WONDERLAND’S SONGS OF 2023 SO FAR

The Wonderland editorial team pick out their favourite tracks from the year so far!

We’re over halfway through 2023 now, so we thought it was about time that we, the Wonderland editorial team, rounded up our favourite tracks of the year so far. As you scroll through this eclectic list, you may quickly realise the diversity of taste from the team, causing many debates sat around an overpriced lager or white wine after work at the pub.

It’s been a year of huge collaborations; from Dave and Cench putting their heads together for the biggest rap song of summer, to Arlo and Phoebe amalgamating devastating sad girl energy, and KAYTRANADA and Aminé proving to be the ultimate producer/rapper combination. We’ve had statement tracks from trailblazing rising stars like Jim Legxacy, Khamari, Olivia Dean and Maisie Peters, as well as the welcome return of industry sweethearts like King Krule and Dominic Fike.

Take a look at the list below: get to know, return to familiar favourites, or simply judge us.
