Hats off to the pollrunners, great work!

Never heard #1 and I dig it. Had heard the Beach House and Simmy before and love them. That's pretty much only ones I'd ever go out of my way to hear again.

Good #1 but probably the list I've participated in with the least amount of stuff in my zone.

And now a song that should have been top 10 or even a good deal betterhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p8HoEvDh70Y
I'll just post this one. My ballot was full of afro-pop. Askamaya, Bana, Gbona and Club Controller could have had decent chances.

Discovering Koffee's four 2018 singles has been one of the great ancillary effects of the poll rundown for me.
― Tim F, Thursday, 31 January 2019 23:25 (five years ago) link
Hahahahahahahaha called it.
Seriously though I expected Peggy to come in at like #13 or thereabouts but I love it when a song just quietly creeps up on people and this was THE ubiquitous jam of 2018 without ever really announcing itself as such. But I probably heard it in the wild more than any other song and it doesn't sound like anything else.
― Matt DC, Thursday, 31 January 2019 23:26 (five years ago) link
yeah just listening to the radio i heard it as often on radio 1 as i did on nts

JF: I like Empress Of! I've seen her live! I think of her as more of an indie artist than an alt-pop one though. If you meant I could've crossed her over to spanish language, sure.
vertical lines: I think of 1975 as "rock" though i'm not entirely sure what their fans want to call them or if it matters.
― Fuck the NRA (ulysses), Friday, 1 February 2019 00:25 (five years ago) link
I was just going by the song itself. There's nothing rock and/or indie about it. Alt-pop for sure. It's been a good long time since she lived in shambhala land.
― Johnny Fever, Friday, 1 February 2019 00:27 (five years ago) link
I guess i think that empress of track is more likely to show up on an indie rock radio show than on a pop playlist. it's slightly mopey. like maybe it's more r&B than it is pop OR indie?
― Fuck the NRA (ulysses), Friday, 1 February 2019 00:30 (five years ago) link
It doesn't really matter, I suppose. Except to the 80,000 people who are looking at the thread from parts unknown lol

see, if i had migrated to reddit instead of ILX i would almost surely be getting paid for this by nowonly 1000 people read the poll but they all started their own playlists

Last month I realized I hadn't heard much bobbins in 2018, so I listened to the Resident Advisor top 50. My favorite discoveries from that list were "Neutron Dance," "Keflavik," and “Hold Me (T4T Embrace Mix)." Didn't end up voting for any of them in this poll, but I'm pleased to see that my taste still aligns with ILM's.

Having de-lurked after 5+ years to nom and vote this year (though not solely, I think I said something on the Nintendo Switch thread too), inevitably I've had a horribly busy week and only just caught up with results, let alone listening. Pleased that Ella Mai got as high as it did and the Eris/Octo tracks both placed - just been listening to that while staggering home in the snow and the curdled rave aesthetic lends itself to that very nicely. The Eris is a sort of ultra-limpid "Papua New Guinea" and thus nifty.
