The Tastemaker’s Ten offers you a brief, educational playlist to help introduce some of your favorite musician’s favorite musicians. To kick off our new series, we asked Pete Hinz of JJCnV, a man of discerning taste if ever there was one, to provide us with “ten tracks he thinks everyone should know.” We got back some doozies. Confining Pete to only 10 tracks was the real challenge, but he came through with a stellar list. Enjoy.
