not heard of katie gately before - this is real rad, will def be checking out the catalogue
― nxd, Monday, 19 January 2015 16:00 (nine years ago) link
The "woo-hahs" in that tune-yards bit remind me of Busta but not in a good way
― 龜, Monday, 19 January 2015 16:00 (nine years ago) link
forks, there is a katie gately thread here: Katie Gately
― Ottbot jr (NickB), Monday, 19 January 2015 16:02 (nine years ago) link
Katie Gately-thanks for bringing this to my belated attention.
― campreverb, Monday, 19 January 2015 16:03 (nine years ago) link
but yeah, 'Pipes' is def the highpoint in her oeuvre thus far xp
― Ottbot jr (NickB), Monday, 19 January 2015 16:04 (nine years ago) link
sorry for spoiling a surefire top five finisher but interested parties should check out this (much more concise) track imo - https://soundcloud.com/katiegately/far-1

ogmor otm
v heartening this placed :) i wonder what else is coming...
― rae sredrum (imago), Monday, 19 January 2015 16:08 (nine years ago) link
Huh, I'm a little surprised to see that two of my top 5 have placed ("Song for Five and Six" #2, "Pivot" #4).
― EveningStar (Sund4r), Monday, 19 January 2015 16:08 (nine years ago) link
thanks for the link; this is okay but sounds like it requires lengthy listening and focus and probably headphones/live exposure.Far is much more immediately accessible for sure
― Sounds like a forks display name (forksclovetofu), Monday, 19 January 2015 16:09 (nine years ago) link
ok listening to K Gately now, and this is pretty fantastic. So huge.

― nxd, Monday, 19 January 2015 16:14 (nine years ago) link
i didn't vote for "mister chameleon" but i'm psyched it placed
― emo canon in twee major (BradNelson), Monday, 19 January 2015 16:14 (nine years ago) link
Never heard "Somos Sur" before, this is fun.
― MikoMcha, Monday, 19 January 2015 16:15 (nine years ago) link
Wow, only one track to not have a first place vote so far
― 龜, Monday, 19 January 2015 16:16 (nine years ago) link
I always liked "Mister Chameleon," but it sounds especially sweet to my ears this morning. :D
― Johnny Fever, Monday, 19 January 2015 16:17 (nine years ago) link
Oh wow, this track is mad political. Interesting.
― MikoMcha, Monday, 19 January 2015 16:17 (nine years ago) link
Voted for the tijoux album but glad to see track place
― ØYE MATS (wins), Monday, 19 January 2015 16:18 (nine years ago) link
this ana tijoux track is banging, want to understand the lyrics
― lex pretend, Monday, 19 January 2015 16:19 (nine years ago) link
i guess i'm suffering through this katie gately track wondering if the directionless holly herndon singles are going to place
― emo canon in twee major (BradNelson), Monday, 19 January 2015 16:19 (nine years ago) link
Didn't vote for Katie Gately but her + Julia Holter was my favourite concert of 2014."Somos Sur" I hadn't heard before the poll - cool track, bet it is massive in Germany.
― seandalai, Monday, 19 January 2015 16:19 (nine years ago) link
Sombra da Lua is GREAT
― warm winds and clear skies, Monday, 19 January 2015 16:19 (nine years ago) link
i'm mostly lukewarm on tune-yards but a friend drove me through new orleans while blasting "water fountain" last year and it felt pretty cool

I guess I appreciate this Katie Gately track and I'm happy it adds to the diversity of our poll, but today is probably the only time in my life I'll ever listen to it.
― Johnny Fever, Monday, 19 January 2015 16:21 (nine years ago) link
"somos sur" beat reminds me of the brief period marching bands and horns were a thing in rap - "rock yo hips", "get buck" etc
i did try with k gately and didn't hate it but i didn't feel anything at any point either
― lex pretend, Monday, 19 January 2015 16:21 (nine years ago) link
Didn't vote for Somos Sur, but the album is fantastic.
― Mordy, Monday, 19 January 2015 16:22 (nine years ago) link
K G kinda reminded me of those "Pitbull slowed down 300x!" 30 minute long tracks you find (one of which I believed placed like 5 years ago, think it was the BIEBS)
― 龜, Monday, 19 January 2015 16:22 (nine years ago) link
the owen song is incredible of course, probably my favorite from that record
― emo canon in twee major (BradNelson), Monday, 19 January 2015 16:22 (nine years ago) link
so many good melodic choices with the vocals on that OP track.

oh wow i am absolutely down with this ninos du brasil track
― emo canon in twee major (BradNelson), Monday, 19 January 2015 16:24 (nine years ago) link
Ooooh, Somos Sur is reeeeeally nice.
― Johnny Fever, Monday, 19 January 2015 16:26 (nine years ago) link
This Katie Gately is good!
― ØYE MATS (wins), Monday, 19 January 2015 16:28 (nine years ago) link
the last few have been at least been an improvement on the horrible first 3 but not liked anything yet! Still early days though
― saer, Monday, 19 January 2015 16:30 (nine years ago) link
gonna use 'I'm happy it adds to the diversity of our poll' for every pop country song
― rae sredrum (imago), Monday, 19 January 2015 16:30 (nine years ago) link
None of them? Tough crowd.
― Johnny Fever, Monday, 19 January 2015 16:31 (nine years ago) link

Quick post something he likes so that we can soothe saer

(I did my best NickB impression for that)
― 龜, Monday, 19 January 2015 16:35 (nine years ago) link
Have listened to "Sombra" about eight times this morning tbh.
