Hitzone - Best Of 2020 is a double CD with only the greatest hits of the past year. 2020 was a good year not only for fans of the popular hits. There was also a lot to enjoy for the true music lover. In addition to hits from The Weeknd, Dua Lipa and Benee, 2020 is also the year of home-grown music with hits from Snelle, Suzan & Freek, Davina Michelle, Racoon and Kris Kross Amsterdam. In addition to a lot of new artists, we also saw many familiar names in the charts, such as Tiësto, Lady Gaga and Sam Smith.

Having spent the last decade together releasing chart-topping music, debuting stunningly original music videos and touring in sold-out venues across the globe, THE PIANO GUYS will celebrate their tenth anniversary as a group with the release of their tenth new album 10, out November 20 from Sony Music Masterworks. The 2-disc album reflects on The Piano Guys' greatest career moments thus far with 15 newly-remastered fan favorite tracks from the past decade as well as introduces their next chapter with 12 recent tracks never-before-released on CD. Over the course of the past decade, The Piano Guys have reached a series of unprecedented milestones on an unbelievable journey around the globe.

sophomore record ‘All Or Nothing’ saw the band team up with the legendary Butch Vig to record in Los Angeles. It achieved Top 20 in both the UK and Germany. In March 2020, The Subways will hit the road with a run of headline dates. Frontman Billy Lunn explains further: “Nearly fifteen years ago, when Young for Eternity was released, Josh and Charlotte were 18 and 19 years old, and I was 20. Touring our debut album was for us an adventurous explosion of excitement, just as every tour since then has been. In 2020, we get to relive that initial excitement when we embark on the Young for Eternity tour to play the album in full. None of us can truly express just how thrilled we are that we get the chance to do this.”

As remasters go, this is just such an audible splendor that no fan should be without. Gone is the muddy 80's mastering with muffled sound and dulled drums. These two disks (especially with headphones) are a treat to to the senses.

Kraftwerk's Wolfgang Flur in collaboration with U96. There are few genres in which German artists play such a central pioneering role as they do in electronic music, be it techno, electropop, trance or rave. At the frontline for many years were Kraftwerk and U96, two absolute trailblazers of this musical direction. While Kraftwerk wrote international music history mainly in the 1970s with cult albums such as Autobahn (1974), Radio-Aktivit?t (1975), Trans Europa Express (1977) and Die Mensch-Maschine (1978), U96 had a profound influence on the global pop music, rave and techno scene of the 1990s with hits such as 'Das Boot', 'Love Sees No Colour', 'Night In Motion' and 'Heaven'./quote]

On American Head, the Flaming Lips use their storytelling skills to their fullest, combining some of their purest moods and most beautiful melodies with some of their most overtly autobiographical songwriting. Drawn from Wayne Coyne's memories of growing up in early '70s Oklahoma with his freewheeling brothers and their biker friends – as well as his imagined version of Mudcrutch, the precursor to Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers that honed their chops in Tulsa around that time – the album's concept is one of the band's richest in some time. At the time of American Head's release, the band compared it to Yoshimi Battles the Pink Robots and The Soft Bulletin, and it's true that the album's scope and depth of feeling put it on that level.

GoGo Penguin the instrumental trio from Manchester, England consisting of Chris Illingworth (piano), Rob Turner (drums) and Nick Blacka (bass) have fielded plaudits and rave reviews for inspiration and originality at every turn since 2013. Now back with their self-titled album out on June 5th, which signifies their conviction that they’ve struck upon the motherlode, hit the jackpot, stepped up and generally arrived at a point they’ve always striven for but never quite attained before.
