SoundCloud has delivered its 2020 Playback list, a comprehensive throwback to the top-played artists, songs, and, of course, DJ mixes from the late year. It comes as no surprise that RL Grime‘s latest Halloween mix installment, “Halloween IX,” reigns as the most-streamed mix of the past year, according to the annual review.
Featuring cameos from none other than T-Pain, and as always, Grime’s namesake, Goosebumps author RL Stein, the mix rinsed tracks and IDs from Sable Valley mainstays such as Kumarion, Juelz, and Heimanu, as well as from talent beyond Grime’s imprint, including DROELOE, Hudson Mohawke, and Baauer. SoundCloud’s 2020 Playback also spotlights the platform’s most-played artists, such as Mexico’s rising star, Natanael Cano, 100 Gecs, Beabadoobee, and Rema, all of whom sat at the top of SoundCloud’s list of artists to watch in 2019.
If you still haven’t gotten enough of “Halloween IX,” you’re not alone. Stream it again below.
