The Hottest Shit in 2007
I feel obliged to do a “best of 2007” list too, like everyone else on the entire Internet. I spent way too much (or not enough, depending on your point of view) money on music, mostly downloads. The thought was (and is), why spend all that extra money on CDs and vinyl when the first thing I do is rip them to 256 kbps AAC? So, the thought continued, I’d rather pay less for more. Or something. ANYWAY, here’s the list of my favorite releases from 2007, in no particular order (top 10? Fuck that!). Some are obvious, some aren’t, I hope.
- Comtron: ”Follow The Money”
- The Field: ”From Here We Go Sublime”
- LCD Soundsystem: ”Sound Of Silver”
- Lindstrøm & Prins Thomas: ”Reinterpretations”
- DJ Tameil & Tim Dolla: ”The Dew Doo Ronomy EP”
- Various: ”Speicher CD 3”
- The Millioners: ”Most Sexiest Music”
- Alva Noto: ”Xerrox Vol.1”
- Cobblestone Jazz: ”23 Seconds”
- South Rakkas Crew: ”Mix Up”
- Scorn: ”Stealth”
- The Field: ”Sound Of Light”
- Matthew Dear: ”Asa Breed”
There we go! Here’s hoping that 2008 will be as awesome musically as 2007 was.
