Johannes Ullmaier (Testcard):

Wenn ich ehrlich bin, gibt es für mich zur Zeit keine "Musik zur Zeit". Auf einer "geschichtsphilosophisch sinnvollen" 2010er-Top-Ten-Liste müßten deshalb wohl lauter Sachen stehen, die ich nicht kenne, weil ich entweder nicht die Kapazitäten habe, sie zu entdecken, oder weil es sie nicht gibt. Von den Sachen, die ich - zufällig - im Laufe des Jahres 2010 (wieder)entdeckt habe, kann ich folgendes nennen:

- Iannis Xennakis: Persepolis (in neuem Mix des Originalwerks, gute Ergänzung zur Edition in der Philips Silber-Serie; die beigegebenen Remixe, wie zu erwarten, leider überflüssig)
- Eddie Henderson: Realization u. Inside Out (m. Maupin u. Hancock)
- Billy Harper: Capra Black
- Kluster: 1969-1972
- Diagram Brothers: We are all Animals (Single, vor allem der Song: There is no Shower)
- MCH Band: Gorleben
- Irene Schweizer: Early Tapes (fmp)
- Felix Kubin: Videos (DVD)
- Olivier Messiaen: Das Orgelwerk, Gesamtausgabe (Almut Rößler), Schwann Studio

Olaf Karnik:

Gonjasufi – A Sufi And A Killer (Warp)
New Psych-Blues-Pop wie aus tausend Library-, Khmer Pop-, Indian Soundtrack-, Rare Disco- oder Iranian Garage-Compilations zusammen gesamplet.

Sun City Girls – Funeral Mariachi (Abduction)
Weitestgehend Morriconesque – persönliche Lieblingsplatte des Jahres.

Shackleton – Fabric 55 (Fabric)
Nenn’ es Dub Not Dub oder New Weird Dance – seltsamer, gewagter, außerordentlicher war elektronische Tanzmusik nie (inkl. „Man On A String Pt. 1 & 2“).

Umberto – Prophecy Of The Black Widow (Not Not Fun)
Die amerikanische Kopie von Goblin bügelt nicht nur deren kompositorische Schwächen aus, sondern lässt die Vorbilder auch soundästhetisch hinter sich.

Demdike Stare – Forest Of Evil (Modern Love)
Kann es dysfunktionalen Techno geben, der anhand musikalischer Signature Sounds einen Horrorfilm erzählt?

Mike Patton – Mondo Cane (Ipecac)
Irgendjemand muss ja noch was Gutes an Italien finden, hier: Canzone di Mina, Luigi Tenco, Nico Fidenco…

V.A. – Something Is Wrong. Vintage Recordings From East Africa (Honest Jons)
Stellvertretend für 1001 ambitionierte Compilations, auf denen sich kein Proto-Dancehall aus dem Kenia und Uganda der 30er bis 50er Jahre findet.

Omar Souleyman – Jazeera Nights (Sublime Frequencies)
Pump up your neighbour’s Islamophobie mit… was? Das sollen Hochzeitslieder sein?

Moritz von Oswald Trio – Live In New York (Honest Jons)
Der Versuch, Miles Davis ca. „Agharta“ & „Dark Magus“ zu techno-experimentalisieren, ist zugegebenermaßen ganz schön prätentiös, klingt aber gut…

Monopoly Child Star Searchers – Bamboo For Two (Olde English Spelling Bee)
Noch ein neues Genre: Hypnagogic Kraut-Exotica.

Dieter Dre (Basspräsidium):
topten der meist aufgelegten trinklieder in der session 2010

carl gross - wenn der himmel so blau wär wie wir
die kölsche mösche - 200 takte 1 bier
die vier botze - der schönste platz
fritz weber - kölsch kölsch kölsch
hans lötzsch - bierkastenmarsch
hans uwe schneider - gluck gluck gluck
heinz roland - trink trink brüderchen
kurt adolph thelen - wollt ihr was zum trinken
ludwig sebus - und dann gehen wir in die kellerbar
willy millowitsch - ich halt mich an der theke fest
