#34. Apparat - The Devil’s walk (Mute)

It has been a long time since Sascha Ring’s previous release and I’m not talking about the Dj Kicks, but Walls (2007). Leaving behind the club scene for this album, Apparat emphasizes on producing a record with more elements. From its gloomiest song Goodbye (in collaboration with Anja Plaschg aka Soap&Skin) to its sweetest Sweet Unrest, The Devil’s Walk is an interesting album that if you forget the disturbing song Escape it has all the potential to be in this list.

#67. M83 - Hurry Up, We’re Dreaming (M83 Recording Inc)

When Anthony Gonzales goes pop.

The era of the dark and atmospheric-almost cinematic “Before The Dawn Heels Us” is never coming back after this release. Its a new era for pop, colorful, easy listening hits that could be easily played on “underground” MTV shows for the happy hour lunch break.

Where is the bad thing with that? The album is too long, it could have been higher. 

Highlight of the album: The intro with Zola Jesus.
