The 2015 JoshMo songs of the year

The wait is over! I am here to announce the 2015 song of the year. While I don't have fancy golden members to award, its well known that a JoshMo seal of approval will do wonders for musicians in the industry. Personal favorites are all that matters here.

I encourage other members to post their top songs lists so we can all claim that the others are wrong and that personal taste is not subjective.

Without further ado:

10. Christian Scott - Sunrise in Beijing

9. Windhand - Crypt Key

8. Sufjan Stevens - Should Have Known Better

7. Kylesa - Lost and Confused

6. Ratatat - Cream on Chrome

5. Jamie XX - Loud Places

4. Grimes - Kill V. Maim

3. Kamasi Washington - Change of Guard

2. Tame Impala - Let it Happen

1. Deafheaven - New Bremuda (whole album)

I would like to amend

2. Tame Impala - Let It Happen video to the full length song, and not the shortened official video version

 

I had to ask my kid who most of those artists are. I know four out of ten.

 

Ha, probably a good sign that I am not listening to decent music. Kylesa / Windhand / Deafheaven are all post-metal / sludge bands and if you are not into the genre you would not have any reason to hear of them. So that really only leaves 7 semi normal artists, and also puts you over 50% recognition. If someone posted a classical ro folk list I likely wouldnt recognize much either.

There was a thread outlining the levels of music and the deeper you went the more obscure. I havnt even heard of 75% of the genre's let alone the musicians.
