it would be either West Coast or Where You Go I Go Too, probably the latter

xpost re: untrue
yeah that might get a lot of ppl like me who don't ever follow dance...but dudes were making such a fuss about it i downloaded it and ended up liking it....
but i have zero frame of reference for whether it was really good or innovative compared to other stuff...i just ended up liking to listen to it
i'm pretty sure i voted for it

that would be Untrue

I concur. My bets lay on Untrue placing at #10.

if we narrow the definition of "dance album" to "album you can dance to" we're left with just booka shade, of these options
― لوووووووووووووووووووول (lex pretend), Tuesday, 13 July 2010 16:20 (thirteen years ago) link
i mean did any of these other "dance" albums being mentioned give us an "in white rooms" AND a "mandarine girl" AND a "body language"?
There is no consensus as to the real consensus dance album of the second half of the 00s, clearly.
I thought Gui Boratto - I thought EVERYONE loved that - or Booka Shade . But Burial is prob what Matt DC meant, although it doesn't feel like/function as dance music to me.
― Citizen Smith (Jamie T Smith), Tuesday, 13 July 2010 16:23 (thirteen years ago) link
I reckon Matt meant the Lindstrom album
― RIP la petite mort (acoleuthic), Tuesday, 13 July 2010 16:24 (thirteen years ago) link
Sound of Silver would be the consensus "dance" album, if it's considered dance.

Matt's post just prompted me to read that RA best of 00s for the first time. No Lindstrom at all there, strangely.
― Citizen Smith (Jamie T Smith), Tuesday, 13 July 2010 16:26 (thirteen years ago) link
lindstrøm is ilm-consensus, burial general crit-consensus
(booka shade were some intersection of ilm consensus, dance crit consensus and actual populist club crossover consensus; isolée was dance/"experimental electronic music" crit consensus only; the field were pfork indie consensus (a pejorative).)
― لوووووووووووووووووووول (lex pretend), Tuesday, 13 July 2010 16:28 (thirteen years ago) link
^^^ would agree with all this, actually
pan-genre crit consensus pick would be "Untrue", no contest

― hoos gossage (J0rdan S.), Tuesday, 13 July 2010 16:37 (thirteen years ago) link
i've said this before but i only enjoy the singles from HHNF -- not sure why that is tho
does "experimental electronic music" refer to the-genre-formerly-known-as-IDM
― ciderpress, Tuesday, 13 July 2010 16:38 (thirteen years ago) link
lex you are a smart guy but you basically become like the glam version of alex in NYC when you talk about any kind of rock music.
You say that like it's a bad thing. :::sniff::::
― Alex in NYC, Tuesday, 13 July 2010 16:41 (thirteen years ago) link
I think indie-approved dance is the successor to IDM, especially if we're talking about the likes of Four Tet and The Field

interesting that Love Vs. Money will apparently place higher, didn't really expect that (I prefer it, but voted for neither)

this was actually the name of the album when press about it was just coming out, but then they shortened it -- i for one own all three CDs!
I'm going to give Love/Hate another go, see if I like it more in light of the new one.
Yeah the consensus album I was talking about was Untrue, although I like most of the dance albums mentioned above loads more. West Coast is not dance music in any sense of the word.

i think LVM has always grabbed a wider swath of ppl on ilm even tho there was always a really monolithic and loud contingent of L/H disciples on the board
― hoos gossage (J0rdan S.), Tuesday, 13 July 2010 16:53 (thirteen years ago) link
the first terius song i heard was "ditch that...", in rich four four's end-of-year mix of 4x4 house beats in r&b and hip-hop at the end of 07. it was one of the few i didn't recognise, and for a few weeks i genuinely assumed he was an amazing new deep-voiced dyke rapper. i STILL think that if missy elliott had any balls left by then she'd have done "ditch that..." as a comeback single.

I'm totally torn as to this vs West Coast. On the one hand this doesn't have Out There or Indo on it, but on the other, it does flow like a motherfucker, and take you on a coherently awesome journey...

WYGIGT is a fun album -- i rarely have time to listen to the whole thing, and i'm not sure where i rate it amongst lindstrom albums -- i guess behind feedlity & real life is no cool but ahead of II, at least in terms of stuff i'm really familiar with

I guess I should check this out again, didn't do much for me at the time. I really love the Lindstrom and Christabelle album from earlier this year so will give this a second chance.
― State Attorney Foxhart Cubycheck (Billy Dods), Tuesday, 13 July 2010 17:04 (thirteen years ago) link
I liked WYGIGT immediately; it's warm and squishy. Wish the tracks had more of the power of Aeroplane's remixes though.

the title track is just beyond incredible to me, like i can't even explain how difficult it is to layer sound that effectively
