2018 Artists Picks – Moist
Best of 2018 by Moist (David Elfström Lilja)
2018. I have as always listened to a lot of Icelandic music ’cause the electronic (and music) scene in Reykjavik blows me away so at the top is a band that not many have heard about. Otherwise, my top 10 is very electronic, cause I love electronic music. I’ve spent a lot of time in the studio listening to my own stuff and finally released my second album “Lavine” after years of chaos and tears. But I had time to enjoy more stuff. These are the albums I will take with me into 2019 and enjoy for a long time.
aYia – aYia
I saw aYia at Iceland Airways two years ago and was blown away. Had to wait two years for the album. Love it!
Marie Davidson – Working Class Woman
This French-Canadian musician from Montreal make just pure electronic perfection.
Sister Electra – Beautiful Music For A Sad World
Swedish Sister Electra is one of my favourite Swedish artists at the moment. Crazy talented (also check out his Brotherhood goth project).
Black Moth Super Rainbow – Panic Blooms
This can never go wrong. Black Moth Super Rainbow. Amazing stuff.
Sin Fang, Sóley & Örvar Smárason – Team Dreams
Sin Fang is one of my favorite artists from Iceland, here he teamed up with Sóley & Örvar and release on track a month and collected them into one album.
Chvrches – Love Is Dead
This Scottish band doesn’t need any introduction. Lauren, Iain and Martin has made awesome synthpop since 2011 and still going strong!
The Orb – No Sounds Are Out Of Bounds
Who doesn’t remember “Little Fluffy Clouds” from 1990? I was a bit skeptical to listen to the new The Orb album but it is The Orb at the top.
ionnalee – Everyone Afraid to Be Forgotten
Jonna from iamamiwhoami under another alias but with the same sound and awesome songs.
Objekt – Cocoon Crush
Berlin-based producer Timothy Hertz makes amazing intensive electronic music under the alias Objekt. A must-have! Cocoon Crush…
Tracey Thorn – Record
Tracey from Everything But The Girl is back with another solo album and a very electronic one. Awesome!
