Bon Iver, aka musician Justin Vernon has already dappled in melancholic folk, experimental electronica, and artsy pop arrangements. Now, with his latest release 'i,i' he fuses pieces from the previous works to one impressive work of art. Time for NBHAP editor Miriam Wallbaum to reflect on the talented musician's legacy.
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.
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.
Last year THE FLAMING LIPS and BON IVER collaborate for the compilation The Flaming Lips and Heady Fwends in form of the track Ashes In The Air – today they present us a video clip for this song. And what can we say – this is really one of the most weird music videos we recently had the pleasure of watching. It includes a spaceman without head (but with an eye), a singing baby, a lot of blood and strange light effects. Watch it down below and make up your own mind.
