Il meglio del 2016 secondo Luca Vitali

Un 2016 iniziato sotto la stella nera di Bowie e la sua dipartita inimmaginabile e, verrebbe da dire, teatrale... come sempre. Blackstar per mille ragioni è il mio disco dell'anno, ma l'uomo che cadde sulla Terra è tornato su Marte e ci guarda da una diversa prospettiva...

Quaggiù, è stata un'annata niente male che ci ha regalato produzioni europee, ma non solo, di qualità. Tra di esse il meglio è arrivato da scelte di campo decise, soprattutto quando all'insegna di sconfinamenti e interferenze di genere.
