Much in the spirit of the season, when we asked our writers to give us their top ten tracks of the year last week, we got a hefty haul of lists. If there’s one thing that characterises this chart of single tracks, it’s its lack of singularity. No one choice had more than five votes, and while a clutch of artists and bands got nods for multiple tracks, similarly to our half year rundown, the rest of the picks were dispersed over a vast amount of territory, with the familiar big-hitters nestling alongside pieces from free-jazz groups and two-minute noise-punk cuts, not infrequently in the same list.
The two most voted-for artists were East India Youth and Kanye West, perhaps one of the few points of comparison between them (although, at time of publishing, we were still looking into reports that William Doyle has also taken to declaring, "I am Henry Ford, and I am Howard Hughes, and I am Michelangelo!" in interviews). And while we’d like to state that we weren’t beating down our scribes’ doors to get them to vote for the first artist released on the Quietus Phonographic Corporation, it’s also been hugely gratifying to find that our massive excitement when we first head ‘Heaven, How Long’ and ‘Dripping Down’ last year has been enthusiastically shared by our contributors.
After that, the acts getting the most nods were Daft Punk, Jon Hopkins, Grumbling Fur (who produced our album of the year, Glynnaestra), These New Puritans, David Bowie, The Knife, Hey Colossus, Girl Band (for their monstrous Blawan cover), Pusha T, John Grant and Daniel Avery, the latter in collaboration with Perc, for the banger par excellence remix of ‘Reception’, making for a mighty fine baker’s dozen of Quietus favourite tracks of 2013 (in alphabetical order):
Daniel Avery – ‘Reception’ (Perc Remix)
David Bowie – ‘Where Are We Now?’
Daft Punk feat. Pharrell Williams – ‘Get Lucky’
East India Youth – ‘Heaven, How Long’
Girl Band – ‘Why They Hide Their Bodies Under My Garage’
John Grant – ‘Pale Green Ghosts’
Grumbling Fur – ‘The Ballad Of Roy Batty’
Hey Colossus – ‘Hot Grave’
Jon Hopkins – ‘Open Eye Signal’
The Knife – ‘Full Of Fire’
Pusha T – ‘Numbers On The Boards’
These New Puritans – ‘Organ Eternal’
Kanye West – ‘Bound 2’/’I Am A God’
We’d like to thank our writers for providing such varied lists, what amounts to a very fine index of music in 2013 and hopefully a mixture of the familiar and the as-yet-unknown for holiday listening. Undoubtedly, as with all of our end of year charts, there will be things that we’ve missed, so let us know your choices in the comments below.
