A great ski playlist is priceless. And have you noticed that ski and snowboard films set the trend? They tend to feature artists that become mainstream hits just a few months later (MGMT, M83 and Imagine Dragons to name a few). So I sat through one ski movie premier after another, hoping to glean all the new music they brought with them.
Tunes can get you pumped at the top of a run or seem to keep rhythm with your skis as you turn through powder. Combining some new shred jams with favorites that never get old, I have put together my top 20 tracks for the endless winter of 2013-2014.
