2013 Recap: Songs (#25-1)

Head here for #50-26…

The following 25 songs are a combination of the most played songs in our iTunes and the songs we most like to play out in the club (ok, living room). It’s also an attempt to condense the dozens of wildly variegated styles we covered this year into something resembling cohesion. Shlohmo & Jeremih come in at number one, but that slot could have easily gone to any other song that precedes it. That being said, there wasn’t a song that we listened to, chanted along with and occasionally cried to more than the inimitable “Bo Peep (Do U Right)”. Without further ado, 25 songs that a few people really enjoyed…

25.) Hysterics – Code Switch (Club Mix) [Night Slugs]

24.) Thundercat – Heartbreaks + Setbacks [Brainfeeder]

23.) Kevin Gates – 4:30 AM [Mixtape]
