I don’t know about you, but here at Trommel we had an absolute blast in 2019.
Music’s ability to constantly innovate and surprise is best reflected within it’s underground communities and we certainly saw it in-play across a whole host of genres, scenes, countries, you name it. It’s a stock response to say ‘What a year for music!’ but really, we mean it.
There’s been so many fantastic releases, so much joy and melancholy generated from all corners of our scene. Our writers pulled together their favourite 100 tracks from the past 12 months to present to you as a now Trommel tradition. We hope to either tip you off about a track you may have missed or remind you of just one how good a certain release was.
This is in no way a ranking but a simple appreciation and of course we’ve hyperlinked all the track for your listening pleasure. To every producer and label on this list, as well as all the others that made us dance… thank you!
