Freerange Records founder Jamie Odell is both a great label-owner and house-producer. Under his alias “Jimpster”, the brilliant “Alsace & Lorraine” came out in September, and immediately became a part of my itunes and decks.

I said earlier that 2 vocal-sample-based tracks turned out to outshine my summer. That’s True, but Gold Panda really outshined the whole year. It took me some time to understand his album Lucky Shiner, but for me, it now stands as a little masterpiece. His Live-set at Dunkel earlier this year turned out to one of the best live-act I’ve seen in a long, and I’m really looking forward to see what we will get from the panda in 2011.

Gold Panda, You

I don’t know what it is about the 21-year-old London-producer, but I simply can’t stop listening to his music. James Blakes combination of post-dubstep elements and soulful vocal (Samples or his own voice) works great in the cold winter. He is releasing his first full-length album “James Blake” in the start of 2011, and I will of cause do a review.

Beach House is not really an electronic act, but their album “Teen Dream“ is the most played 2010 album in my itunes.
So it’s pretty simple. The Album is outstanding and combined with an incredible act on Roskilde and a very good performance at Vega in November, Beach House became the band, doing the greatest impact on my 2010.

Happy New Year

What They Say? They say that Maya Jane Coles is a huge talent. But seriously? Greeks, Chinese and now a half-Japanese girl in house music. What to do? Well there is nothing to do, cause I know what they say, and I’m saying it to: Maya Jane Coles rocked my world this year. Her newest EP “Humming Bird” is really cozy and combined with some of her other releases this year, M.J really deserves to be mention in 2010.

Ost & fucking kjex. I was smashed when they released their album “Cajun Lunch” (Read my review here) earlier this year. Their live-act at Dunkel were brilliant and I’m still digging the shit out of this album.

“If you put on your “vocal-sample-music”-glasses, 2010 must be one of the most interesting music-years in a long time. Through your glasses you will be able to see artists like James Blake, Four Tet, Gold Panda and our own Eim Ick. All of them deserve a lot of credit, but for now, my focus will be on the “sun”. Cause through my glasses two “sun”-tracks turned out to outshine my summer.

Nicolas Jaar, is one of my favorites producers, I almost like everything he have touched.
“I Got A Woman” is a track from his new album “Space Is Only Noise” that will me released the 14 of February. I have had the opportunity to hear the whole album, and you can start to look forward to it, because it’s so good.
Until the release you can start with this track, which is one of my favorite from the new album.
Enjoy!

Theodor will the last weeks of the this year, present his  personal Top 10 of 2010. The music on the list is what he has heard and made him listen a extra time.
As all top 10 lists, we will start from number 10 and countdown to number 1. Each post will be with 2 tracks, so let’s start the countdown, by giving Theodor the word!

Paradoxical I’m not really a big fan of the whole “top-of-the-year-thing”, and yet I’m beginning this evening with 10 & 9 of the year. It’s important for me to say, that this top-10 is a credit to some of the house/techno/electronica-artists who did a great impact on my iTunes and decks in 2010, more than a “This is overall the absolute best tracks of 2010”.

Berlin-based Greek And.Id touched my balls, when he released his EP “I Will Be There” earlier this year. Especially with “Erotica” Andreas Dimitriadis proved that house can be both catchy & groovy and at the same time intelligent produced with a feeling for details. “Erotica” got the sound of a banger and the feeling of dirty underground. Perfect combination in the Copenhagen nightlife!

And.Id – Erotica

Greece and House? It sounds weird but my number 9 of 2010 is actually also greek. With releases on Freerange, Global Underground and Plastic City (Just to mention a few) Nikola Gala is not to be missed. Nikola Gala seems to have a crush on bongo drums and I’m not really a Bongo-lover. Bad match, but then this track came out of the 30 year old greek, and I felt in love. Keep Walking is like sophisticated ibiza-pool-music. The groove and build-ups are perfect, but still the most incredible thing about the track is the vibe. The dreamy soundscape and the pitched vocals are working perfect together in creating a warm and cozy vibe, perfect for the cold winter.
I’m still in love.
