(21/40)

Whaaaaaaat?! Had NO idea they had an album out this year. Holy shit.

The circumstances are a bit special, you can read about it on their bandcamp:
https://windyandcarl.bandcamp.com/album/blues-for-a-ufo

Oh dear... That sounds awful. Am/was a huge W&C fan but this flew by my radar completely, can't wait to play it. And will chip in for the good cause.

you crazy bastards broke the album playlist.

So here's: <a href="http://open.spotify.com/user/forksclovetofu/playlist/2ymp6yQ3AlQmuXtQRCVMyK";>ILM's Top Albums of 2017 - Nominations pt. 2 Spotify Playlist</a>

xp

we're gonna break the albums playlist again, aren't we?

― sleeve, Thursday, December 14, 2017 8:56 PM (three weeks ago)

the second album playlist is already at 26 hours btw

(first is at 740)

ALBUMS

Sevyn Streeter - Girl Disrupted
Jonny Nash - Eden
Jefre-Cantu Ledesma - On The Echoing Green

3/40

(I think everything else for me has been nominated and I've left it too late to scan my library thoroughly)

TRACK
Freezy - Split In De Middle
(22/40)

boxedjoy it's Jefre Cantu-Ledesma not Jefre-Cantu Ledesma. it's already on the list btw

The Susanne Sundfør album seems to be missing from the Spotify playlist?

Just a thought but shouldn't the Young Marco 'Welcome to Paradise' compilation be down as just one nomination rather than two? It was released as two volumes on vinyl (both out at the sane time) but also as one 21 track digital release. Would seem a bit odd voting for one over the other

xp it's in the new one now.

Thanx. Found it hard to believe it hadn't been nominated yet.

Dauwd - Glass Jelly
Diferit - Dreamscapes
