Hi, I’m Josh and I worked at Pure Pop long, long ago. This has been an exceptionally great year for electronic music, which made it darn near impossible for me to choose only five albums. So, with Tanner’s kind permission, I’ve chosen to be completely gratuitous and submit two lists to account for my 10 favorite releases of 2013. This first list serves as my 10-6 picks, and the second list will have my top five. I should note that I decided to not include label compilations, but if I had, Samurai/Horo’s “Scope,” Token’s “Introspective,” and Livity Sound’s “Livity Sound” would’ve definitely been in there, as they gather the most cutting edge, forward-thinking sounds going on in drum ‘n bass, techno, and UK dubstep respectively.
