and more.
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.
