Top 50 Tracks of 2014

Merry Christmas everybody! Just a few days are left in the 2014 calendar which means that it's time to go through our record collection once again and select our favorites from the past 12 months. 

We are starting today with the list of our Top 50 Tracks of the Year and we'll continue with the albums in the next few days. As usual, the rule for our annual track selection is to include only one song per artist or group and also we tend to favor tracks that were released as singles or EPs over album tracks.
