who r BIG 4 ilm?

Neanderthal is Neil Young!? How did I not know this.

Is there a thread for a who’s who or how do you all have this common knowledge.

I just very recently found out JD Twitch is around ILM too.

feel like bradnelson is a pivotal ilm lodestar

i'm the 100 gecs dude

Being the 100gecs dude doesn’t count as being big anywhere.

xxpost yeah they've seriously been one of the best posters across the board over the past idk five years? longer? my sense of board time is really distorted these days.

yeah thirded, bradnelson is top shelf

this is for ILM thinkfluencers, not famous posters

agree. also Tim F's approval is essentially papal

that said, popularity circlejerks are nagl, ur all v wise and interesting

agreed

instead of a big 4 posters imo we should work out the big 4 differences ILM has from other music communities

here's my effort

- poptimism was won so long ago and so firmly that pop is kind of ancient lore & rite here, not something new and exotic that we're suddenly allowed to like. this puts ILM at odds with other communities that I've seen going through the same wars we did 15 years ago

- by far the best EOY polls & celebrations in existence

- absolute intolerance of fatuous thinking, which is mostly a positive but also sometimes i do feel a tiny, tiny bit sorry for the Turricans of this earth. adapt or die tho tbh, i did

- definite progressive agenda forcing regular posters to go without their usual anglocentric listening habits (while also still catering to the latter plenty) - again, a v good thing, even if u all diss indie 2 much sometimes

anglocentric/manocentric. an ilx alltime canon would be much, much more female than almost all the other canons, and frankly, good

specific user such as imago

lol

I played guitar in an unsuccessful indie-rock band in Glasgow around 2002-2003 so I'm a pretty big deal

may he forever climb

shoutout to saer and vahid for constantly dropping techno house heaters old and new

agreed. and breastcrawl for afro stuff, dow for country, morrisp for pop. There's a nice collection of about 25 people on this board who do a good job patrolling genres of choice.

shoutout to colonel poo & gott punch 2 hawk wind (up da punx)

saer is a treasure, even if it's not always my thing I admire his aesthetic & commitment

Brad is essential, always happy to see the passion & breadth of taste

Really I appreciate everyone on the jazz and various dance music/electronic threads

sounds like deej is doing well, honestly, embracing wholesome hobbies. i am very happy to hear this.

Is that two wholesome activities or one gnarly but dangerous activity?

actually i think he’s a podcaster now

I figured that was a Wu Tang ref and he's working in A&R now.

ya it was

im just teasing tho, if u follow his twitter he constantly tweets abt his current job (as a podcaster)

i think neil young (neanderthal) is more famous than owen pallett
