I did mine in a rush so it is lost to time, but I know that my albums that placed included Shabason & Krgovich, darklife, Mondays at the Enfield Tennis Academy, Music for Four Guitars, and...maybe one or two more?
Still don't understand how the Anna Butterss record didn't place.

I believe I swapped out Adigéry/Pupul at the last minute, making do with tracks from it two years in a row. And swapped Earl Sweatshirt out for something more marginal too. So that's only the 24 I'm sure of. I also seem to have carelessly pasted in my non-preferred Sam Gendel!
Thanks a lot to whoever nommed MLDE. That's definitely a despite-being-the-sole-vote-I'd-never-heard-this-before-the-noms-playlist situation.

My very hivemindy ballot (it turns out I voted for Bad Mode after all!) - though that in part reflected that I didn't nominate anything so several of my favourite 2022 albums (e.g. Puscha, dreamcastmoe, Szun Waves) weren't available options.

I really liked what I heard of the Thumbscrew but I didn't get to the whole album yet as there was a lot of Halvorson this year between digesting Amaryllis/Belladonna and the Tacuma collab and seeing Code Girl live. I look forward to listening to all of it. The Anna Butterss was really good too but I didn't spend enough time with it, through no fault of it's own, cf. Lage and Frisell albums.

finally caught up on that kiwi jr. album today. "the extra sees the film" is top tier songwriting

I really like those guys — catchy tunes, clever lyrics.

Kiwi jr. are great but their album last year seemed weak compared to the one before or especially, the debut.

It is my third-favorite Kiwi Jr. album, but still lots of good tunes.

Out of all my orphans I'm most surprised at Ezra Furman not making another ballot.― a man often referred to in the news media as the Duke of Saxony (tipsy mothra), Sunday, 5 February 2023 22:55 (yesterday) link

I need to spend more time with this. I’d been slightly underwhelmed with Ezra’s work post-Transangelic Exodus, but the 2022 album sounded like a potential rebound when I listened to it,

my chaotic weighted ballot:
mj lenderman - boat songsCate Le Bon - Pompeiialdous harding - warm chrisAlvvays - Blue RevDry Cleaning - StumpworkBill Orcutt - Music For Four GuitarsBilly Woods - Aethiopesbitchin bajas - bajascillatorschat pile - god's countrycola - deep in viewhorace andy - midnight rockershorsegirl - versions of modern performancemike adams at his honest weight - graphic blandishmentRichard Dawson - The Ruby Cordsexual jeremy - the real sexual jeremy
i don't really feel happy with it as a representative ballot, i was kind out of listening to music in 2022 and i know i missed a ton of good stuff, especially good stuff outside of my immediate wheelhouse. but i wanted to throw some points to the albums i did hear and enjoy
i kind of hate it when people are like "i was surprised ____ didn't place!" bc it's always something that's obvious to me why it didn't place (usually it's some weird niche album) but if i had one of those it was the aldous harding album. i thought she was reasonably popular and that that album was well-liked

yeah I was a little surprised by that too, but I think the response on her thread was a little cooler than her previous album. I personally warmed up to it and now like it just as much as Designer

actually, i would've put the beths somewhere in the lower half of my ballot. it's absurd to correct a hypothetical ballot, but they're just so good and so sweet, 2 AM aches in such a relatable way

Finally bought it and it's wonderful, just what I want to be listening to.
