Sorta satisfied with the top 10, I like all the songs here! But Quadron and Rhye both have the wrong songs in, The Fall and LFT >. Kimbra should have at least 1/3 of the top 10. Retrograde is the best song ever, so it should win obvi. Wouldn't mind Babylon winning either.
"Hey Love" is produced by British producer Fraser T Smith, so the Adele and Florence sound isn't just a coincidence. It’s actually one of their more modern sounding songs and most radio friendly but there’s still that old school flair there.
The build-up on "Waiting Game" is beautiful and haunting. It starts of weary with a piano chord, some echoes, some hums, Banks' sultry vocals and falsetto and then once the thudding bass line kicks in produced by Sohn - We’ve been waiting for more female singers to embrace the darker R&B vibes, and we finally got it.

A little back story: The name ‘Quadron’ originates from the word ‘quadroon’ which means quarter Black (the duo are both a quarter black) and 60/70’s R&B being fused with electronic production is the sound these two bring to the table. Although Quadron has been around since 2009, the duo had one of the best R&B albums of 2013, "Avalanche", and critics couldn't stop praising it. Proving that international acts are performing traditional R&B music better than some that are stateside.
Other popular tracks:
"It's Gonna Get You", "Neverland", "Average Fruit", "Jeans"
I think it's now the perfect time to cut this set short because the way #8-#6 is setup.... I want to see the fumes live in effect.. Be here tomorrow, 4 PM EST.
