It’s time for the new Top Tracks of the month edition. My November was musically very rich: I saw Fatima Yamaha’s live act, Marvin & Guy, Damian Lazarus, DJ Tennis, Mano Le Tough and some non techno gigs such as Fuel Fandango which completely blew my mind. Some very important things happened in the underground electronic music world this November, such as: the release of Recondite’s fabulous Essential Mix, the release of Levon Vincent’s 2 track EP named “NS-15”, all the fuss about Fabric which is finally to reopen in January 2017, the Resident Advisor Poll voting for the best DJs and the best live acts of 2016 – which resulted with Dixon remaining on the throne the fourth year in a row, Jackmaster who played 146 gigs in 2016 taking the second place and Tale Of Us taking the third place as they did in 2015. As expected Adam Beyer that had a really productive 2016 managed to get into the top 10, while the only female DJ in the top 10 is deservedly The Black Madonna. Inspired by the current underground electronic music events this month’s Top Tracks edition holds Levon Vincent’s new release on Novel Sound, Recondite’s Essential Mix, Denis Horvat’s new release on AEON, and tracks by Sébastien Léger, Moderat, Pete Oak, Luttrell, Lane 8, Adriatique, HVOB, Lehar and more. The last track is the RA Poll winner’s edit of the track called “Collection” by Barnt – who I’ll get to hear today at Maceo Plex’s Mosaic party.
