As 2010 comes to a close, Joey Hansom compiles a few of the year’s best non-heteronormative dance tracks, new singles from Lykke Li and Hercules & Love Affair, and some older recordings from theremin virtuoso Clara Rockmore, followed by a suite of off-kilter holiday tunes: The Superions make the yuletide gay with “Fruitcake”, while Poly Styrene (of X-Ray Spex) and Evil Beaver bend classic carols into “Black Christmas” and “Little Drummer Girl”.
