i didn't do much trawling through the noms this year because... well, i think i've got a solid list that really reflects what i was attracted to this year (even though i kinda felt like i didn't pay attention at all). but i did see this black coffee remix on the list and think "well, black coffee fucking rules, i'd better listen to that" and eight minutes later i'm weeping

Brad, first Sun-El, then “Sondela” and now this. I really think the best thing you could do at this point is just listen to the South African noms playlist I made (no people, I promise I won’t link to it again, you can find it slightly upthread). Also, bookmark the House of Sun-El thread if you haven’t already.

Got some tough decisions myself in the tracks poll. Albums won't be so hard

Do I only have room for one 90s revival rock song? And if so, will it be Goon flawlessly channeling the Dandies...or Swervedriver channeling...Swervedriver?

just realized i nominated the kontravoid album titled too deep and not the track, i apologize to the many ilxors whose votes i no doubt swayed who won't be able to vote for it. album is good too tho

karl...arlk...rlka...lkar..., Thursday, 23 January 2020 21:02 (four years ago) link

Voted. Trying not to stress that my nominations didn't get through...

They didn't get through? :(

opden gnash (imago), Thursday, 23 January 2020 21:48 (four years ago) link

wow. that black coffee remix is amazing.

The remix of Luxman’s “Thandaza”, also nominated by kruezer2, is beautiful as well.

finalising my ballot tonight and trying to figure out whether to put "god control" at #1 or not vote for it at all

The following is listed twice in the albums list:

Toshio Hosokawa -Gardens
Mario Caroli, Ukho Ensemble Kiyv & Luigi Gaggero - Toshio Hosokawa: gardens

Poll-runners take note: accidental vote-splitting because of this could cost it its top ten spot.

Don't toy with my hopes like that (I didn't notice the latter and went with the former).

pomenitul, Friday, 24 January 2020 12:03 (four years ago) link

I checked and it was your completist and accurate self who nominated the latter ;) (I'm going w/ the former)

Le Bateau Ivre, Friday, 24 January 2020 12:08 (four years ago) link

i nommed:

chief keef & zaytoven - glotoven

but its not on the album nominations list, can i write it in?

They didn't get through? :(


Should I get an error message if they didn't?

lefal junglist platton (wtev), Friday, 24 January 2020 13:23 (four years ago) link

Not sure. It's always good to check with seandalai if you're unsure, but you can probably still vote for them as write-ins

opden gnash (imago), Friday, 24 January 2020 15:02 (four years ago) link

Voted!

groovypanda, Friday, 24 January 2020 15:12 (four years ago) link

i've been listening to a playlist i made out of my longlist for the past four days and every time i come across a track that i just won't have room for i get real sad, in this particular instance it was call super/parris "chiseler's rush"

american bradass (BradNelson), Friday, 24 January 2020 15:19 (four years ago) link

ballot sent!

devvvine, Friday, 24 January 2020 15:39 (four years ago) link

it was all whirlwind heat and flash... but I voted

human and working on getting beer (longneck), Friday, 24 January 2020 15:52 (four years ago) link

The Squalls Of Hate (sleeve), Friday, 24 January 2020 15:56 (four years ago) link

Dog Is Daed (Oor Neechy), Friday, 24 January 2020 15:58 (four years ago) link

kiss me i voted

maffew12, Friday, 24 January 2020 16:52 (four years ago) link

Some kick and rush required here too. The new J Hus and Master KG albums will have to wait.

breastcrawl, Friday, 24 January 2020 17:04 (four years ago) link

^likes SA so much they've started using rugby metaphors

speaking of grime, I hope enough of you have heard the JME album...

opden gnash (imago), Friday, 24 January 2020 17:09 (four years ago) link

Voted

With considerable charm, you still have made a choice (Sund4r), Friday, 24 January 2020 17:10 (four years ago) link

few things make me feel more detached from ILM than looking through the tracks nominations and seeing 8 million Mark Ronson songs

totally unnecessary bewbz of exploitation (DJP), Friday, 24 January 2020 17:10 (four years ago) link

the Angel Olsen one is good; I almost voted for it.

few things make me feel more detached from ILM than looking through the tracks nominations and seeing 8 million Mark Ronson Purple Mountains songs

but who knows maybe I'll like 'em

nashwan, Friday, 24 January 2020 17:18 (four years ago) link

dammit Mark Ronson

nashwan, Friday, 24 January 2020 17:19 (four years ago) link

hey sean, how many ballots you got so far?

Fuck the NRA (ulysses), Friday, 24 January 2020 17:19 (four years ago) link

also, how did two Bat For Lashes songs get nominated and neither of them was "Jasmine"

totally unnecessary bewbz of exploitation (DJP), Friday, 24 January 2020 17:22 (four years ago) link

ditto 3 clipping. songs and none of them are "Nothing Is Safe" or "The Show"

totally unnecessary bewbz of exploitation (DJP), Friday, 24 January 2020 17:23 (four years ago) link

La Mala Ordina imo

or hell, all three, Blood Of The Fang might pick up more overall points idk

opden gnash (imago), Friday, 24 January 2020 17:26 (four years ago) link

I would have put every song on the album on the nomination list except maybe "La Mala Ordina" and "All In Your Head"

sleeper track is "He Dead"

totally unnecessary bewbz of exploitation (DJP), Friday, 24 January 2020 17:28 (four years ago) link

I mean if any track had been the sole nomination I'd have voted for it

opden gnash (imago), Friday, 24 January 2020 17:29 (four years ago) link

well yeah

totally unnecessary bewbz of exploitation (DJP), Friday, 24 January 2020 17:32 (four years ago) link

to be clear that album is far and away my favorite of 2019 and I am going to spend most of the rollout of the results annoyed that the rest of ILM doesn't agree with me

totally unnecessary bewbz of exploitation (DJP), Friday, 24 January 2020 17:33 (four years ago) link

It's getting a lot of points from our house and has quite a few fans elsewhere. It'll definitely make the 77. Have you heard Splendor & Misery yet btw? That's high on my decade list let alone 2016

getting you lot back in the cricket at least lol breastcrawl

― totally unnecessary bewbz of exploitation (DJP), Friday, January 24, 2020 12:33 PM (two minutes ago)

is there some other way to spend the rollout?

Yeah I've gone back through their catalog and listened to everything once, which is why I said on Twitter:

FYI I think I am prepared to declare @clppng artists of the decade

tbh imago, i know nothing about rugby. nor cricket.

but high hopes for the EOY scrum nonetheless

xps

breastcrawl, Friday, 24 January 2020 17:40 (four years ago) link

Fair shout DJP. I was mostly on board until S&M which was some leagues-above stuff

here's to a fair game with no gouging or high tackling

opden gnash (imago), Friday, 24 January 2020 17:43 (four years ago) link

is there some other way to spend the rollout?

There's what I've done the past few years, which is forget to vote and then spend the entire rollout making fun of the music other people like

totally unnecessary bewbz of exploitation (DJP), Friday, 24 January 2020 17:59 (four years ago) link

a time-honored tradition tbh

The Squalls Of Hate (sleeve), Friday, 24 January 2020 18:03 (four years ago) link

i voted!!!!

american bradass (BradNelson), Friday, 24 January 2020 18:13 (four years ago) link

It's always tougher than I think it'll be, this voting lark. Will get my ballot in tonight, though.

Sorry DJP, but while I like the clipping. stuff I know, I haven't listened to this album so it won't make my ballot ;_;

emil.y, Friday, 24 January 2020 19:03 (four years ago) link

No worries! Go listen to it but don't worry about the ballot
