2014qt.

Hey y'all it's ya girl treeqt. back for your annual edition of peep my year fam. Let me first hit you with a couple statistics to put the following set of enumerated items into proper perspective: 564 ratings, 195 of them 3 or higher and thus eligible for inclusion on this list. Although they rank in my top 100 (and some of them highly) I did not include any Fabric(live), RA and FACT (1 exception) mixes in this list because everyone with an interest in dance music should always listen to all their releases regardless (or consider to do so at least). Also because I needed more space. Fabric 75 & 76 as well as Fabriclive 73(!) & 76 are 3.5s and highly recommended. All items 3.0 until otherwise noted. Enjoy.

24John Butt
Requiem (Mozart)


classical . unconventional version of mozart's requiem, primarily changed in the choir
composition to replicate what's presumed to be the first performance of this. butt (xD) talks
about this here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YTid-YZSB0k. this is definitely not the best
version of the requiem (sir colin davis/bbc SO imo) but very interesting and a must listen
nonetheless.

3Girls Generation
The Best


pop . essentially the last soshi album. the only thing keeping this from being an absolute 5 is
the fact that it's japanese and not korean and the thus slightly limited track selection.
