Read "Eyal Hareuveni Best of 2013 List" reviewed by Eyal Hareuveni


There were so many great releases in 2013 that inspired me, provoked my conceptions about music and art, disturbed my peace of mind and mainly, enriched my life. This list--presented in no particular order and enhanced with video and Soundcloud clips--represents the tip of my listening iceberg. Kitchen Orchestra with Alexander von ...
