NOUGHTIES/NOWTS/00s POLL CAMPAIGNING SIDE-THREAD: Youtube, Bandcamp & other links to YOUR nominations that AREN'T ON SPOTIFY

trim's soulfood is a murky late night odyssey that covers a lot of ground while still adding up to something coherent, all carried off with a wry light touch. whole thing's on youtube but as a reminder/taster -

just wanna remind everyone that The Juan Maclean album The Future Will Come is amazing and that I will be voting for it

it's also on spotify

regardless, the juan maclean >>>>>> lcd soundsystem

oh whoops, sorry!

revisiting all the DFA (& similar) stuff is quite disappointing. definitely remember spaghetti circus, casual friday and even stuff like laughing light of plenty & rub n tug being more exciting and less corny, oh well.

Jens Lekman's Maple Leaves is not on Spotify and it's probably my favorite song of his:

sampling a song that itself was a bunch of samples ("since i left you") is kinda odd

It doesn't sample Since I Left You. It just happens to sample Glen Campbell's version of "By The Time I Get To Phoenix", while Since I Left You samples Tony Mottola's version of "By The Time I Get To Phoenix".

I've never heard of most of these acts (and most of you have never heard of me no doubt so who cares right?)

I propose that the 00's were the decade when the notion of a critically approved musical canon of new music disintegrated. Tastes in new music have maybe become too fragmented. The only commonalities of interest for the decade among ILM posters will be blog house, indie rock/metal, and hipster-approved R&B/hip hop.

Of course it's quite possibly an issue more of the changing ILM community than music fandom in general. Anyway wake me up when there's a poll of top "continuum" music for the decade.

Casual Friday is definitely not "corny" tho. Maybe heaping on the hipster irony a little overmuch but the rhythm is still smoking hot.

fwiw I hate all of these except for *some* indie rock

i love generalizations about ilm’s taste, give me more

You saved me from having to post it! Definitely top ten for me. I'm perpetually underwhelmed by later Lekman, after he got the goofy puns and sampling so right early on.

I wanted to vote for Lekman's Black Cab but no one nominated it :( which i guess is my fault for forgetting to submit nominations

I don't know if the full 16m composition is streaming anywhere but you can hear about 3m of Robert Normandeau's Éden here: https://electrocd.com/en/oeuvre/14030/Robert_Normandeau/Éden

that should have been an embedded image but it was disallowed by VAR

the record is Darand Land obviously and is my only suggestion because I forgot the others
