YES STATS ZONE: ILM 2014 Tracks Poll Thread of Ballots, Statistics and Meditation

Why is it do hard for people to follow the bolded tracks placed template?

for years, most people here have favored bolding things that didn't place in the poll, i.e. highlighting what was unique or unheralded from their list. doing it the other way around seems like a more recent development and frankly i don't even see the point in bothering in bolding the stuff that placed. and afaict there's no rule that it has to be done that way.

I'm surprised "Latch" has never placed before. 533rd in 2012, apparently.

monotony was my top neighbor, but j0rdan was his. I am no one's. :'(

My top genre is synthpop which is absolutely OTM. My closest neighbour is octobeard but I have no idea who that is.

loads of voters names i dont recognise after not posting for most of last year. Was there a big influx or just gradual?

genre spreadsheet is a fun read but lol @ some of these classifications - meghan trainor as "hip pop", iggy azalea as "alternative hip hop"

I don't remember ever seeing anyone post with the name taytay fan, but who knows.

Oh, also hi to Melissa W; I am apparently your top neighbour.

also what genre is ninos du brasil b/c i want to hear more things like that

I'm not 100% convinced that taytay fan is a bona fide ILX poster. Otherwise it's mostly regulars I think - some names I don't recognise but the number of voters is m/l stable from year to year and I don't imagine that ILM readership is growing dramatically these days.

xpost Mine was a ranked list. My top neighbour was Re-Make/Re-Model.

― seandalai,

Bit unlikely a taylor swift fan would google a poll to vote in I suppose. It's not like there's isnt loads of her fans here.

jf is just naturally suspicious, lol

plus forks posted up there about the username someone has

i think i may have seen taytay in a username now you mention it but i cant think where

i hope it was 'cosplay fan taytay'

I'm curious as to who produced "Stanley".
― Tay-Tay Brooklynpants (Murgatroid)

monotony: Ninos du Brazil are a couple of Italian percussionists who combine the sounds of Brazilian batucada with house beats. There lots of neighboring artists that do industrial with tribal elements, but nothing that really embraces the original organic sound.

Murgatroid submitted his/her own ballot though.

@Sanpaku: that's nice but I was hoping for 9 other similar songs as they don't show up in the genre spreadsheet (nor does hodgson, btw, my other main poll discovery)

i'm very curious as to what was on saer's 5 track ballot

yeah he did
xxp

EchoNest doesn't have any genre info for Ninos du Brazil, unfortunately.

saer voted for his favourite trees actually

FKA twigs was up there on his ballot

id be more suspicious if taytay fan only voted for taylor swift but i daresay the polls have had ballots before that only voted for tracks by one act?

all we needed was another highly placed nils frahm vote or two to get it into the 77

Hi guys

I am not taytay fan

My top genre: microhouse
My top neighbour: some guy called Craig
Most likely to read: The Quietus

babymetal was so close to placing

omg hi five for kalenna, emil.y

i do actually think one of my favourite annual EOY traditions is veering between alternately butting heads with you over like 70% of stuff and then being in total agreement the rest of the time. one of my most treasured r&b songs of last year and its one other voter wasn't any of the r&b crew or the pop crew or even the post-dirty money axis stans (JUDASES btw) but emil.y

fwiw I like Murder too, and I probably could've worked it into my ballot, but everything I put on there made sense to me at the time.

This poll made me pull LP1 back out and it still rules

weighted:

Jack J - Something (On My Mind)
Nenad Markovic - Weather Vibes

YG - Left, Right
Indiana - Solo Dancing
Orange Caramel - Catallena

for some reason around the time i make my ballot i always get really delusional about what might have a chance of placing. if i had nominated it'd look a lot different.

my top genre is apparently outsider house, idk were that terms comes from, but it makes me think of like LIES and opal tapes or something, not what's on my ballot

my top genre is "ambient", I'll take it
