Kitsuné, the always tastemaking Paris/Tokyo label has made a lot of heads turn in 2008, with both music and fashion endeavors. It’s only right they came through with their top 10 of 2008 playlist. Listen and read what they had to say about each track.

A future anthem! European techno vs NY undergound: 2009 can begin.

Streetlife DJ’s – “Gunn Crime”
A disco firework! The best bootleg of 2008 is not one;-)
When the dancefloor becomes a rollercoster!
