SHREM'S 2011 COUNTDOWN OF CHOONS - 30-21

30 "Boadicea" - Mason feat. Róisín Murphy - while waiting (very) patiently for some more solo material, my number one muse Miss Róisín Murphy treated us to some delicious collaborations this year and apparently there's more to come in 2012, I was humming this one away for months!


29 "Call Your Girlfriend" - Robyn - as much as I worshipped Robyn's "Body Talk" last year this was never my favourite track on her spectacular triptych in 2010... It wasn't until this video... Eternally in love with this pure pop perfection of a gem now!


28 "My Friends Will Always Say..." - FaltyDL - UK Garage made in US with a haunting vocal sample which sounds like taken from some lost Lauryn Hill song... The year 2011 the year when I re-fell in love with 2-step...


27 "Cherry Picking" - Toddla T feat. Róisín Murphy - La Murphy goes all rough urban & dirty for Mr T's album - effortlessly the best song of the whole set!


26 "Abracadabra" - Brown Eyed Girls - there's no year without at least one cheesy K-POP anthem ha? Still one of the most viewed videos on my blog one of the catchiest choruses I heard all year!


25 "Calling Out" - Midnight Magic - I can't praise Midnight Magic enough! Their very special take on disco is so fresh and funky, every single track they released this year was excellent plus Tiffany Roth was my number 1 female vocalist of the year by a long mile!


24 "Deep Inside" - Gus Gus - and the Icelandic saga continues...


23 "In The Heat" - Jessica 6 - I'd absolutely love if Nomi Ruiz & co decided to release this as their next single, such a groovy tune
IN THE HEAT by Peacefrog Records

22 "212" - Azealia Banks feat. Lazy J - so new and already timeless! I have welcome the 2012 dancing my socks off to it at midnight yesterday!


21 "Lola (Ging Danga)" - Maluca + The Partysquad - Dominican answer to M.I.A. scored a top 50 track on my end of the year ranking second year running, modern rave anthem latino style!

Crème de la crème: MARCH 2011

20 (N) - "Horrors of Love" - Ryskee feat. Jenny Wilson - this month's number one leftfield treasure, you couldn't expect anything less bizarre from Miss Jenny Wilson herself though...

19 (N) - "Neli" - Ichisan - sparkling piece of Italo Disco pure joy courtesy of the fabulous "CockTail d'Amore" EP!

b2 Ichisan - Neli snippet by Cocktail d'Amore

18 (N) - "Birthday (Llorca Remix)" - Nuno Dos Santos & TJ Kong feat. Nicolette - no other track in Nicolette's vast list of collaborations ever sounded so housey... Groove is in their hearts this month!

17 (N) - "Tailor-made" - Daedelus - One of those unclassifiable singles out there, it stole my heart (and my ears!) instantly + Floating Points remix is epic too!

Tailor-Made (featuring Milosh) by Daedelus

16 (4) - "White Horse" - Jessica 6 - watch the ultra-sexy Nomi Ruiz in this glossy video HERE!

15 (N) - "Don't Waste Your Light On Me" - Nottee - low key release in bouncy rhythm by Sweden's well kept secret

14 (N) - "Que veux-tu" - Yelle - delighted Yelle's releasing this as their new single as the previous one "Safari Disco Club" didn't score many points in my books...

Que veux-tu by YELLE

13 (3) - "Saké" - Jupiter - out of top 10 this month but the juicy bunch of fresh remixes by Anoraak, Para One & Tacteel & Hannulelauri among others is truly appetising! Have some
酒 !

12 (N) - "Sin Oficio" - Systema Solar - Colombian bomb of positive energy and irresistible beats that rocked the dancefloor at our b*day partee courtesy of my dear friend Alva - gracias!

05 Sin oficio by systemasolar

11 (8) - "Do You Need Someone" - Beth Ditto

10 (N) - "Still Sound" - Toro y Moi - as tasty as the review written by my music guru Piotrek - NoSnobsAllowed - Czarnecki

09 (N) - "Crazy For You" - Designer Drugs feat. Annie - while anticipating some fresh material from my favourite Norwegian, here's a brand new collaboration with the enigmatic French act Designer Drugs...

08 (7) - "More Than Seven" - FCL


07 (N) - "Painted Eyes" - Hercules & Love Affair - this will be the next single taken off their 2nd outing "Blue Songs"... And it quite possibly is the strongest song on the entire LP. The production is so sleek!

06 (RE) - "Closer" - Kylie Minogue - loved the show and re-fell in love with this gem of a pop song from "Aphrodite". Like the idea of the fan-made artwork as it most possibly will never be released as a single.

05 (RE) - "Boadicea" - Mason Feat. Róisín Murphy - this enchanting piece of synth pop reminds of La Murphy's "Pandora" produced by Richard X a little bit, which is totally a good thing. Oh how I adore this woman!!!

04 (N) - "Do You Believe? (James Curd Vocal Mix) - Poolside - when remix is hotter than the original, on the loop on my i-Tunes - see for yourself...

03 (1) - "I Wrote The Book" - Beth Ditto - 3 months in a row in top 3 YEAH!
02 (N) - "Abracadabra" - Brown Eyed Girl - the catchiest K-Pop song in months! This makes me wanna dance every single time!
01 (N) - "Chocolate Black Leather" - Ajello feat. Hard Ton - Grazie di cuore Fabrizio Tavernelli & Luca Roccatagliati aka Ajello with the exquisite guest appearance by the one and only Hard Ton for coming up with this mighty dancefloor anthem - one of this year's hottest singles by far!!!

SHREM'S WORLDLY DELIGHTS: "ABRACADABRA" - Brown Eyed Girls



I'm getting seriously addicted to the Korean girl bands... I can't help myself, South Korea releases the catchiest pop singles of the past year or so... First Girl's Generation, then 2NE1 and now Brown Eyed Girls - über-catchy!
