ILM's 2024 End of Year Tracks & Albums Poll / NOMINATIONS THREAD

It's that time of year again! Let's get together and criticise celebrate the music we loved most.

Your organising committee is seandalai and moka. Will be great if someone can volunteer to maintain Spotify playlists.

The nominations process is classic and unchanged:

- Nominations are open until midnight PST on Thursday January 2nd.

- Everyone gets a max of 30 nominations, split as you see fit across tracks and albums. You can nominate 15 albums and 15 tracks, or 29 albums and 1 track, or 0 albums and 30 tracks - you get the idea.

- Please make sure it's obvious which nominations are tracks and which are albums.

- Always use the order "Artist - Track"/"Artist - Album", never put the artist second. It's hard enough to filter out duplicates as it is.

- Ctrl+F through the thread before nominating, or check the spreadsheets:

Thanks seandalai!

This season I'm going to be very busy with work and family so I wont be able to keep a nominations playlist updated on spotify. If anyone wants to do one and share it It'd be much appreciated! If it's collaborative I can help add things if they're missing from time to time.

In all honesty, no release this year brought me the joy that this one did. (I don't know if it's eligible, but it should be.)

Cindy Lee - Diamond Jubilee, of course. I wouldn't be surprised if this takes it all

Cindy Lee's Act of Tenderness was great, but this is a big leap forward

it was too low iirc

Her keyboardplayer Molina released a very good record this year, if anyone wants a second chance at voting for the scene.

Ah, no worries. I only heard it this year, not sure I even checked the release date as 2023 before.

Woohoo!

I didn't realize that Shinichi Atobe album came out. The flood of December releases is adding some unexpected twists in the poll process.

that cash cobain song is called “dunk contest”

Actually meant "Dunk," not "Dunk Contest" (which was the single, but I like the album cut better).

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B-kxbihswZQ

The Shinichi Atobe album is great...maybe his best yet. I think if it would have been released earlier in the year it'd be getting more traction.

my bad, i assumed you meant "dunk contest," which was a big hit in ny
