I’ve been scratching my head while searching for the best albums of 2013 and thinking about what really happened in music this year? Besides Miley Cirus transforming into our favorite junior tramp, Robin Thicke conquering Billboard charts with a song about date rape, and Justin Beiber preparing to launch his new DJ career – what can we really say about 2013? Considering we don’t touch any pop icons on our blog lets move on to the more positive and pure accomplishments of underground electronic, dance, and indie artists who’ve kept it real this year.

Here are 10 great albums released in 2013, it’s a pretty short list as it’s hard to narrow it down to 10 but these seem to stick out. They’re listed in no particular order:
