Paris DJs: Paris DJs presents The 50 Best Albums of 2013 @ Musique Non Stop |
Posted: 04 Jan 2014 07:28 AM PST
This year's best albums selection was the hardest one to make since we started being active on the musical web in 1996. There's a simple reason for that: we had never been that prolific as a label before. With 52 releases on Paris DJs (singles, albums, compilations or mixes) during the 52 weeks of 2013, most of our time has been spent cooking our own stuff rather than listening to the amazing amount of music produced by other artists & labels. Nevertheless, we still managed to listen to a damn lot of new music, and instead of picking the 10 best albums, we've opted for an easy solution: a 50 best albums selection, just like every music magazine does. This top 50 has been carefuly prepared by our reviewers team Djouls and Nicolas Ragonneau, with an additional small input by the not-that-regular collaborator Mr Moo. If your 2013 release is not in this list, it's either that it's not so good as compared to others, or that we didn't manage to hear it…. Paris DJs presents The 50 Best Albums of 2013 01.
