Top 37 Chart 21-10-2013

More and more amazingly cool tunes have been thrown on my desk last week and it feels that we are back on track, so here's a new chart for free! Reflektor is one of the best tracks I have heard this year and what about that Bruce Springsteen cover of "Drive All Night" by Glen Hansard and Eddie Vedder? More new stuff by Robbie Williams, Hellogoodbye, Rae & Christian (check out their album Mercury Rising, strong!) and Kraak & Smaak (new album Chrome Waves will be released next week!)
2013 is far from over and it will be quite tough to make a Top 177 of this year. I made need some help from you folks, so drop me a mail.

Autumn Series Part 5 and 6

Autumn Series Part 5 and 6Autumn has always been special to me. The days of hot summer days are over so I can finally wear some decent clothes. Most of all, Mother Nature brings us the most powerful colours of the year. That is one of the reasons I have learned to ignore all the complaining folks around me who tend to drown themselves in a puddle of self-pity because of lower temperatures, a little bit of rain and wind and longer nights. Big deal. Truth is, that the best music is usually written during and about those wet and darker autumn days. It gives me a big pleasure to bring to your attention my 2 new Autumn Collection Part 5 and 6. Keep smiling, Xmas is just around the corner.

Top 37 Chart 21-10-2013I truly enjoyed making last weeks chart, so why not continue this week? Again, I was pleasantly surprised with fresh Kraak & Smaak, Roisin Murphy and Jamie Lidell singles and new albums of bands like Electric Six (Mustang) and The Fratellis (We Need Medicine). The latter was almost unanimously buried by the critics, but f*ck 'm, we love it. This past weekend I went raving at a party at the Amsterdam Dance Event, hence the entry of Josh Wink - Balls. You gotta love some old skool techno-acid-rave loop-di-loops. Or maybe not. Whatever you do, don't forget to check in at Raar Fm, the only place where you will here all these carefully selected tunes.

Top 37 Chart 14-10-2013During this past weekend the weather was so bad, I was forced to listen to a huge pile of new music. The horror :)
I was pleasantly surprised to hear so many great new tunes, that it was impossible not to make a new Top 37 Chart and share my love with you.
Check all 37 songs on Youtube, or even better, tune in to Raar FM. Those guys are playing all these hits (and lots more) 24/7. Hope you dig them brand new hitzzz and don't forget to send me your tips.

Free Kittin!

I can't help it, but I have a soft spot for this wild woman.
We had to wait several years, but she will be back with a new album "Calling From The Stars" very soon. A teaser in the form of a brand new free mp3 is now available.

Happy Twenty13
