When I was pulling tracks together for the various parts of my BPK retrospective, I realised that a lot of the artists featuring had an equally pop-happy side that prompted attention…as well as there just being tons of tracks not as suited to that show which I really wanted to give a nod to.  So I signed up to do another POTP, this one focusing purely on my favourite pop tunes from the last 10 years.  Makes sense, eh?

Really enjoyed pulling this together and hosting the show, and while some of the songs (Lost Prophets, or The Knife) might not seem the most obvious of choices, they’re pretty symbolic (for me personally) of certain moments in time over the decade…so they get an honourable mention!

So here we are – the final installment in the BPK glance back over the (slightly more) underground tracks of the last decade. This week I focus completely on the last year or so, which inevitably means a slapdash concoction of disco edits, a slight dabble in some house, plenty of wonky electronica and some sublime downtempo, slightly more leftfield stuff which has really been pressing the buttons this year.

All of the artists in this list are worthy of your support and adoration, so if you like what you hear be sure you go and buy some of their material and ensure plenty more great music keeps getting released over the next decade.

Finally – massive thanks to everyone who has support the Badly Packed Kebab over the last few months, and the Purple Radio efforts in general over the last year.  It’s been another great year and it’s always a pleasure to stay up late drinking ropey ales and playing daft music at you.

Have a splendid Christmas and a wonderful New Year! Here’s to plenty more in 2010!
