Favourite tracks of 2012

[Freebasser]

The way people listen to music seems to be changing. I don't know about you, but in the last year I've found myself pressing shuffle on my library more than taking in whole albums.

With that in mind, let's have some lists of people's favourite tracks from 2012, and as it's 2012, let's have... 12 each. Yes, that'll work. In no particular order then:

1) Public Enemy - Say It Like It Really Is (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dA3naMgG0IU)

2) The Raveonettes - Night Comes Out (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SUD-9iKX7Nw)

3) Jam Baxter (feat. Ramson Badbonez) - Gourmet Flesh (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=19LMGbTGGgk)

4) Lorn - Mercy (http://www.juno.co.uk/miniflashplayer/SF455499-01-01-01.mp3)

5) Santigold - Disparate Youth (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=abAOvoCRAZA)

6) Tame Impala - Feels Like We Only Go Backwards (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wycjnCCgUes)

7) Holy Other - Tense Past (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=juc4EZpfAX0)

8) HEALTH - Tears (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zEH_LSL4rVw)

9) Daphni - Yes, I Know (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6hFdWGE6RWo)

10) The Brian Jonestown Massacre - Panic In Babylon (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FR3H8TY3iGg)

11) Beach House - The Hours (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oHjxwHwSRN4)

12) The Voodoo Trombone Quartet - Hello! Who Are You? (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Am8yB1r6sM0)

[yeahwho]

Good list, I like the fact anton newcombe of The Brian Jonestown Massacre not only posts his own youtube videos, he also answers questions and adds comments to his post. (y)

I have some tunes that did not make my "TOP 10" but could at anytime invade it.... then once I'm completely off work I'll do a proper "TOP 10" list.

Still love the punk and Fidlar still delivers, with their anti "anti-drug" song West Coast (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ply3CoGZHlM)!

The Evens have a great Gun Control idea, Wanted Criminals
(http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tM82zEsvAfE)

The Tough Shits Hombre De La Cocaina
(http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JNbNdbd3yZk)

I really liked Macklemores Album with Ryan Lewis, here is the full album The Heist
(http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3ei9XhIS2g4), but since I'm in AA, the song that hit me the most was "Starting Over (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zXwO7PwuPIY)"... Plus he's a local boy who's been banging around Seattle for years now making $$$! (y)

That's just a few out of several dozen great relelases in 2012, I'm working until Thursday so I'll put up the more then.

its a sad fact that i just cant pick that many, am afraid a lot of music passed me by this year, as my kids get older i spend more time having to listen to theirs more!

So only four from me and one of them was on an album from 2011 but it was a single in 2012:

Theme From Velodrome - Chemical Brothers (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OpyqgJHSEW0)

The Baddest Man Alive - RZA & BLack Keys (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OJ8Gtx45Fmc)

No Church In The Wild - Kanye West and Jay Z (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FJt7gNi3Nr4)

Where Is It Going? - Orbital (https://www.youtube.com/watch?annotation_id=annotation_641832&feature=iv&src_vid=KfmpxaLl6c4&v=Z8QcwjdrTM8)

The Baddest Man Alive - RZA & BLack Keys (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OJ8Gtx45Fmc)


How the F did I miss this? I never go more than about 2 months without checking to see if there's any further word on another Blakroc effort :/

I first heard it when CYP dropped it in the new hip hop thread a while back. the whole soundtrack looks good and wouldnt mind giving the film a whirl. also, the baddest man alive was probably best video of 2012.
