2021 has been a whirlwind of surprises - from ABBA's comeback, Foo Fighters venturing into disco-boogie, to an unexpected east-west collaboration of Coldplay & BTS - new music was served in abundance too with more producers & musicians spending a majority of time in the studios due to the absence of live-shows. As per tradition, the Pulse crew shifts through the new releases and pick their favorites tunes of the year that was.
