THE 2011 ILM SUPER-MEGA YEAR-END ALBUMS 'N' TRACKS POLL™ is open for nominations!

Bayou Goo seems like an amalgam of Lex and r|t|c, with the caveat that I'm pretty sure r|t|c wouldn't vote for a couple of those.

And wouldn't have a "212" related user name.

How do we feel about Back & 4th (Hotflush) and 116 & Rising (Hessle Audio), compilations which are one disc of new material and one disc of previously released stuff?

pretty sure those are cool but i'll let the ppl running it judge. i'd like to see them included, at least.

what r ying yang twins like in 2011?

like awesome

Christine Fellows - Femmes De Chez Nous

How is this? I can't remember at all but I'm sure someone hear was waxing lyrical about this somewhere!

argh! HERE not hear

It is lovely if you like that sort of thing. Which I suspect you might.

Not enjoying the patten album very much I'm afraid guys. Sounds like two IDM records being played over the top of each other.

ALBUMS

Plaid - Scintilli

(9/25)

Listening to/skimming the Spotify playlist (piracy is so old-fashioned) and really into almost nothing on ILM's track nominations list.

Nominate some more tracks then :)

Anyone notice that when you play the Nyan Cat! track in Spotify, the progress bar is Nyan Cat?

Plaid - Scintilli

WTF I didn't even know this existed. Excited.

Matt - really? It's worth checking out. I wrote a lengthy screed about it here.

Kudos to whoever nominated Mano Le Tough BTW, love that dude

Opal - This Me Know

I'm guessing this isn't *the* Opal. Ach, it's so easy to google potential band/artist names now (or look at last.fm), why do people just not bother?

I think people have the right to perform under their given names whether they share it with some metal band or whatever.

And it's like really like dancehall queens and metal bands are competing for marketshare either.

Opal (the original) is neither of these things, btw.

Oh alright, I shouldn't have assumed that.

Emily's point is valid, though. It's the easiest thing in the world now to see if anyone else has put out records using the name you want to use. If you choose to go forward at that point, be ready to make some people irritated.

Not really sure internet penetration in Jamaica is that great (a quick google search says not really, no), esp. among the poor, but OK.

And also, back to my other point, it's not the end of the world or even a big deal, like at all.

"Intentalo" comes as a breath of fresh air on this playlist. I didn't even know it was nominated. I'm still not convinced it works all that well translating tribal into pop, but I will vote for it.

I am very happy with ilm's pattern of nominating pretty much every song I might want to vote for. Thanks guyz.

I think I'm back down to 15/25 as Meshell Nedgeocello had already been nominated. Apparently Wild Beasts had already been nominated too but I didn't spot them.

Tracks

Wolfram Feat. Sally Shapiro-Hold My Breath
Teddiedrum-Odd Lovers
Alex Winston-Locomotive
Dum Dum Girls-Coming Down
Rimer London-Aim at my Body
Wild Beasts-Loop The Loop

21/25

Def voting for "Locomotive"...thanks for nomming it so I didn't have to :)
