My track ballot (weighted). Bold did not place:

Charlie Puth with Meghan Trainor - Marvin Gaye

EZ Snappin, Thursday, 21 January 2016 23:12 (eight years ago) link

Ooh, I'm getting better at this.
#101/137 Hivemind, #108/137 Fuxxor Q, #36/137 Antifuxxor, #99/137 Populism, and #37/137 Loneliness, #48/137 Blood Sausage, #11/137 Hotttnesss!

djmartian and I are mutual closest neighbors, in our land of Euro-RYM listers

Per the convention of bold didn't place, my mixed ballot:

TRACKS (mixed)

1. Shura - White Light
2. Absofacto - Dissolve
3. Soap&Skin - Mawal Jamar
4. Jennie Abrahamson - Wolf
5. Susanne Sundfør – Accelerate
6. Saad Lamjarred – LM3ALLEM

Grimes - Realiti (Demo)
Holly Herndon – Interference
LA Priest - Learning to Love
Laura Groves - Dream Story
Susanne Sundfør - Delirious
The Knocks ft. Alex Newell - Collect My Love
V V Brown - Flatline

I was evidently the only voter for Absofacto - "Dissolve", Soap&Skin - "Mawal Jamar", Soko - "Who Wears the Pants??", Goldroom ft. George Maple – "Embrace", The Knocks ft. Alex Newell - "Collect My Love", and V V Brown - "Flatline", and this both saddens me, and gives me a vague sense of smug superiority.

idk maybe it's because you think the best albums have the best songs on them? idgi. which list gets priority over which list?

u kno how that shd go (Will M.), Thursday, 21 January 2016 23:46 (eight years ago) link

"here are the best albums without any good tracks on them" vs "here are the best tracks on bad albums"?

u kno how that shd go (Will M.), Thursday, 21 January 2016 23:47 (eight years ago) link

i don't go out of my way to avoid it, but i ended up w/ just 5 of my tracks being from albums i voted for, mainly because i focus on proper charting singles etc

EveningStar (Sund4r), Thursday, 21 January 2016 23:47 (eight years ago) link

well, i want to rep as much music by as many artists as possible, ideally, given how many there were making amazing music in any given year, and doubling up reduces that

cher guevara (lex pretend), Thursday, 21 January 2016 23:47 (eight years ago) link

Lots of people just aren't singles/tracks oriented, so the songs on their face lps are the ones they want to vote for. Seems like the wrong way to do things, sure, but I'm partly guilty of it myself.

def my most hivemindey year i can recall

gr8080, Friday, 29 January 2016 18:11 (eight years ago) link

I was the second loneliest ilxor with a full ballot and flying solo on the following (country and Youtube plays in brackets):

Vremya I Steklo - Imya 505 (UKR, 57.5m): Addictive Ukrainian house-pop with a ridiculously simple and effective hook.

https://youtu.be/n3Go8ub9a1k

Anna Sedokova - Poka Milii (UKR, 3.6m): In a very similar vein. Sedokova hasn't recorded much of interest since leaving the Menudo-style conveyor belt of VIA Gra ten years ago but this was an excellent return to form.

https://youtu.be/QmSvEaiaxBM

Angela Hunte & Machel Montano - Party Done (T&T, 2.5m): Montano is horrendously over-rated and over-garlanded as a solo artist but Hunte kills this and Machel provides adequate support. Soca single of the year and one of the best Trini videos in recent memory.

https://youtu.be/eHr8zZfrU_Y

Nyusha - Gde Ti, Tam Ya (RUS, 19.3m): Tempting to argue that Anna Shurochkina is working a formula, given that this sounds almost exactly like half the songs on her last album, but it's a heck of a formula. Thumping electro-pop with vaguely Eastern trappings.

https://youtu.be/IwpDzJE4fc8

Dasha Charusha ft Skriptonit - Kosmos (RUS/KAZ, 0.2m): The original version of Kosmos is a slight but pretty ballad - Kazakh rapper Skriptonit transforms it into something much more powerful.

https://youtu.be/xKoSAgDrYsE

Igor Krid - Nevesta (RUS, 21.4m): Russia's answer to Justin Timberlake with an effortlessly charming song about getting hitched.

https://youtu.be/Jg3gwyoUrhE

DKMD - Sacrificio (CAN / ITA, 0.007m): On Cologne's Giallo Disco records and squarely in step with the aesthetic of the name. An upscale version of the Italo-horror-influenced witch house stuff knocking about.

https://youtu.be/udcujCjOebk

Delta Goodrem - Wings (AUS, 1.7m): Goodrem was always fairly good at emotive low-key piano pop but this is a huge, euphoric and much better than could ever have been expected. idk why it wasn't more of a hit.

https://youtu.be/z1A2Ow7sGo0

Loose Cannon - Sick Jab (GRD, 0.006m): Relentlessly intense, mildly terrifying Grenadan party music.

https://youtu.be/NGaQvOhrWwk

Tina Karol - Sdat'sya Ti Vsegda Uspeesh' (UKR, 1.2m): OTT power ballad that Karol manages against the odds to steer into something genuinely affecting.

https://youtu.be/kG46IzgdB0Y

Elena ft. Danny Mazo - Senor Loco (ROM / COL, 5.2m): The trend of Romanian pop stars pretending to be Spanish continues unabated and this was the year's stand-out. Getting the genuinely Colombian guy to stand around in the background shouting "dale! fuego! si! si!" for most of the song might be slightly problematic tho.

https://youtu.be/lQPCWp2A_Rk

Ira Levtiskaya - Vova Tantsuet (UKR, 0.3): An oddity among oddities. I haven't been able to find out much about Levitskaya other than that she appears to have been a model at some point and is married to a minor oligarch who is presumably bankrolling her pop career. The song is probably best described as Putin-baiting oompah-pop and Ira sells it well.

https://youtu.be/cdOdCDFa1GY

Gulsen - Bangir Bangir (TUR, 156.2m): Pulsing Turkish moombah-pop.

https://youtu.be/icZ-OlVSvb4
