ILM's Top 77 Tracks of 2012

true, farrah is more wtf than lmao

to the extent that there's such a big difference between "Gangnam Style" and net-only musical memes, "Friday" is kind of in a weird halfway point

GTFO if you only appreciate 'Friday' as lmao, frankly.

I can get with Le1f - minimalish but insistent instrumentation, nice vocal timbre, some good lines. Not that I'm *that* into it, but it would've been a nice symmetry to have two songs called 'Wut' hit the number one spot.

xposts - 'Gangnam Style' isn't fit to lick the rainbow poop of the cat.

lol i love the al walser song but even i could not find space for it in my ballot, don't think it has much of a chance. same for nicole westbrook

"Wut" works a treat on the dancefloor (esp compared to the big Mykki Blanco tracks); it's one of the crisper tracks off Dark York tbh!

holy shit that le1f track is fucking awesome

HEY GRIFF

is there anybody compiling a rolling spotify list for this, i need to catch up

=D

BRING IN THE KATZ!

i think i like "soda" better but "wut" is cool

Totally read that as 'Hatz', was hoping for a novelty song about different types of hat. Oh well.

Always associate this with the good Rev.

Pork Chop is one of the funniest most likable people i've ever met, was really cool to see the world outside Baltimore kinda discover him this year

i feel like i've entered a different dimension with these last 2

Thanks Dan!

this song bangs/is hilarious. i couldn't imagine dancing to it but fatman scoop shit, let's do it.

don't really get the complaints about the "wut" mix, it's nice to hear something that's trying something a little different in obscuring the vocals a little, it makes the beat pop more - this is actually a pretty standard steve albini production trick though used in a different context obviously

Okay, this song is melting my face off! LOVE!

omg 'bring in the katz'

i feel like i'd really love "bring in the katz" if i'd heard it in a club anywhere last year

hahahah this is great

this makes me feel like kinda how I wished death grips would make me feel

^^^^otm

i love how new jack swing keeps coming back, we r not ready to let go of goofy sped up tamborinebeat

Not even any cat samples so far. Bah humbug.

"Bring In The Katz" holy shit
best song i've discovered from this list so far

ahhh wish i could listen to these rn. need to catch up during lunch break

yeah this song rules

this makes me feel like kinda how I wished death grips would make me feel

Love this.

best song i've discovered from this list so far

otm

I don't use "epic" much, but everything about this track is epic imo and I want it to last for an hour.

If you're going to insistently say "bring in the cats" then I WANT CATS, goddamn you. Where are they???

Probably the best reaction to an unknown track regardless of crowd anywhere/context I DJed this, really teaches you how to dance/appreciate it over the course of under 4 and a half minutes. You gotta vision it, you gotta see it.

i just want to go outside and scream "BRING IN THE KATZ" at the first person i see

that sounds pretty cool. weird juxtaposition of machine gun stabs and very relaxed parts. i really like it. something different.

the kats are brought in as the song progresses. they're nuzzling against the dude's ankles. somehow he doesnt notice and he keeps screaming "bring in the kats"

i just want to go outside and scream "BRING IN THE KATZ" at the first person i see

lol

i am listening again, the katz do not come in for like 30 seconds

i listened to this song a bit too much this year but i was so blown away first i heard it, something really mysterious and beguiling about it which is weird to say since it's just a big banger. if british people named a silly genre after stuff that sounds like bring in the katz i would read the ilx thread about it

30 other songs are gonna have a hard time topping this one, really.

btw, bring in the katz youtube dance vids are essential:
