voted for that Boredoms song. haven't listened to VCN in a couple of years though, at least.

So far Boredoms and Sigur Ros are my only votes that have placed.

Come on, Poland!

the first track i voted for. fuzzy bliss.

Water Get No Enemy and Krautrock are my second and third to show up. Frankie is one of my big regrettable oversights (along w Starla) (though I might post a quick rundown of shit I forgot to nominate in the campaigning thread when this is done)

what the actual fuck this street hassle thing is the fucking most abominable shit i've heard

'the cello's nice though'

for some reason the repetition + these lyrics come off as so insincere and postured, it's like he wanted to write this grand emotional street epic, man, and forced it out any way he could. so lazy

next up, sigur ros

second thoughts, leave the house

Imago otm re street hassle.

Sigur ros track is cool. The bass has a ton of bite.

I used to like it more when I was at university. The big corny ten-minuter I prefer(red) is the airstrikes one, but their placement here comes off as an April Fool more than anything

most of the rest seems good-to-certifiably-awesome, personally a great fan of the faust and the neeeeewsuuuuunnnnn

Sincerity is for rockists.

Good to see Night of the Assassins. I didn't vote in this so it could make it to #100, glad the plan worked.

My sincerest apologies for not voting, as my projected top five for Night of the Assassins would have done it possibly better justice. "Dull lo-fi guitar jam" my foot, that shit's incendiary beyond a plane we barely know. Glad to see Hornets place, at least. If anyone knows of music of that calibre produced currently, please let me know.

They used to play French Kiss on the radio and cut out before the orgasmic breakdown and even then it was unbelievably exciting to 13 year old me. Seemed to open up a whole new world and still works a dance floor like little else.

two of my choices bookending the bottom twenty. still have high hopes for the pärson sound number making a showing though.

tbf, "insincere and postured" is the vibe that Lou inhabits most of the time. funny thing is it rarely results in bad music.

Only one vote placing so far (Orbital) but a few others I would probably have voted for if I'd noticed them on the massively long nominations list.

haha great to the see the klf in there, never been a big fan of IGUN compared to the white room stuff
kinda bummed to miss out on voting but been some great stuff i probs would have picked place so far, great job everyone :)
faust, boredoms & dénudés personally favs in this first group

yeah kind of amazed night of the assassins was that low, but I guess I didn't quite vote for it myself. makes for a lovely pacesetter tho

looking forward to getting home later and listening to this lot. set a course for planet herbie

Shocked that "Frankie Teardrop" has already shown up. I figured it was a shoo-in for the top ten (although I don't think it's in my own top ten).

Scott and Mingus off mine have placed.

Only Zercon and Boredoms have placed from my list so far. Going to try to make time to listen to the rest of them tonight, apart from Frankie Teradrop which I already know and, er, strongly dislike.

Faust, Suicide and Lou Reed have placed from mine.

i passed over a $2 copy of french kiss on saturday because i was already over my record store budget :-(

I'm delighted to see Rutti make it. It's my first vote to place. Such a beautiful song.

Well, there's the JAMS and Faust, two more of mine choices..

That's four so far. I doubted there'd be five, well there's one I'm certain will be there, and maybe three more?

I was probably a bit previous, seeing as how there's 100.

OK, new guess: 15.

Voted for My Gen and (Circle) -- Krautrock was a late cut, possibly the last one I cut before sending.

I was thinking "Did I miss out Frankie?" but I had another look at my actual ballot, and I'm still fine with what I sent.

Damn Water No Get Enemy way too low.

lotta vote-splitting with the Fela songs, is my guess (I voted for a different one)

I voted for 4 or 5 Fela songs, it was too hard to choose just one.

I voted for a different Fela tune too, but I'm a-ok with anything by him placing (except for the horribly sexist "Lady").

I gotta say, I'm a bit disappointed that most of the tracks so far have barely passed the 10 minute mark. Where are all the real, 20+ minute epics? I'm glad "Hornets" made it though, it's pretty much my favourite jazz tune of all time... Such a nasty, relentless groove!
