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.
Debuting with a fascinating genre-bending record, Anglo-Irish musician Hugh Sheehan takes the listener by their hand and guides them through the exploration of queerness in all its nuances. NBHAP author Giulia Leonarduzzi had an in-depth talk about the debut album.
The Irish rap group KNEECAP make their origin story into a film filled to the brim with hedonistic adventures and rebellious attitude. Winning critical acclaim, the movie proudly celebrates Irish heritage today. "KNEECAP" will premiere in the German cinemas on January 30th. Felicia Aghaye reports back from the preview.
Irish singer songwriter Conor O’ Brien aka VILLAGERS gets quite literal in his new music video Earthly Pleasure. And it’s a very surreal experience. Starting with reduced images of a man sitting on a toilet we switch over to a battleground of the 19th century, a bath tube and … well, space. But somehow it all goes quite well together. The track is taken from {Awayland}, the new VILLAGERS album which was released back in January. Watch the new clip right here.
