TOP PROGRAMMERS: TOP 3 ALBUMS 2023 – Mathieu Constance, Igloofest, Piknic Electronik, Multicolore, Courage

· by Rédaction PAN M 360

PAN M 360 asked its partners to provide a list of the top 3 albums of 2023. Several artistic directors graciously agreed!

Mathieu Constance is director of programming for Multicolore, the company behind Montreal festivals Piknic Electronik and Igloofest; and programmer and artist manager at Courage.

Overmono / Good Lies / XL Recordings (electronic, breakbeat)

“My album of the year. Those who have been following the Russell brothers for some time know that it was only a matter of time before they exploded onto the international scene, something they have definitely accomplished with this gem. To be listened to again and again.

Kaytraminé / Kaytraminé/ CLBN, Kaytranada, Venice Music (instumental hip-hop, soul/R&B)

“The perfect album for the summer of 2023 and a new project signed by the biggest Montreal artist of our time, Kaytranada. We were lucky enough to experience it live for their only performance in town at a memorable OfF Piknic in September.”

TDJ / SPF INFINI 3 / Collection Disques Durs (trance, eurodance)

“In 2023, the trance and eurodance revival has shown it’s here to stay. One of its flagship artists, TDJ, signs an exclusive compilation and mix with its key players accompanied by an iconic film.”
