Here we go again with the beat - come enjoy the tunes that made our year
As a bunch of hip young twenty somethings (hahahahahaha, we’re not, we hardly ever go out) it should come as no surprise that we’re constantly listening to the most cutting-edge tunes (more irony) as we go about our daily business. Fights over the music we play in the studio are many and varied, with some fervently believing they have the best taste in town while others quietly and democratically play songs that everyone wants to hear (thanks James Brown).
In spite of this longstanding musical war, we’ve decided to come together in the spirit of Christmas to bring you a list of tracks that have defined our year. Some you’ll love, some you’ll hate, and Carly Rae Jepsen you’ll love and hate at the same time, but all of these songs have kept us going in 2012; from our bright-eyed start on Monday morning, to the moment we hit the pub on a Friday. So, put your differences aside, turn the volume up to nine (we’re not animals) and dance for me!
