During september – november 2023 we received a lot of entries for the List of ‘Best ever Electronic Tracks‘. Our plan was to have as many people enter this list of tracks into the (Dutch) Radio NPO 2 voting system for the end-of-the-year Top-2000 broadcast list. (Click here for our compiled Best Ever Electronic Tracks list).
The Top-2000 ranks
Unfortunately our ‘Best ever Electronic Tracks’ list has not had lot of impact on the NPO2 Top-2000 broadcast list. In fact – the list is very much the same as all the years before. But we have filtered out all the tracks that might be of interest to our subscribers and followers. The following list shows the electronic, synth-pop and symphonic/rock tracks that have been included in the NPO2 Top-2000. The tracks from this list will be aired from boxing day (2nd Christmas day) until New Years Eve on dutch NPO2 Radio.
