The best of 2011

With my co-writer, Peter, who has joined the 365 lately, I have been thinking about and working on a yearlist of 31 songs. These 31 songs represent our personal preferences of the best music that came out in 2011. Most of these songs have been mentioned on this blog before, some however have not. The list is in random order, but If I had to make a top 5 for 2011 it would be the following list:

1. M83 - Midnight City -Great representative of the French electronic sound. Perfect kick, perfect hit.. Good song to energize and dream off with.

2. Studio Killers - Ode to the bouncer
Love it. Posted it 1.5 month ago and gets better every time I hear it.

3. Elbow - Lippy KidsAfter their brilliant performance at Lowlands this one had to be in (for 1,5 hour I just kept looking at the stage at which were playing) Great band that finally gets what they deserve

4. Jon Allen - Think of You
My personal favorite singer-songwriter. Great guy from the UK. Seen him for the third time this year in Amsterdam and again amazing. Guy that really knows how to touch me..

5. Jamie Woon - ShouldaSimple, but wonderfull and touching...

Have a great one tomorrow evening and we hope you're ready for some nice, fresh and energetic music in 2012 with 365singles. We will have a lot of nice surprises for you the coming year so stay tuned..
