ILM 2013 Tracks Poll: Murmuration of Stats, Ballots and Real Punks

It's the part of the show that you've all been waiting for!

Full results are here: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AumbddEHET5xdDhHdXJhYUJPN1R6TDhKSHI5TXFJa1E

Cool track stats:

Enthusiasm: Average points per ballot, divided by the max it could have (50).
Popularity: The Spotify Popularity score for the track, if it's on Spotify. No idea how they calculate it.

Aggregated artist ranking: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AumbddEHET5xdDhkcDFaMVVMS0lhUTNWY2VxM2Joc3c
Note that if a voter voted by multiple tracks by an artist, only the highest-scoring vote contributes.

The voter spreadsheet is here: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AumbddEHET5xdEp6TzhmeUtuQTU0MkFrTTZ5MTI5LXc
I've kept all your favourite voter stats with ridiculous names from previous years:

Hivemind score: this is the average points total for the tracks on your ballot; how your ballot was ordered doesn't change the score. Most Hivemindy voter is...Murgatroid!
Fuxxor Quotient: the proportion of tracks on your ballot that were in Pitchfork's top 100. Most Fuxxory voter is...voodoo chili!
Antifuxxor Ratio = Hivemind divided by Fuxxor Quotient. A high ratio means your taste is much closer to that of ILM than to that of Pitchfork. This year's infinite Antifuxxors are...EZ Snappin, centurionofprix and karl...arlk...rlka...lkar...!
Populism: the average Spotify popularity of the tracks on your ballot that are also on Spotify. Most Populist voter is...Sandy!
Loneliness: the proportion of your tracks that nobody else voted for. Most Lonely voter is...EZ Snappin :(
Blood Sausage Index: The average points total for tracks that didn't appear on a collection of other EOY lists. Essentially, whether you love songs that nobody outside of ILM cares or knows about. Most Blood-Sausagey voter is...Drugs A. Money, oi mate!
Top neighbour: essentially the voter whose ballot intersects most with yours. Hi Ari!
You should probably read: The non-ILM EOY tracks list that intersects most with yours.

yay numburs!

Yeah, I got the same which also surprised me and I guess it would bother me more if it was like '05 or something, when it wasn't just as annoying to hate on Pitchfork as it was to hang onto their every word (which sounds like it goes against my post about them in the other thread, but not really - my point in that was that their tastes don't really align with ours at this point).

I think Pfork's day-to-day tastes align a lot more with ILM than their poll tastes do.

Although, if VW wins best album in our poll next week, I'm gonna burn all this shit down. xps to me

some p cool lists in here

I'm the #2 most populist voter. How proud I am. I didn't save my actual ballot, but my #1 was "Tennis Court"

Oh nice one, emil.y voted for that Mazes track too! :D

shouts to prolego for shanell vote and etc for shuanise vote

My Top Neighbour is apparently nakamura... I don't even know who he or she is!

lool emil.y's number 1 track was pushed off the bottom of my ballot by her number 13, them's the breaks

Oh nice one, emil.y voted for that Mazes track too! :D

― Toni Braxton-Hicks (Turrican)

I don't normally like them all that much but I really like that one. Just wiry and repetitive and kind of hypnotic.

props to whoever put bar bar bar bar by crayon pop at #1
i love you

#6 for loneliness, #133 for populism, #80 for blood sausage and #128 for hivemind. Christ.

Yup, that's the reason I like it, just the groove of it and the interplay of the guitars.

Props to jaymc for being the other vote for Laura Mvula's "Green Garden". The rest of you suck.

i got pitchfork reader which was a bit strange

I didnt get a chance to nominate stuff this year and pretty much everything I wanted to vote for wasnt listed.

I guess I should listen to the Yamankata // Sonic Titan album then.

It really is great

hah some dude its just funny as I never read it. but I guess seandalai doesnt have a list for terrorizer poll

Thanks so much for another fantastic EOY extravaganza Johnny Fever and seandalai. I think this was one of the best run downs in history. Very varied, something for everyone, despite a couple of repeat artists. But the important thing I think is that so many styles got a look in, and that Hot Fruit placed.

Here's my weighted ballot.
Apparently I read Pitchfork and am closest to PFunkboy in taste.
Tracks that didn't place have YouTube links and I suggest you lot watch them ALL because they're flippinnnng great.

devvvine confusing me by voting for some of the more baffling (to me) inclusions in this poll AND my number 1, at number 4

*searches own soul*

something for everyone

Not really.

Hot Fruit came in at #63 iirc, so there's your "something".

Don't know what my list was anymore, I voted SNSD - I Got A Boy to #1, someone else did as well, only 5 votes in total means a miss, unfortunately.

That was me! Probably one of the reasons we're closest neighbours. We need more campaigning next year.

Yeah, I guess so. Just would've liked a bit more variety in general.

xp

"i got a boy" cut from my ballot at the last minute, sorry k-pop ppl

"Green Gardens" was on my shortlist, EZ

The lower rungs were more in line with my tastes and therefore maybe more interesting. Wasn't that excited by a lot of the top 15 bar a few exceptions. But that's the tracks list for you.

Lol @ my Blood Sausage award. I was gonna use emil.y's 'nobody within or without' line but I did get a few songs that got some traction behind them ( The Hive, Rianticism is Always Fatal, Oh Bondage Up Yours!)

My other two votes besides Bardo Pond were #beautiful (which is kind of a Starburst commercial but I do like better than Get Lucky or Blurred Lines) and KING's In the Meantime which I thought was way cool. Voted for Amel in albums ballot. Wouldve posted 'Trapped Being Human' for imago if lex hadnt got to it first.

I feel a little exhausted after that... can't wait for the albums roll-out.

*Romanticism

Nice one for voting Oh Bondage Up Yours, Drugs A. Money - that was my #1

You'll probably hate a lot of it but it's relatively varied, I think.

I'm mostly enjoying it actually, only as far as Hookworms though. Yamakata and Matmos really good.

249 Paramore - Daydreaming 105 3 1

it was behind a fucking Lorde album track

The only Lorde songs it was behind are "Royals" and "Team", which are both top 10 hits. The actual Lorde (mostly) album track that I voted for at #1 was even lower.

post yr damn ballot G3orge

my neighbour is someone called m✧@mindl✧✧✧.c✧✧

i could easily have filled my top 10 with paramore trax

optimistic about their performance in the album results now. #2 in the aggregated artist poll!

I didn't bother nominating anything for tracks and put my votes together very quickly with not a lot of thought so this isn't really representative of what I thought the best tracks of 2013 were but here you go:

^yep

Tricot - Ochansensu-su

Only just got round to hearing the Tricot record, it's good!

Whoops I got the boldy rubric the wrong way

to boldly bold where no man has bolded before

that tricot record is the best

Charisma.com - Hate

Love this. Would've voted for it if I thought there was a chance in hell it would place.

emil.y and craigo are like my neighbors down the block or something

So the only track on my ballot for which I was the sole voter was Brad Paisley's "Southern Comfort Zone." What happened, some dude?

Hopefully not the annoying neighbours you hate. xp

Main things I'm kicking myself for: dropping 'Wenu Wenu' for some weird reason, not listening to 'Q.U.E.E.N.' before voting ended.

def would have voted for 'stoner' or 'danny glover' had i heard them before like yesterday...so incredible

i don't remember what i voted for, the same as p&j but with some stuff thrown in, mainly i voted for kacey musgraves, so i was disappointed that there wasn't more kacey musgraves, but i guess that's the way it goes

otoh i expect good things in the album results

One of my favourite things about the individual ballots is seeing how stuff that I only quite like is vitally important to others, it's a good reminder that there's always more to whatever you're listening to than merely what you hear in it.

didn't know you were checking for TT The Artist, rev! never totally got into her stuff.

rev, i think if "stoner" had come out three months ago instead of right at nominations time it would have done much better

glad to see your ballot btw!

Given how many songs we all hear and kind-of-like in a given year, Top 25 is a pretty strict cutoff.

That TT track has been my secret DJ weapon this year! Girls go fucking nuts when you put that on.

Q: would permitting a larger ballot flatten out the results or would it make them more esoteric?

Would depend on how voters reacted, I guess. Also, "flatten" could mean different things. More homogeneous wrt genres, artists,...?

Personally I think 25 works well.

it depends on the voters rather than the amount on ballot. In previous years I would have said esoteric (and argued thus)
but now? A larger ballot would work on albums but I dont think tracks.

How about giving the #1 more points tho?

You could give a "#1 bonus", then you'd have to decide what to do with unweighted ballots and how to minimise fractional scores.

The voting system is fine, guys.

seandalai how different from metal poll is the points here?

The voting system is fine, guys.

Agree. I was just curious what the effect would be on the results with a larger ballot, and I think the answer is "who knows".

I'm impressed that 3 other people voted for Paramore's "last hope"! That was my number 1. Didn't really expert it to get any votes.

only change to voting I would make is to not allow ballots from people who have never posted

Metal albums poll had weighted ballots only, 50 votes per ballot, points go 50,49,...,1.

There are some names I don't recognise but I think the vast majority of voters are legit and I'm not really interested in policing who can and cannot vote.

so I am the top blood sausage voter that did a full 25 ballot, i deserve some prize for that

Glad to see some tricot tracks showing up, threw my main weight behind the album, will maybe get enough votes to go top 100.

Love the two people who chose Glacier and Omanko as their #1s

ILM poll is really just a big group hug.

― a man with legs made of sausages - that's not real! (seandalai),

I thought some years we gave the #1 more weight?

and re real users - in metal poll there's tons of names I dunno yet they've been voting year in year out since glenn and i started it and they had to email in ballots back then.
I do wish Cronos Smith would identify himself tho!

actually a few lurkers did de-lurk this year on ilm and the poll thread.

there's never any block voting either to suggest its fake ballots. I think ilxors are too grown up to bother with that shit.

the top artists not to make the countdown is kind of interesting:

1. M.I.A.
2. The 1975
3. Chance the Rapper
4. Ariana Grande
5. Young Thug
6. 2 Chainz
7. The Juan Maclean
8. Boards of Canada
9. Kidnap Kid

So - I thInk - only two of the tracks from my ballot made the 77. As such, will not be posting it as I'm afraid of being mocked and perma banned.

post it, anyway.

No! I am shame
Also: lone tear for Avant Gardiner just missing at #79

Only two of mine made it, I still posted.

I checked the spreadsheet - apparently only one did!! I also do not have mt ballot handy - I'm in a shack in costa rica right now.

I will say, my #1 was Unbeleivers and I also gave high votes to Courtney Barnett and Jagwar Ma.

Hell yeah al leong, Germans! I thought I was the only one here who was into them/her. Random discovery for me, they followed me on Soundcloud, but they have at least 2 fantastically smooth synthpop songs: this one and "Wonderhow"

and Blondes

at least we got 1 nazi on the poll amirite

2. “Echelon (It's My Way),” Angel Haze
3. “I’ll Be Around,” Yo La Tengo
4. “Nothing Is Real,” Boards of Canada

Please reserve judgment about artist repetition until you have seen my album ballot. I think this is the first year I've submitted a full 25-track ballot, and the list I cut this down from could have given me 25 different artists, but I voted with my heart (more or less).

Saw some people questioning the placement of Full of Fire in the other thread

Need to point out it was properly released as a single

Obviously I'm as guilty as anyone else of voting for deep album cuts

But fuck you anyways

Going through the list of songs that didn't place

Feeling mad that Hot Juice placed and these didn't

Fuck ILM forever

Hot Fruit?

yes mr glyph, I think I had 8 tracks in common with you, and 6 in common with toby. It would have been 7 but I bumped Above the Cherry Moon at the last minute - what a great discovery for me, that track!

mixed:

John Grant - Glacier

Asaf Avidan - Love it or leave it
Bruno Mars - Treasure
Chase & Status - Count On Me ft. Moko
CREEP ft. Lou Rhodes - Vertigo
Daft Punk - Get Lucky
Daft Punk - Instant Crush

The Knife - Full of Fire
Wild Nothing - A Dancing Shell
Woodkid - I Love You
Young Galaxy - Pretty Boy

The poll rollout introduced me to some great songs I hadn't heard. I didn't have as much time to keep up with ILM this year so I'm grateful for that.

I think all the people who liked Duke Dumont or Rudimental should check out Chase & Status.

It would have been 7 but I bumped Above the Cherry Moon at the last minute - what a great discovery for me, that track!

I was pretty naive in thinking that it had any chance - I guess I was pretty naive all round in my ballot, I'd forgotten how many people had to vote for something for it to place.

Still, an amazing track, and an amazing artist. Hope his album lives up to the 2013 12"s.

Hell yeah al leong, Germans! I thought I was the only one here who was into them/her. Random discovery for me, they followed me on Soundcloud, but they have at least 2 fantastically smooth synthpop songs: this one and "Wonderhow"

i don't know if you nommed germans, whitey, but i only heard it bc of the spotify list. it was one of my late adds. loved it!

also i'm stunned that i was apparently the only person who voted for betty who's "you're in love". and maybe i was wrong about where i voted it? i thought it was #2 but maybe #3? no matter.

also i'm stunned that i was apparently the only person who voted for betty who's "you're in love"

I would've, but my BW vote went to Somebody Loves You and, with the exception of Beyonce, I didn't double up on any artists with my ballot.

Agoria - Scala

Yes! Love this one.

Who was the other Katie Got Bandz voter?

― The Reverend, Thursday, 23 January 2014 23:48 (Yesterday)

*raises hand*

Thought maybe monotony or lex might vote for it, though I guess there's an remote chance Drillary Clinton makes an showing in the albums rollout.

Who voted for KLP - Hands (Dcup Deep Bitch Remix) as their number one? I nommed it and had it as my no.3, glad to see someone else really likes it.

Thought maybe monotony or lex might vote for it, though I guess there's an remote chance Drillary Clinton makes an showing in the albums rollout.

i haven't had my katie got bandz moment yet like i've had with sasha go hard. talking of whom, i'm surprised and disappointed no one else in the world seemed to care about "rondo"; i wasn't into her before that but it was a WHOA moment for me when i first heard it and it stuck like that for the rest of the year

drillary clinton is obv the best album title of 2013 hands down though

"Rondo" was the last thing (along with Popcaan's "Unruly Rave") I cut from my EOY list on The Corner :(

BTW Lex, thanks for repping Shuanise's "Mercy" so much, was great to play out last year.

I liked things off that Eglo comp but I was more into that Wires track.

Bun Fi Bun is next level

Rudipherous's ballot is awesome in both spirit and content

I'm so glad ppl voted for the selma oxor & neneh cherry tracks I nommed & then negged, I was feeling guilty

also I would have strongly considered voting for KLP had I heard it in 2013

the funny thing is we only voted for like 4 of the same songs. but the same #1. hi neighbor!

the really funny thing is that Ylvis was one of the last songs I cut

Can't believe The Fox picked up votes but Treat Me Like A Pirate didn't.

Shame to see the fuck button votes split three ways so evenly. It really is a solid ep.
"Brainfreeze" was the standout for me.

it's just a bandz a make her dance rehash, which at first iw as like "oh come on" but i love bandz so much i kinda came around to it

yeah i did dismiss it for a while also & the chorus is still problematic imo but idk i really love the verses & will take a bands sequel any day

Self-centered aside: even though I have fairly eclectic taste (though maybe not particularly so by ILM-standards) I do find that I tend to be primarily excited about one, or at most a few, different types of music at a time. Like for much of 2013, the big thing for me was getting a handle of some sort on so much more dance/dance pop music than I used to like. And while that's added a lot more new pop to my listening, it's almost all dance pop. (Other things I've had time for this year have tended to be a lot less commercial.) Like, I'm making my way through this playlist and trying to fill in some gaps in what I heard of the poll winners, but I'm really just waiting to getting back to DJ Q mixes.

I think that eclectic but narrowly focused at a given time thing probably started in my mid-20s, and has probably become more extreme over time.

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AumbddEHET5xdEp6TzhmeUtuQTU0MkFrTTZ5MTI5LXc

Toward the right side.

it's the voter who's most similar to you in terms of sharing items on your ballots (roughly)

Me and flopson have been closest neighbs 2/4 years of the current poll regime

is there something that explains what, say, categories e -- j ("hivemind score" -- "blood sausage," respectively) mean in that spreadsheet?

Yes. The very first post.

thx! somehow missed that.

Destiny's Child - Nuclear

It caught my ears a bit at polling time, but it keeps sounding better. Kind of shocked to look back and see how long it landed. It's mostly, but not exclusively, the chorus that does it.

(And I strongly suggest life imprisonment for NickB.)
