ILM's 2014 End of Year Albums & Tracks Poll / NOMINATIONS THREAD

that last one should have an exclamation point at the end... If You Don't Like It...Don't!

iirc votes for remixes were generally combined with votes for the original version in the past. so my question: are new (2014) remixes of tracks that have previously placed eligible? i am thinking of bey's "flawless" remix w/ nicki minaj here.

Tracks:

Lilly Wood & The Prick - Prayer In C (Robin Schulz Remix)

21/30

have added my tracks noms to the playlist btw JF

Cool! I was maintaining it alone up to a certain point, but since it's collaborative any ilxors on spotify who nominated tracks can add those tracks to the playlist. Less work for one person (me!).

I added my noms to the list too. (Except for "Zen Cruiser", which doesn't seem to be in Spotify.)

That Happy Meals track is great. Checking out the whole ep right now.

Gigi Masin - Talk To The Sea
Jeezy - Seen It All (The Autobiography)

(15/30)

Not sure there's anything else on the Happy Meals record that's as catchy as that one song. Lots of it is just kind of pleasant and drifty iirc.

Crap. Sorry about that! I hadn't heard any of his stuff before this year. Didn't like his current release so went backwards on Spotify and ended up listening to Galactic Melt about a hundred times forgetting it was not his most current. Guess I will forever associate it with '14, either way!

xp It is for now. I'm sure j0rdan will get around to filling it soon.

Just noticed that the wrong Guru track has been included in the Spotify Tracks playlist, "Akayida (Boys Abre)" instead of "Boys Abre", that is track 6 instead of track 4 of his album "Boys Abre". Unfortunately, his killer track "More Vim (Boys Abre)" didn't make the album. His best track, the Boys Abre-free "Pooley" is in the YouTube playlist though, so all is not lost!
(DJ Xclusive's "Ibebe" seems to be missing from either list by the way, it should be on Spotify, alongside his other nominated track "Jeje").

so i missed the nominations period, i doubt much of this stuff would've gotten more than my own vote so i suppose posting it now is just as useful:

i wouldve voted for a least three of those...

thing im saddest i didnt manage to nominate is mark rogers + mary byrne's 'i line my days along with your weight' which is the sort of thing i think lots of other ilxors might like and deserves w/e wider recognition it can get

which ones lamp? i think i remember you mentioning the morgan buckley

yeah that, rotla, 'rhythms of the pacific' and the xenogears were all on my personal best of lists

did you hear alex dimou's 'sweet berries'? i really liked that

yeah! i checked it out after you posted it on that other thread and i really dug it, first thing i've heard of get physical in a long time. i also like the mark rogers - mary byrne, i don't listen to a lot of folk music but the way she enunciates reminds me of judee sill? i think?

i'm glad someone else heard the rotla EP, it's awesome. gaussian curve is probably the one i most wish i had nominated, but i don't think many people have heard it yet.

Two i think of as glaring omissions from the tracks list are Roman Flugel 'Wilkie' and Andre Bratten 'Trommer og bass' but that's my own fault for not nomming anything.

i'm pretty surprised no one nominated anything by pender street steppers, i guess they didn't catch on with the bobbins crew like i'd imagined, or maybe bobbins isn't participating much this year

yeah, wilkie is great, the album was nominated tho and i'm happy to treat it as a whole

xenogears is so good

i mean lost artemis!

people that like 'rhythms of the pacific' should check out the cloudface LP

Mac Demarco - Salad Days seems to be missing from the Spotify albums list
http://open.spotify.com/album/1l9d1Zj9Iv2eOcdObVhdMy

I'm finding tons of great tracks on the Spotify list, to the point where I can have it just play out, and then this comes on: Idina Menzel, "Let It Go".

srsly?

favorite discovery from the spotify list so far is probably Âme remix of Sailor & I, totally haunting and stays in my head al l day

damn forgot to nominate again. most of the stuff on my list is covered but here's some stuff i would have nommed:

tracks:
Gangsta Boo, La Chat - Sum 2 Do
Patrick Topping - Forget
Big Sean - Paradise
Rayven Justice, Keak Da Sneak, Philthy Rich - Slide Thru
Lupe Fiasco, Ty Dolla $ign - Next To It
Guy Gerber, Diddy - Floating Messiah
Tiesto - Wasted

albums:
Marcel Dettman - Fabric 77
Mick Jenkins - The Water(s)
Chief Keef - Back From The Dead 2

should have nominated the heatsick album re-engineering that came out right at the end of last year, that was a nice morning album
