ILM 2013 | End of Year Albums & Tracks Poll | NOMINATIONS THREAD

http://i.imgur.com/Gyoezvw.jpg

The original plan was to commence nominations a week from now, but I got impatient and that means you, poster and/or lurker, get more time to nominate your favorite albums and tracks from the year 2013. We're sticking with the max of 30 nominations since that worked out well last year. You can split that down with middle with 15 albums and 15 tracks, or you can break down that number in any way that satisfies you (all albums, all tracks, or any split that adds up to 30).

Things to keep in mind when you nominate, especially if you don't do it all at once:

Label your ALBUMS and your TRACKS lists. J0rdan, seandalai and I hear a whole bunch of music, but we're not familiar with everything. This helps out a great deal.

Format your nominations in this order:
Artist - Album
Artist - Track
(NEVER Album - Artist or Track - Artist... not only is this an archivist's nightmare, but it's also harder on us when trying to make a proper nominations list.)

So, now nominations are open! They will close at 7pm EST on Sunday, January 5th 2014 (that's midnight for the Britishes and 4pm for our friends on the left coast of the US).

Please ctrl+f the thread or check the spreadsheets linked below before submitting your nominations. We may not catch all the doubles that pop up, but we try.

Track nominations

Also, don't embed youtube videos in this thread. Links will be fine. We've created a (collaborative) Spotify playlist to keep up with all the tracks that are available for streaming on that service.

Danny Brown - Old
Tegan & Sara - Heartthrob
Sky Ferreira - Night Time, My Time

10/30

omg

so excited but not ready at all. time to try whittling down the enormous longlist as usual.

ALBUMS

Matthew Shipp – Piano Sutras
Grupo Niche – Tocando el Cielo con las Manos

TRACKS

Grupo Niche – La Novia
Mohammed Assaf – Ya Hal Arab

Starting with a few things I have no reason to think anyone else will nominate.

Just to clear it up (because it WILL come up), EPs are eligible in the Album category. So are compilations that consist of new or previously released material to create something of note. Compilations that just throw a bunch of singles together like Now That's What I Call Music! #4,829 or whatever aren't eligible. Use your judgement.

Sorry for probably the worst segues ever.

Reissues of an album in its original form and best of/greatest hits albums are also not eligible. If a reissue has a special spin on it, like a live set or studio outtakes or material otherwise never released before, we'll count it. Again, use your judgement.

xp on the Spotify playlist? Sounds cool to me.

Blende ft Kelli-Leigh - Rikki

Only two tracks on the Saâda Bonaire album were previously released iirc, so that's probably eligible. The track you nommed was one of those two though :(

Dear Johnny Fever, how many albums and singles will we each be able to vote for this year?

"Forever" by Haim placed in last year's poll, btw, so you can have one nomination back Eric.

I'm a dumb.

are albums that were released in mid to late december 2012, but were reviewed and mostly heard in early 2013 (e.g., burial's truant/rough sleeper ep) eligible for nomination in this year's poll?

So I've been adding stuff to the Spotify playlist, but if you feel like adding your own nominations to the playlist yourself at about the same time you nominate them here, that would be (really very very) cool. Also, if something is missing, it might be because of regional restrictions (things being streamable in the UK or elsewhere that aren't in the US). It also might just be because it's not on Spotify anywhere, but most of the noms so far seem to be available.

xp that falls under the year of impact rule iirc

what if i end up wanting to vote for the chris brown-less version of sevyn streeter's "it won't stop"? should i nominate that one too or would i just vote for the one w/ chris b/c it's gonna get combined anyway

i had no idea there was a CB-less version, just replace my pick with that

it was the one released as a single first. it got moderate airplay but then they put out a new version w/ chris on it. that one got much more airplay so they made that the version for the video and her ep.

oh and i guess the question would apply to how remixes and original versions will be handled

Why is the albums spreadsheet empty (at least over here it is)? Also, could you add my vote for A$AP Ferg's "Shabba" as replacement for "Bipp" to your tracks list please? Thanks...

J0rdan is doing albums this year and I guess he hasn't started the list.

Scratch the Saâda Bonaire. Didn't know until a second ago that it's a reissue. I thought it sounded pretty authentically "1982" and now I know why.

― Johnny Fever

Is it really a reissue? Far as I knew it was recorded in 1982 but it wasn't officially released until now, 30 years later. Sort of what they did with that Black Devil Disco Club thing, a few rare copies of the album existed but it was distributed rather as demos or bootlegs.

I'm going to wait until the deadline to give my noms because I'm a selfish bastard and I don't want to burn down my bullets early.

Is that an expression? Burn down my bullets? I was just translating literally from Spanish but I don't think it's a thing in English.

yeah though if everyone did that there'd be no noms at all :P

best policy is to burn 20 of them now and then wait. I've gone with 27 because fuck it nobody else was burning any of mine except maybe Matmos and Death Grips

Actually I wouldve nominated the Jute Gyte in a day or two if u hadnt, LJ

:D well (SPOILER) it's a lock for my #1 slot

and it's so good I've also nominated the first 3 tracks which slay slay slayyyyyy slay slay slay slay slay. god. I mean

Discussion upthread was that the album is fine for nomination, as the majority of it wasn't released, but that the particular track nominated was disqualified as it *had* been released at the time. I think.

Didn't notice this had started!

ALBUMS

Annie - The A&R EP
Active Child - Rapor EP

Right, from what I understand, the first two tracks on the album were released as a single in 1982, but the remainder of the album consists of unreleased and/or new(?) material. Hence the album being eligible. xp

It's an EP, I liked it, I nominated it...

tracks

rihanna ft mikky ekko - stay

xp no, i mean, i had no idea she put anything new out. blue roses s/t is like one of my favourite albums from the past 10 years

aha! I had no idea she had previously released anything. Thanks!

^^ why I hang out on ILM

Been listening to this ep on repeat for the last half hour, btw. It's gorgeous.

I'm starting to accumulate a solid list of albums to check out based on these nominations. The one Bilal track I heard is a lot different from what I remember of the last Bilal album I heard (which had some things going for it that I liked) and I'm definitely curious about this one.

think i posted ones of the songs off the laura groves ep on one of those threads that no-one else ever reads. was very bat for lashes but v pretty anyhow

think i posted ones of the songs off the laura groves ep on one of those threads that no-one else ever reads

I definitely meant to do that, but I'm not sure I got round to it

Slow Machete - Evening Dust Choir

according to RYM this record is from 2012

Courtney Barnett - Avant Gardner

apologies if i'm being an ass but this track is called "avant gardener"

http://pitchfork.com/reviews/tracks/15921-courtney-barrett-avant-gardener/

he recorded a followup lamenting the prodigal career of gary gardner, the newest gardner, although ironically not the one who came 'avant' his brother

Thanks for nominating Chuck Johnson I feel bad for forgetting

I can't even keep track of all the Liz Harris & Ben Chasny side projects, getting old

"Helen - Dying All the Time", nominated by the mysterious Karl Malone upthread, is Liz Harris rocking out in a shoegaze style and is fantastic.

Hopefully this doesn't sound like whining, but if you're on spotify and you can add your own track nominations to the playlist linked in the opening post, that would be AWESOME.

ALBUMS

Protomartyr - No Passion All Technique <<<(2012 limited release, rereleased 2013)

4/30

xp We usually treat multiple mixes as a single track, for nominations and for voting...are we doing the same this year?

It's probably best just to give all the Strandbar votes to one entry and then people can discuss which is best if it makes the top 77.

OK cool, that makes sense.

I forget - are new compilations of old material eligible?

If so, please add:

ALBUMS
William Onyeabor - Who is William Onyeabor?
Various Artists - Cosmic Machine

Likewise, is the I Am The Center new age comp eligible? Feel like it's been quite an important record this year.

I almost feel like we need a separate reissue poll, not that I am volunteering

But I don't really know if those are even "reissues." I tend to think of reissues as new releases of old albums.

Just to clear it up (because it WILL come up), EPs are eligible in the Album category. So are compilations that consist of new or previously released material to create something of note. Compilations that just throw a bunch of singles together like Now That's What I Call Music! #4,829 or whatever aren't eligible. Use your judgement.

― Johnny Fever, Sunday, December 8, 2013 1:28 AM (2 days ago) Bookmark Flag Post Permalink

Reissues of an album in its original form and best of/greatest hits albums are also not eligible. If a reissue has a special spin on it, like a live set or studio outtakes or material otherwise never released before, we'll count it. Again, use your judgement.

― Johnny Fever, Sunday, December 8, 2013 1:31 AM (2 days ago) Bookmark Flag Post Permalink

what's the special spin these comps have that makes them eligible? it's all previously released stuff in each case iirc

in that case a lot of it was only on private issue cassettes, if that helps

Not to get too philosophical about it, but when a comp comes out that's been assembled with great care or to achieve some kind of theme or mood, it seems like a new work. Tracks that had never previously been grouped together find new life in new surroundings—or something like that. Again, it's a case by case basis, but as long as no one nominates, like, the 12th Doobie Brothers "greatest hits" album, we're all on the same page.

albums:

RP Boo - Legacy
Rough Kids - The State I'm In
Concrete Cross - Concrete Cross
Black Pus - All My Relations
Lust For Youth - Perfect View
Arabrot - Arabrot
Full Of Hell - Rudiments Of Mutilation
Wolf People - Fain

tracks:

John Grant - Blackbelt
Pissed Jeans - Bathroom Laughter
The Devil - Silent Roar
Funkystepz - Butterfly
Omar Souleyman - Wenu Wenu
Snuff Crew - Work It Out

EIII -- I listened to some of it when they played there but I had just seen them so I didn't go. the space is beautiful -- it's a little backyard garden type place.

xp cool that makes sense. if I had a dog in this fight my counterpoint would be that 'Cosmic Machine' has a global no.1 single on it but hey I enjoyed it too so

xxxxetcp to lex, I left out all the featured guests on the tracks I picked cause I'm lazy like that.

the RP Boo album is really something

Wasn't "Haffi Come Back" from the middle of last year?

tim, you nominated the nadine shah album - what are your thoughts on it generally? i found her an interesting artist to keep an eye on but the album never quite clicked with me

I weirdly love it! It's like a really nice composite of different moments of PJ Harvey's career (though obv not as good as the majority of PJ albums). Her voice is fabulous.

yeah, PJH did spring to mind, though i felt shah got the atmosphere/arrangements spot on but not the songs (unless i needed to give it more of a chance). thought her finest song of 2013 was actually her spot on the maya jane coles album, sort of brought her into focus a bit

Albums

Satelliti - Transister
Lumigraph - Nautically Inclined
Dan Friel - Total Folklore

(23/30)

xxp It probably was but according to Cherine's Facebook page
https://www.facebook.com/notes/cherine-anderson/cherine-scores-first-1-dancehall-hit-with-haffi-come-back/10151515709778346 "Haffi Came Back" was number 1 on Jamaican charts in April this year. Also, browsing Cherine's Facebook page she also apparently went to Middlebury College ?!?

AAARGH i had been really hoping we'd see a repeat of ilm snubbing drake in the nominations!

I'm kind of glad someone nominated Vivir Mi Vida, just because it was such a big song (but not necessarily in ILXor World), but on the other hand I won't be voting for it.

Okay here's a troubling thing...tracks I know I added to the spreadsheet have disappeared. I just had to add back two of crut's A$AP Ferg noms, and I just noticed (based on memory) that one of the Classixx noms is missing. eff you, google.

TRACKS

Navid Izadi - Feelin' Purple
Emiliana Torrini - Speed of Dark

23/30

Still only two nominations from Yeezus on the spreadsheet and one of them is Blood on the Leaves. Someone needs to get on that.

New Slaves would probably be the only one I'd vote for, but I don't care enough to spend a nomination on it?

i might vote for "on sight" if it's nominated

johnny crunch i already nominated hannah hunt so you can have one back

ok cool

TRACKS

Gorgon City - Intentions

20/30

That should really be:

Gorgon City - Intentions ft. Clean Bandit

so lex doesn't have to correct me. (I do agree it's good to list it as it is listed by the artists involved.)

shouldn't that be Gorgon City ft. Clean Bandit - Intentions or am I being too pedantic

That's what one would expect, but on Black Butter Record's own youtube channel (where it appears at BlackButterRecords), it appears with the ft. after the title.

so I should go be a pedant at them, then

brb

Every track with a featured artist will be edited into the format "Artist ft. Artist - Title" anyway, if you do it now it will give me less work to do but it's not a big deal.

as any sub-editor or pedant will tell you what's most important in this case isn't which format is used but consistently using the same format throughout

I'm leaving most of my noms until later, but here's one that falls under "Year of Impact" rules, and is *important*.

TRACKS

Hot Fruit - Falling Off the Grid

What the fuck emily! hahaha that song is insane.

ok I don't know what that is brb

oh wait I remember this! good call

Yeah. So. I've listened to Beyonce's album through twice and I think I want to shift a few of my picks for Bey. Could I do that?

Noms are open until the 5th of January. Give it some time and see what goes up. As usual, there's probably going to be a bonus nomination round in the last couple days to make sure we didn't miss anything vital.

Oops, had a brain fart and momentarily forgot how this worked (esp since reddening listed the album and I actually saw it before I posted, oops).

Disclosure - Confess To Me (Hannah Wants & Chris Lorenzo Remix)

(29/30).

That's a track, obv.

TRACK
Britney Spears - Perfume

Joanna Wang - Galaxy Crisis: The Strangest Midnight Broadcast

I will add:

ALBUMS:
The Focus Group - The Elektrik Karousel
The Fall - Re-Mit

TRACKS
Joanna Wang - Coins
Joanna Wang - Pressure's on Me
Wire - Adore Your Island
Daft Punk - Doin' It Right

What is the Wang record all about? It has an intriguing title.

A lot of Galaxy Crisis sounds like that sort of baroque arpeggiated music from early Nintendo game with (restrained) Broadway vocals, plus bits of '90s lounge revival, Wendy Carlos Moog, and '70s adventure TV theme. It's fun!

Hm, each individual bit of that sounds pretty good, I'm a little scared of what it'll sound like all together. However, interesting enough that I'll go check it out.

Ok I'll have to check that out.

just realized my earlier nomination for Shooting Guns was a dupe so I'm at 14/30 rather than 15/30 before these nominations:

(on Joanna Wang)

Thank you for nominating this! Haven't seen it mentioned anywhere else on ILX, but it's one of my favorites of the year.

Thanks in return for nominating "Coins" on the tracks poll! I don't know why I didn't. It was the first time I heard her (we covered it on the Singles Jukebox in April) and I loved it straight away. I was happy when the album lived up to that first impression. Great video, too.

Track:

ALBUMS

Burial - Rival Dealer EP
Miles - Faint Hearted

TRACKS

Dopplereffekt - Tetrahymena
Terekke - Amaze

15/30. i'm a little undecided about whether the new burial EP -- under the "year of impact" rule -- might be more appropriately included in next year's poll. but the EP has now been widely reviewed and heard in december, it's short enough to be fully digested before the end of 2013, and with the media cycle moving as fast as it does nowadays, it might make sense to include it in this year's poll.

TRACKS

Daughn Gibson - Kissin' on the Blacktop

22/30

xp It's Burial. Whether it makes the top 77 this year or next is irrelevant. It's Burial. It will make it. Not with my help, because Burial is fucking boring imo, but it will make it. So it doesn't matter.

I just noticed Oneohtrix Point Never - America on the tracks list; the name of the track is actually "Americans"

hey is it just me or is the albums spreadsheet blank?

also Ace Hood "Bugatti" has been nominated twice but isn't in the tracks list

reckon that double nominations should cancel each other out; that'd wake people up a bit

That's actually kind of troublesome, because I know "Bugatti" was on the spreadsheet at some point because I had to tell some dude it had already been nominated. Things are disappearing. Before voting, I'll scan the thread a final time and redo the spreadsheet with everything.

Finish my noms with another fantastic name for Imago to havago at!

nah that's too oblique a name for me to h8 :P

wth is 'Rittz' tho

He is a rapper.

btw am sure it's all gd music, just idk, in a bit of a namehatin mood

rap's flashing of wealth signifiers huh, makes sense. shd have called himself $avoy Rittz amirite

(this is when it turns out his birthname is Malcolm Ritts or something)

Lol he is called Jonathan McCollum.

o_O

here's a clue, maybe they don't have these in the UK

http://www.corbinpr.com/assets/images/logo_ritz.gif

oh so it wd be like a UK rapper calling himself Rich T, cool

Well no a biscuit is not q cracker, ur missing the wordplay

Another hint: he appears to be a white rapper.

exactement

just idk, in a bit of a namehatin mood

"BLANCHE BLANCHE BLANCHE" is already taken. What can other performers call themselves that could possible be as snappy?

haha everyone otm, i'm a go

that tirzah song has been nominated already. which is good b/c that means at least 3 of us are going to vote for it, right?

actually, my mistake, the track was nominated as opposed to the EP.

Haha i nominated stuff I am def not gonna vote for but that I thought should be considered

definitely voting tirzah and q highly as well. she's had the good fortune to fall into the unstoppable micachu continuum

I didn't realize there was a Maya Jane Coles album this year, and just one listen in I realize I'm going to have to clear room on my ballot for it. YAY!/DAMMIT!

i was gonna nominate that shit but someone beat me to it, it's been living in my car's cd player for a few days.

ALBUM

Torres - Torres

16/30

How did I forget that Torres album when it is so good? Thank you

I kinda wanna nominate RP Boo's "There U'Go Boi" not bcz it is like one of my favorite songs necessarily but bcz it is so unrelentingly OTT and overwhelming that it's kind of impressive and I feel like that should count for something, it's like "Ventolin" in that sort of "wtf how am I expected to make it through this whole song" kind of way

Idk does anyone second this?

It's also the sort of zany music they'd play on a kids show when they're doing something time lapsy like kids putting together a puzzle or building a fort and they speed up the footage rly fast

ALBUM:

iamamiwhoami - Bounty

Steve, I ended a mix with that!

wtf how cd u have had 2nd thoughts abt this stevie this is amazing

haha isn't it? but like idk is it like actually "good"? also does anything nom'd this late ever actually wind up placing?

these noms always feel like 2 or 3 days of establishing the winners followed by weeks of "well hey guys here are things that I like TOO!!"

yeah of course it's good. anything that has such a profound effect on my willingness to grin is good. also who knows, it could still be done. get canvassing

LIKE YOU CANVASSED FRED PHELPS

yeah that song makes me smile so big

HEAR THAT EVERYONE HOW THERE IS ALL THIS BUZZ ABT THIS PROFOUNDLY AFFECTING SONG? BETTER GO CHECK IT OUT
