Cenk Akyol’s style has always been distinct and his lists picky. Once again he’s told us that he wasn’t able to find 10 or so releases to enjoy completely this year, so his best of lists consists mostly of songs.

Making a best of list has been considerably harder for 2009. Here are our mentions in random order. Fedayi Pacha, Bibio, Wye Oak, Liechtenstein, BLK JKS, Crystal Antlers, Proudpilot, Yagya, The XX, OPN..

I’ve yet to find any defining best of list for the decade. Haven’t looked far and wide yet, but here are some that don’t look so terrible.

I’ve processed some of the best of lists in my bookmarks folder. Here are some of the more interesting and/or diverse ones. I’m trying to wrap up my own list, but damn these lists always give you lots to catch up.

We’ve always been late late in dealing with the passing year; but this time we’re way into the new one.

Promise!
