Music: Best of 2006

This year the "Best of" comes a bit late... yet it's never too late is it? 2006 was the year of confirmation of norwegian musician Lindstrøm and of danish Trentemøller, as well as the group The Rapture from New York, with a great second album (and a fresh live act). The year of the rediscovery and confirmation of Fujiya & Miyagi, Post Industrial Boys (from Georgia), Cat Power, Fuckpony, Nouvelle Vague, Scissor Sisters (well partly), Tiga and many others. For me it was the year of the discovery of many rising promises like Michoacan (mexican musician from US), Loco Dice (from Hamburg), MSTRKRFT (from Canada), Tekel (from France), CSS (Cansei de ser sexy) (from Brazil), Minilogue (from Sweden), Lily Allen, Delorean (from Spain), Pinkboy (from Portugal) and many others. 2006 was the year of minimal electro-house or minimal techno-house, whatever you want to call it, with flagships like Marc Romboy , Stephan Bodzin (from Systematic in Germany), Martin Buttrich, Nick Chacona, Loco Dice and Digitalism, Sasse, etc...

So here's the list and have fun looking up for it. The January-February 2007 playlist will soon be out...
