nomination and discussion thread for possible top 100 electronic dance tracks of the 00s

Well, it's not so much "my list" as much as just everything here, copied, pasted, and arranged. I didn't bother going through each nomination to make sure it qualified.

There's no way I'm going to plough through this whole thread to find out if there was ever any agreement about what counted as 'electronic dance music', so I don't know if the Ada track I'm nominating counts (it's certainly electronic, but you probably wouldn't dance to it):

Ada – Happy Birthday
The Age of Selfishness – Wakako’ka
Art Department – We Call Love (DJ harvey remix)
Awanto 3 & Tom Trago – Good Old Days
Cajmere – Say You Will

Will carry on alphabetically later on...

we'll need to do some sort of collective list editing after the deadline is up but before the voting happens

will post a google doc soon

thanks EDB for the cut and paste action

Sascha Funke - When Will I Be Famous?

Cobblestone Jazz - India in me
Âme – Balandine

don't worry abt alphabetizing, excel will do it for you

just follow the format

artist name - track name (remixer)

a few of those were already nom'd

xpost

excel will fix that too, it'll be easy to spot once converted into a spreadsheet

The 00s means 2000-now, yes? Not 2000-2009?

yep

so i'm *already* starting to think about how to tally and count and score votes

i know the "ranked ballot" thing from 50 pts for #1 to 1 pt for #50 is popular, i have some niggling doubts that its actually the best way to do it because it seems to heavily favor certain parts of the distribution, but at the same time i know its a very subjective question.

for example, it seems slight un-fair to me that 5 #10s has the same weight as 4 #1s, or that 5 #20s have the same weight as 3 #1s. i guess what i'm saying is that it seems to heavily favor the center of the distribution which might be why so many "middle of the road" choices place relatively high on certain poll threads.

personally i am sort of leaning in favor of a pazz-and-jop style poll where people have, say, 100 points to divide among 10-20 choices, that way a few people w/ bad taste can't commandeer the poll and everyone's choices are meaningful

OTOH like i said, this is all off-the-top-of-my-head thinking and i've never participated in *any* other polls on ILM or ILE so i'd love to hear everyone's suggestions

also EDB and anyone else who wants to help me with logistics please shoot me a webmail
