Tim’s Essential Tracks of 2013

So that was 2013 huh? Pretty solid year. I’ve been working on this list all year. Full disclosure, if you’re looking for the obvious “Best of 2013″ list, this is not for you. This is more about the tracks that might have slipped through the cracks, the tracks that never quite got the attention they deserved. Some of them are more obvious than others (read: Daft Punk). While others, need to be heard (read: Streets of Laredo).

How do you boil down a year to 15 songs? In my case, you don’t. You make a soundcloud best of and a Spotify Best of list. We had a banner year personally, professionally and musically. A lot of firsts that I am extremely thankful for. Rather than sit here and wax poetic on what was definitely the best year of my life, why don’t you just sit back and listen to these tunes that helped make 2013 so special?

And then I made a totally different Spotify playlist so you got hours of music to listen to.

I’m totally zoned in right now. I know absolutely nothing about Jaymes Young. But here’s what I’ll say: if Michael Buble and The Weeknd spent a crazy weekend in South Beach and things got out of hand the product would be Jaymes Young. It’s a mind meltingly delicious blend of R&B, electro and dubstep. I cannot really even place it yet. But I cannot get enough of it right now.

What’s even more impressive is his cover of Haddaway’s ‘What Is Love’, which you may remember from A Night At The Roxbury. Who knew Haddaway had such emotional lyrics?? It’s dark, but it’s just too good. You’ve gotta check this out.
