Albums:

1. The Knife - Shaking the Habitual

I'm not usually so excited to listen to very long albums, at least at first. This one floored me from the start though. Strangely beautiful in so many places, for me especially in "A Cherry On Top".

2. Kanye West - Yeezus
3. Daft Punk - Random Access Memories

Both of these took a while to crawl up to the high end of my list. When I heard them first I guess my instinct was to compare them to both the artists respective previous work, and wasn't willing to put them on the same level. Gained more admiration toward them much later in the year.

4. Deafheaven - Sunbather
5. Julia Holter - Loud City Song
6. Disclosure - Settle
7. My Bloody Valentine - m b v
8. Chance the Rapper - Acid Rap
9. Arcade Fire - Reflektor
10. Run the Jewels - Run the Jewels
11. Vampire Weekend - Modern Vampires of the City
12. Phosphorescent - Muchacho
13. Janelle Monae - The Electric Lady
14. Burial - Rival Dealer EP
15. Haim - Days Are Gone
16. The National - Trouble Will Find Me
17. Julianna Barwick - Nepenthe
18. Laura Marling - Once I Was An Eagle
19. Savages - Silence Yourself
20. James Blake - Overgrown

The top seven I think were definitely up a level from the rest for me, those are decidedly my favorites.

:scared-eek:
This is every bit as shocking as "Flat Beat" in the top of your 1999 list. In that case I remember you were nostalgic about parties/clubbing. Are you clubbing again? :happy-partydance: Maybe it's Cyann's favorite? (Whenever Hanna likes a song it becomes better to my ears.)

Anyway, I love to see some electropop in your list. And the album is definitely better than its 2.89 at RYM.
Everyone you meet fights a battle you know nothing about. Be kind. Always.

Nick, if you haven't counted my list yet, use this as final version (if not, it's fine, most of the songs at the top are the same, just shuffled around).

You all convinced me on "Giorgio by Morodor", I had really underestimated that track when it first came out. On the whole, I think 2013 was somewhat weak at the top, but incredibly deep. Tons of great tracks from top to bottom of my top 75. 2012 remains the best year of the young decade though, in my opinion.

1 | Daft Punk | Get Lucky
2 | Huerco S | Prinzif
3 | My Bloody Valentine | wonder 2
4 | Deafheaven | Dream House
5 | Charli XCX | SuperLove
6 | Floating Points | Wires
7 | Arctic Monkeys | R U Mine?
8 | Disclosure ft. AlunaGeorge | White Noise
9 | TV On the Radio | Mercy
10 | Thundercat | Oh Sheit It's X
11 | Grumbling Fur | The Ballad of Roy Batty
12 | Sophie | Bipp
13 | Holden | The Caterpillar's Intervention
14 | Deafheaven | Vertigo
15 | Daft Punk | Giorgio by Morodor
16 | Primal Scream | 2013
17 | Dean Blunt | Papi
18 | Julia Holter | Maxim's II
19 | Mikal Cronin | Weight
20 | Nils Frahm | Says
21 | These New Puritans | Fragment Two
22 | Jon Hopkins | Open Eye Signal
23 | James Blake | Retrograde
24 | John Grant | Pale Green Ghosts
25 | Annie | Invisible
26 | Yo La Tengo | Ohm
27 | Steve Mason | Seen It All Before
28 | Mikal Cronin | Shout It Out
29 | Rustie | Slasherr
30 | Burial | Come Down to Us
31 | Sky Ferreira | You're Not the One

No song list; sorry, no time

1 . Stromae | Racine Carrée
:scared-eek:
This is every bit as shocking as "Flat Beat" in the top of your 1999 list. In that case I remember you were nostalgic about parties/clubbing. Are you clubbing again? :happy-partydance: Maybe it's Cyann's favorite? (Whenever Hanna likes a song it becomes better to my ears.)

Anyway, I love to see some electropop in your list. And the album is definitely better than its 2.89 at RYM.
It is not so shocking. Stromae is much more than an electro pop musician, he's one of the greatest songwriters of the last years. You don't realize it but the lyrics are excellent, and underneath the electro surface there are a lot of influences. Brel of course, in "Formidable", African and Carribean music (there is even an song dedicated to Cesaria Evora). I like him because he's a brilliant songwriter using the instruments of today.

You all convinced me on "Giorgio by Morodor", I had really underestimated that track when it first came out. On the whole, I think 2013 was somewhat weak at the top, but incredibly deep. Tons of great tracks from top to bottom of my top 75. 2012 remains the best year of the young decade though, in my opinion.
Consider this list counted!
