Last year was a banner year in music but 2014, so far, has proven to be up for the challenge of being even better. With albums from heavy hitters like The Black Keys, Beck and St. Vincent already in the books, what more can 2014 do??? Reducing the best songs to a mere (20)14×2 meant eliminating old favorites like Damon Albarn, Sharon Van Etten and Wye Oak, as well as new infatuations like Parquet Courts, Swans and Sylvan Esso, but the results are good. So, after much deliberation and many wonderful hours spent devouring music, below are MY Best Songs of 2014 (so far). Oh, you can watch the video for each track below or simply listen to the whole playlist on Spotify! Enjoy!28 Habib Koite, “L.A.”
