it surprises me 0 percent that you like the awful pharrell tracks
(the title track is p good given the circumstances)

lol I was gonna say, calling 'breathin' the nadir appears, from a perusal of reviews, to be a massive challop
― imago, Thursday, 7 February 2019 13:46 (five years ago) link
call it as i hear it yo
the title track is one of the better pharrell tracks and i liked "successful" a fair bit too because it sounded like animal crossing music. "breathin" is way better though even though it's basically just a dangerous woman leftover

Shame not to see Szun Waves place. It's probably the one I've most often foisted on people this year. And I'm guessing I'm largely alone with my Good, the Bad & the Queen love. God, I feel old.

I also voted for TGTBATQ
― mfktz (Camaraderie at Arms Length), Thursday, 7 February 2019 14:25 (five years ago) link
And Sweetener
I liked TGTBATQ! But didn't vote for it. But it's good Albarn (as opposed to most Albarn these days)
― imago, Thursday, 7 February 2019 14:26 (five years ago) link
I feel a) old and ii) grubby for voting for Albarn. Glad I'm not alone!
― Good cop, Babcock (Chinaski), Thursday, 7 February 2019 14:29 (five years ago) link
really looking forward to Autechre placing #1 today
― frogbs, Thursday, 7 February 2019 14:30 (five years ago) link
I have had an excellent realisation btw
― imago, Thursday, 7 February 2019 14:32 (five years ago) link
i think that autechre song i started playing during the tracks poll is still going on
― simmy simmy ya, simmy yam simmy yay (voodoo chili), Thursday, 7 February 2019 14:32 (five years ago) link
if gaz coombes can crack the top 20, then there’s every chance albarn has made it too

New TGTBATQ is dreeeary. I liked the single though.

tbaf to it, it is kind of a concept album about dreariness
― imago, Thursday, 7 February 2019 14:37 (five years ago) link
And I am kind of dreary.
― Good cop, Babcock (Chinaski), Thursday, 7 February 2019 14:41 (five years ago) link
getting paul simonon and tony allen to play on an album full of dreary plodders is borderline criminal imo

The Clash could plod with the best of them.
― Good cop, Babcock (Chinaski), Thursday, 7 February 2019 14:49 (five years ago) link
they fought the plod but the plod won

i was the first place laurel halo voter and it's my favourite thing she's done; astonishing record.
― devvvine, Thursday, 7 February 2019 15:33 (five years ago) link
i didnt expect this makaya mccraven to be so post rocky and tortoise/chicago underground duo-ish
― Oor Neechy, Thursday, 7 February 2019 15:50 (five years ago) link
Someone should've told me earlier
Yeah, got strong Horse Lords vibes on the one track I've heard so far
― Mario Meatwagon (Moodles), Thursday, 7 February 2019 15:52 (five years ago) link
FYI on mccraven: dude tapes his live sets and then remixes them after for loops and effects.
― Fuck the NRA (ulysses), Thursday, 7 February 2019 16:01 (five years ago) link
The title track is so gorgeous
― jmm, Thursday, 7 February 2019 16:07 (five years ago) link
Whole album is gorgeous tbh! my fave is likely Black Lion.it's not quite as good but "where we come from" which is ALSO from 2018 is definitely worth listening to as well.
― Fuck the NRA (ulysses), Thursday, 7 February 2019 16:10 (five years ago) link
looks like I am going to be a euro ilxor sat in an mostly empty club later tonight, following the final rollout of these albums by the glow of my phone, nursing a vodka tonic pale ale, while sad German techno some underground rap nonsense throbs in the background
― ogmor, Thursday, 7 February 2019 16:10 (five years ago) link
we've just had a new ikea open today, could follow it from there

i feel like a little kid waiting impatiently at the gates of the candy factory here. when do we see inside the top 20?
― goats eat grandma (NickB), Thursday, 7 February 2019 16:12 (five years ago) link
to be honest, the early part of these rollouts is more interesting, when more surprises pop up. The final 10 or 20 feel a lot more inevitable, what with all the guessing that's already happened.
― enochroot, Thursday, 7 February 2019 16:16 (five years ago) link
Is it so inevitable?

How upset will people be when Koenji Hyakkei take #2
― ultros ultros-ghali, Thursday, 7 February 2019 16:19 (five years ago) link
I don't think all those people who guessed the top 15 placements are too far off. It's just the ordering that's still up in the air. The new discoveries for me have probably already happened (Lala Belu, Eiko Ishibashi)
― enochroot, Thursday, 7 February 2019 16:22 (five years ago) link
pretty upset, #2 is too low
xp
― frogbs, Thursday, 7 February 2019 16:22 (five years ago) link
how about all the pissed off 30+ ilm synthpop fans when robyn misses the top 10?
― Oor Neechy, Thursday, 7 February 2019 16:22 (five years ago) link
What are you thinking will place, enochroot?

I could be wrong, but I think you're overestimating how strongly people feel about that record. I'd be really surprised if it makes the top 10, but also maybe top 15?
― Johnny Fever, Thursday, 7 February 2019 16:27 (five years ago) link
i would rather see robyn place top ten in your poll tbh friedrich neechy
― goats eat grandma (NickB), Thursday, 7 February 2019 16:28 (five years ago) link
if Robyn really had 30+ voters she'd be like top 3 but i don't think she'll get that many
― ufo, Thursday, 7 February 2019 16:29 (five years ago) link
Cheers for that nick!
― Friedrich B. Neechy (Oor Neechy), Thursday, 7 February 2019 16:30 (five years ago) link
lol I meant 30+ in age
it's not quite as good but "where we come from" which is ALSO from 2018 is definitely worth listening to as well.
Listening now. The looping and editing seems more foregrounded on this one, not quite as seamless.
― jmm, Thursday, 7 February 2019 16:30 (five years ago) link
oh lol xp

I think Janelle Monae will win actually . Just a hunch.
