Okay, here’s now the final decade (apart from the current one)

Like with Lord of the Rings, you’ve got the Hobbit scores in that decade. Now they are not on the same level as THE LORD OF THE RINGS, and the movies are certainly not nearly as good, but Shore’s score lacks only in comparison but is still is quite a very good score and achievement. So it gets a full mention:

2012  The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey (Howard Shore)
2013  The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug (Howard Shore)
2014  The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies (Howard Shore)

But here are my takes “Hobbit-free”. I just did a cursory look through my collection, quite possible I would fine tune this (like any other list) or switch and change things, if I think a bit more about it.

2010  Tron: Legacy (Daft Punk)
2011  Drive (Cliff Martinez)
2012  Cloud Atlas (Tom Tykwer, Johnny Klimek, Reinhold Heil)
2013  Oblivion (M83)
2014  Interstellar (Hans Zimmer)
2015  Jupiter Ascending (Michael Giacchino)
2016  Arrival (Jóhann Jóhannsson)
2017  Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets (Alexandre Désplat) (or BLADE RUNNER 2049 by Benjamin Wallfisch & Hans Zimmer… I couldn’t really make up my mind)
2018  First Man (Justin Hurwitz)
2019  A Hidden Life (James Newton Howard)
