think I'm gonna try my best and advertise some of my noms here:
Pase Rock - Nights (Shazam Remix)
Another great remix from Shazam (check his remix of Munk's "Down in LA", too). Digi-funk, synth-r'n'b, something along those lines. Basically something a Lex or Tim F would like (I think). Sounds wonderfully melancholic, like a walk through the city center after the rain. Synths go in and go out, letting gusts of fresh air into the mix.

Class Actress - Keep You
I always kinda wanted that The Knife's "Heartbeat" would have a bit better bass in the beginning (which always sounds BIGGER in my head than it really is) and this song kinda caters for my dreams. A really solid electro-pop single with a powerful chorus. Doesn't reach nowhere near the emotional intensity of aforementioned classic, but still makes an entertaining listen.

I don't know how much play this is getting outside of Latin music contexts, but I hope people will check this out if they haven't heard it. Not a great song but the first large-scale mainstream manifestation I know of for tribal guarachero:

I admit it looks more like an ad, which it sort of is for this particular style. I could live with this sound getting a lot more popular.

Intentalo might be in my top five singles of the year.

A lot of these nominations sound like they could have fit into a radio set I would have been listening to in the 80s, and it kind of bugs me, mostly because I heard more than enough (characteristically) 80s music for one lifetime in the 80s.

Given some of my recent personal favorites, it's obviously not as though I have a principled need for the least retro sounding music. There's plenty of not very retro material I don't like.

ayo silvana, thanks for bringing up that prommer and barck record. not only is it completely solid but all of the remixes i've heard from it on spotify completely rule.

I'm liking the Fatima Al Qadiri EP, but wishing she would do something with khaleeji rhythms. (So far I haven't heard anything along those lines from her.) Sorry to be predictable.

sad that "snapped" doesn't seem to be the most popular jhene aiko track, i think it's stunning, like "marvin's room" from a slightly more mature perspective??? someone who is just as wounded but is much better at hiding it? (that's not supposed to be a knock on jojo's, which is my favorite track of the year)

Yall can sing along with this one:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s7kcAaAu4jU
I was captive on a slave boat rowing through the swampthey threw me off into the lake of alligatorseyes were glowing in the dark, and fear was in the airas the beasts were closing in, panic struck my mindswimming through the mud, yes I was swimming through the mudand a thousand flamingos led my way,riding to the feast for I was gonna meet my doom
Tonight a demon came into my head and tried to choke me in my sleepTonight a demon came into my head and tried to choke me in my sleep
There's more lyrics, but get real, you can't sing like Joakim Nilsson!!

TV On The Radio - Nine Types Of Light
I feel that the album wouldn't be so (relatively) underappreciated if more people heard in in the context of the movie.
