As it’s Christmas…My top 20 tracks of 2010 (inc. Spotify playlist link)

So I finally got round to doing my top 100 tracks of the year on Itunes. For me, it has been a fantastic year for electronic music. Some fantastic artists ike Gold Panda, James Blake, and Warpaint have emerged, whilst follow up albums from Caribou, Massive Attack, Flying Lotus and Bonobo have been excellent. 

Other highlights this year have been Arcade Fire, Bad Religion and Deftones’ new albums, as well as Alain Johannes’ awesome long awaited debut. I’m sure there’s many people I’m forgetting, but let just say the standard of music has been WAY up from last.

Bonobo’s ‘Black Sands’ album is by a strecth my album of the year and probably one of my favorite albums of all time. It’s just utterly awesome. Mixing many different ambient and mellow electronic tones, whilst supported by Andreya Triana’s equsite vocals. She too has had a great year, following work with Flying Lotus and Bonobo, she released her own solo album ‘lost where I belong’.

Anyway, there was no way I could be bothered to type out my top 100, and then create it on spotify, so here’s my top 20. I’ll get round to doing my ten albums of 2010 at some point as well. Enjoy!
