How do you keep an overview about the countless new releases in the world of music? Well, easier said than done but thank god the staff of NBHAP keeps an overview. In this column one from the team personnally reflects on the past four weeks and the music that matters during this time. For the start of this new column it's the turn of NBHAP head Norman to ramble about our favourite passion in the world.
Another year goes by and it was... well, definitely different than the last one but still quite weird. The second consecutive Covid year was a rollercoaster ride of emotions where hope and despair went hand in hand and we're surely finished yet. Luckily, this resulted in quite outstanding musical releases which gave us much needed comfort and distraction in these difficult times. Today, we're honouring the fifty records that meant the most to us in the past twelve months.
In search of cool vibes for increasing temperatures and - hopefully - declining Covid case numbers? Don't look any further since we got yourself covered with our extremely smooth summer playlist including tracks by The Avalanches, Poolside, Jorja Smith, Peggy Gou, Khruangbin, Four Tet and a few other hidden treasures.
British experimental electronic producer Kieran Hebden aka FOUR TET is always good for a surprising rework of a mainstream artist. Last year he reworked a track by JUSTIN TIMBERLAKE, today comes a remix for US pop singer LANA DEL REY. Hebden got his hands on latest single West Coast.
