Howdy,

after several celebrations and reminders that certain holidays are on the way... it's time to look back at last week in music. ^^
To give you a picture there should be... a picture:


Most played artists:

> John Mayer : Besides the new tracks from his album "Battle Studies" I also re-discovered "The Village Sessions" which is an EP with mellow acoustic versions of some of his best songs.

> Kylie Minogue : Some songs of her new live album "Kylie Live In New York" are fantastic. And I really like the studio version of the Steve Anderson Mix of "Speakerphone". Next to "Boombox/Can't Get Blue Monday Out Of My Head" this is on my favorite Kylie tracks these days.

> Port O'Brien : Last week I was listening to their "Threadbare" album a couple of times. There are some wonderful tunes among those songs. But it's still kind of hard to tell for me which tracks are most outstanding.

> Traveling Wilburys : Do you still remember them? Yep, this group of talents has become a steady evergreen on my playlist - in fact their music seems very timeless to me. Last week I used their tunes as background music for playing card games because of that feature.

Most played tracks:

> ¡Happy Birthday Guadalupe! by The Killers : even though it might sound a bit odd because of the southern style it's a kind of contrast to the classic Christmas themed songs which are played on the radio and so on these days.

> I'm on Fire by John Mayer : Still one of the best calm tracks I can imagine at the moment. That is why I like listening to it.

> Dangerous by Deep Insight : I guess that is one of the best things I got to know while watching the last MTV Europe Music Awards. This song is incredibly catchy :-)

So... now you've seen that I'm currently not really in Christmasy mood (except that exotic Killers song which could probably seen as protest ^^ ). And apart from that there has been little news since last week. But I predict changes... :-P

CU and have nice holidays

Obligatory sentence that expresses disgust, disdain and disapproval of shitty shit shit music released this year.

To be perfectly honest, though, I wanna say there was a boatload of great shit that came out this year, but I'm not too sure anymore. Still, teh shit that I did enjoy, I enjoyed a whole fucking lot. Like, teh artists who came through with dope shit came with that front-to-back album chock-full-of-goodness type dope shit.

So, while this edition of teh Year in Review continues in teh tradition of having only two categories, I suppose some elaboration on teh uber-favourites will offer some insight into teh dopeness of teh dopeness.


ZOMG DIS IZ LYKE SOOOOO FULL OV TEH AWESOME!

Dam-Funk - Toeachizown
A crazy mix of some dope soul/space/funk shit, Toeachizown demands you to roll up and blaze to it for the entire two hours.

Electric Wire Hustle - Electric Wire Hustle
Now this is what (post-?)(modern-?)neo-soul should sound like, yes?

Exile - Radio
A great achievement in instrumental music, Exile displays his mastery of the MPC and his incredible ear for samples.

Fashawn - Boy Meets World
Boy Meets World is almost like a loose sequel to Blu & Exile's Below the Heavens. Almost. Regardless of teh comparisons, what's important is taht Fash kills it, and Exile comes thru with some serious heat.

J Dilla - Jay Stay Paid
Yup, obvious inclusion of Dilla is obvious. I don't give a fuck. The beats bang, the features bang, so that's that.

Little Dragon - Machine Dreams
A little more dancy and upbeat than their debut, Machine Dreams maintains teh atmospheric beauty of their sound while pounding even moar synth-heavy goodness without ever missing a beat. And ZOMG, seeing Yukimi and teh gang perform live was just epic.

Madlib - Beat Konducta Vol. 5-6
BKvol5-6 gets a mention here because I actually officially copped the shit in 2009, even though I loved the hell out of teh leak in 2008.

Metric - Fantasies
This is far and away my favourite Metric album. Everything about it is So Succexy.

Mos Def - The Ecstatic
The Mighty Mos' take on DOOM's model of music making shows him in top form. Casa Bey is that crack. Not to mention the Ruler's cameo appearance is worth the price of admission alone.

Nicolay - City Lights Vol. 2: Shibuya
Genre-bending seems to be name of the game for my favourite crew of musicians, The Foreign Exchange. Whatever teh classification, this album is perfect for any time of day no matter where you might find, or lose, yourself.

Raekwon - Only Built 4 Cuban Linx Pt. II
Though rap album sequels are generally fail, Raekwon does not disappoint on this one. In fact, this album is an amazing follow up to teh O.G., banging beats and crazy ill drug raps ftw. I needs the instrumental to Surgical Gloves in my life.

Robert Glasper - Double Booked
Dope jazz? Check. Dope hip-hop fusion with jazz? ZOMG. Though admittedly, I'm not always in teh mood for straight up jazz shit, this album cannot be denied.

(Also, I absolutely HATE that Robert Glasper's collabo with Bilal is pitted against The Foreign Exchange's Daykeeper in teh Grammies. Like, DAMN.)

The Roots - Late Night with Jimmy Fallon Sandwiches EP
Only 22 of 1000, but fuggit -- these free! goodies from The Legendary show that quality and diversity do not have to compromise. Hopefully that new Roots album will not be postponed anymoar.

Slug & Murs - Felt 3: A Tribute to Rosie Perez
Sluggo and MURS got a whole album produced by.. Aesop muthafuckin' Rock? Wait, wat? Though 22 tracks may be a bit overkill, these dudes did the damn thing. Again, the instros to this shit would be oh so good, cuz Aes done brought that BASS FO' YO' TRUNK.

Tanya Morgan - Brooklynati
I really really really liked this album, really. All iller and no filler, teh TM crew shine. Prime example of how an album of front-to-back dopeness could and should be made.

Zo! - ...just visiting too
Yet moar amazing covers from The Foreign Exchange crew. Zo! & 'em Love the 90's? I hope so.


Yes, this is also good.
