Among all of them, two were particularly unexpected, Burial’s new three-track EP ‘Rival Dealer’, whose standout moment ‘Come Down To Us’ is the first number one in our favourite tracks chart this year and Beyoncé who also shocked the whole industry releasing by surprise an eponymous new album, which turned out to be her most solid effort to date.
