Rockit Top 100 Italian Songs of 2014

Let's take a look to my little country. Here you find the Top 100 Italian Songs of 2014 according to Rockit (likely the most important Italian-only indierock-friendly music website). It's a one-track-per-artist chart. About six hours of music that mostly focus on the youngest local underground (few old acts from the 90s: Edda, Paolo Benvegnù, Marlene Kuntz, Cristina Donà...) and testify how Spotify has become a major listening channel for Italian indie (88% tracks available on the service).

Enjoy!

Rockit Top 100 Italian Songs of 2013

(Speaking about music) what happened in my country in 2013? Rockit just published in listenable form its chart of the Top 100 Italian songs of the year. Founded in 1997, Rockit is likely the oldest and most important website about Italian indie, underground, hip hop, electronica & alternative rock scene. It means this list is mainly based on songs and artists who did not top the local radio and iTunes pop charts, with few exceptions (I Cani, Baustelle, Massimo Volume, Neffa, Max Gazzè, Gue Pequeno...). Actually I don't think 2013 has been an unforgettable year for Italian music - I just have Baustelle and Massimo Volume's albums in my personal Top20 - but listening to this playlist I'm getting some late pleasant surprises. Maybe it will be the same for you.

Enjoy.
