TOP 200 OF 2015 – 51-100 / 101-150 / 151-200 [/highlight]
26. Society of Silence – Baghdad
27. Rozi Plain – Actually
If you look up ‘beguiling’ in the dictionary it probably says ‘adjective: charming or enchanting, often in a deceptive way e.g. Rozi Plain’s utterly beguiling voice’.
28. Jamie xx – Loud Places
I go to those places
Where we used to go
They seem so quiet now”
29. DJ Khalab and Baba Sissoko – Kumu
The first fruits of an unexpected collaboration between Italian ‘Afro-Futurist beatmaker’ Khalab and revered Malian musician and Griot, Baba Sissoko. It’s a remarkable slice of haunting minimal house complete with ethereal effects, the ethereal West African vocals and what sounds like the bath left running in the background.
30. Jack Garratt – The Love You’re Given
31. Tech N9ne – Speedom (Wwc2) (Feat. Eminem and Krizz Kaliko)
32. Tate Kobang – Bank Rolls Remix
33. Wiley – From The Outside (Special Request VIP)
34. Raury feat. Big K.R.I.T. – Forbidden Knowledge
35. DRAM – Money
36. !!! – Freedom! ’15
37. Open Mike Eagle – Dark Comedy Late Show / Ziggy Starfish (Anti-Anxiety Raps)
I gave up and became a Spotify-er
Paying myself a fraction of a penny playing “Qualifiers”
38. Busdriver – Ministry of the Torture Couch Feat. Hemlock Ernst / Worlds to Run Feat. Milo and Anderson.Paak
Remember when we were radicals out there fanning them flames
Rooting out injustices in our family names
Cops measuring our grave plots in candy canes”
39. Drake – Hotline Bling
40. Chromatics – I can never be myself when you’re around
41. Brian Deady – A Darkness
42. Heems – Flag Shopping
