Musik: Året som gått 161015 - 171015

För internt kom-ihåg
senaste årets 100 mest spelade låtar
som hämtats hem från iTunes.


1 FREDDIE WADLING - Nu Lyfter Vi Från Marken (2017)
”Nu lyfter vi från marken” är en utsökt spartansk låt om att försöka hitta ljus i mörkret.
Videoregissören Joakim Söderberg säger till Aftonbladet:
– Sången handlar om själens ömtålighet.
Jag ville komma i kontakt med människor med egna erfarenheter av psykisk ohälsa för att gestalta detta.
Radio Totalnormal, som jobbar för en större öppenhet runt detta ämne,
hjälpte mig att hitta sju underbara människor
som jag och min fotograf Adam Nilsson har porträtterat.



2 JESSE MALIN - Meet Me At The End Of The World (2017)
Jesse Malin performs "Meet Me At The End of The World" live in Studio A. Recorded 6.26.17.



3 SUNSET NEON - Never Dance Again (2017)
"Born out of the screen glow flicker of late night VHS tapes and 80's radness,
Sunset Neon is the new project from multi-genre artist/producer Blue Stahli
that combines Synthwave, glitchy Nu Disco, chill lo-fi nostalgia, catchy pop melodies, midnight power anthems and the atmosphere of hazy neon-lit dreamscapes."



4 GABRIEL BRUCE - Come All Sufferers (2016)
"Come All Sufferers bursts out of darkness and skitters
and slips joyfully into a major key riot, turning its doom-laden refrain into a message of unity.
It's a record, stylistically diverse, emotionally grandiose,
full of artistic ambition,
held together by that paradoxical relationship between anger and optimism."(Felix Petty on i-D)



5 KASABIAN - Bless This Acid House (2017)
"It waas the last song that was recorded on the album 'For Crying Out Loud'.
I was at Mick Pickering´s house and he hada poster that said "Bless this acid house"
and I wrote it on my phone.
In the 70´s you could hear a lot of tunes referencing rock'n'roll from the 50's
so I thought that was interesting me referencing acid house, which is now
20-odd years old." (Serge Pizzorno, guitarist on Radio X).

6 CLOUDS AND THORNS - Every Heart (2017)
Clouds and Thorns is Rich Andruska from Hazlet, New Jersey.
Bright and sunny modern folk-pop with driving,
stomping, crowd-singing, epic choruses and uplifting lyrics.
