Also, reminding me I want to check out that private press new age comp
Same here - that and the DJ Sprinkles one that placed are the two I really wanted to get around to before voting but still haven't heard.

it's respected among people who enjoyed previous Thicke albums, but the hit certainly didn't lead many people to listen to the album who wouldn't have otherwise

Eh, definitely feels weak among his discography.

Since there's an issue of it open on page 50 right next to my laptop, I guess I can't disagree with that.

w/r/t albums crossing demographics, i notice sky ferreira had a big impact on the dance crew itt - i noticed this elsewhere too (the factmag staff loved her). i can't actually fathom why this is!!
― lex pretend, Thursday, 30 January 2014 22:33 (ten years ago) link
La Lechera - we shared two picks, so in comparison to the bulk of voters that puts us not as neighbors but at least on the same block.
― EZ Snappin, Thursday, 30 January 2014 22:33 (ten years ago) link
yar DJP has been a major player, and not least because I've magically ended up liking everything he does (except his number one, lol)

EZ - but clearly we don't live in a place that has blocks -- it's like we share adjoining vast tracts of land and we have to rig up the dog sleds to visit our neighbors. Sort of like real life, I guess.
