One moment while we pull together the music from this year.
Retroverse Year
2013
The numbers tilt — streaming revenue begins its climb while album sales keep sliding, and artists start thinking in terms of playlists instead of gatefolds. Daft Punk's 'Get Lucky' and Lorde's 'Royals' prove that retro gloss and teenage truth can both own the summer. Miley Cyrus and Robin Thicke ignite a culture-war conversation about what pop is allowed to show.
