Dokk's Top 100 Tunes of 2012 by iTunes Playcount

I enjoyed doing this last year, so here it is again. 


"212" rocked my world, clearly, and Ghostigital released 'Division of Culture & Tourism' which got a lot of play with me...



...but other top discoveries of the year were definitely Absofacto, Grimes and Miike Snow. 


what's up with this video though..?

...not a video at all, but I love this track


Honorable mentions also go to Moon King, Cloud Nothings, Ultraista, and the latest from Dirty Projectors. 






In other news, I was late to the party on King Creosote, The Joy Formidable and Grinderman. Never too late, though...





And also special thanks to Die Antwoord for infecting my mind with "I Fink U Freaky" for months on end. Bastards.



Music I caught up with late in 2012 and will no doubt be hearing a lot in 2013, I recommended Pilotpriest's "Original Motion Picture Soundtrack," and Dan Deacon's "America," both of which are tremendous. 



I have no idea how 'Baggy Trousers' made it into the top 100... None at all...

A new Fall album due any time soon...

reset for 2013
