1990s electronic music poll (tracks and albums): nomination thread – deadline on September 15th, at 12 PM (GMT)

Okay, since the resolution for the 00s electronic dance music poll has been postponed a bit, I thought I could already started a nomination thread for the 1990s poll. I decided it should include both tracks and albums, because why not? I won't start the actual poll thread until after the 00s poll's results have been posted, so you have at least until then to nominate. Below are the rules for the nominations:

1) You can nominate up to 40 tracks and 20 albums, no more.

2) The track/album must have been originally released between 1990 and 1999. I know some of you wanted late 80s to be in the poll too, but I had no idea what should be the earliest year to be included (1988? 1987? 1986?), so I thought it'd be clearer to focus just on the 90s. Someone else can do a 80s dance music poll later on.

3) This poll is focused on the sort of electronic music that developed from 1980s house, techno, and electro. If you want to nominate less dancey stuff like ambient or downtempo, I'm fine with it too, since there was so much overlap between those genres and more danceable electronic music. However, genres that have a different lineage, such as rap, synth pop, new age, avant-garde classical music, etc should not be included, even if they had a high electronic quotient. I'm not gonna disqualify any nominations though, so it's up to you judge whether a particular track or album fits here. Ultimately, the voters will choose that.

4) Stuff with vocals and/or traditional instruments is okay as long as the track/album has more electronics than those. So, for example, most Eurodance tracks are fine, but music that's done mostly with traditional instruments, like Red Snapper or the first disc of 4 Hero's Two Pages, shouldn't be nominated.

5) I'll tell you the deadline for the nominations once I know when the 00s poll is over.

So go on, start nominating!

The deadline for the nominations will be on September 15th (Saturday), at 12 PM GMT.

I'm sure all my favorites will be here at some point but Underworld - dubnobasswithmyheadman is the album that absolutely needs to be on there

frogbs, Thursday, 28 June 2012 13:25 (twelve years ago) link

Oh yeah, please add your nominations in this format:

TRACKS:

Artist name - Track name:

ALBUMS:

Artist name - Album name

And don't bury them in the middle of your other comments, make it clear what part of your post is the nomination list.

Tuomas, Thursday, 28 June 2012 13:29 (twelve years ago) link

what about dj mixes? either consider them as album or create a new category.

dan138zig (Durrr Durrr Durrrrrr), Thursday, 28 June 2012 16:46 (twelve years ago) link

DJ mixes count as albums, sure.

Tuomas, Thursday, 28 June 2012 17:00 (twelve years ago) link

Do you prefer that we list all of our nominations at once, in one comment? (As opposed to me posting, say, 10 now and 50 next week, for example.)

I don't actually like this any more, but liked it so much in 95/96 that it seems wrong not to nominate it.

azaera, Thursday, 28 June 2012 17:43 (twelve years ago) link

As much as people like Autechre around here (huge fan myself), I wonder if anything will make it to the Top 50. There is an embarrassment of riches in their 90s output.

I snuck EP7 on my list. I don't care what the names says, it's a 70-min Autechre album; and a brilliant one at that.

azaera, Thursday, 28 June 2012 17:48 (twelve years ago) link

I didn't have a separate category for EPs, but everyone's free to nominate them in the album category.

Tuomas, Thursday, 28 June 2012 17:50 (twelve years ago) link

Hmph. At least the last poll included 'dance' in the title. You can't just appropriate the term 'electronic music', you know.

emil.y, Thursday, 28 June 2012 18:08 (twelve years ago) link

Well, I tried to define the sort of electronic music we're polling here in the initial post. I didn't want to talk about "electronic dance music" because, A) "electronic music" is a more commonly used umbrella term for these genres (I know there are other types of electronic music too, but the term has been used like this at least since the 90s, it's not my appropriation), and B) I didn't want to get into endless arguments on which tunes are dancey and which are not. Like I said, you're free to nominate whatever you want if you feel it comes from the techno/house/electro lineage, it doesn't have to be club music. Personally, I'm most likely gonna nominate a few ambient/ambient house/chill-out albums.

Tuomas, Thursday, 28 June 2012 19:42 (twelve years ago) link

I'm going to go out on a limb and think carefully carefully about each of my nominations (i.e. nominating things I'd actually vote for), so until I do that let me say thanks for getting this organized!

EDB, Friday, 29 June 2012 00:18 (twelve years ago) link

which is not directed at any noms here, but at the sort of blatant over-nominating of the 00s thread (of which I do not exculpate myself) which kind of eliminates the whole point of a nomination system. Just getting that out there.

EDB, Friday, 29 June 2012 00:20 (twelve years ago) link

one album nomination:

Ryoji Ikeda - +/-

mississippi joan hart (crüt), Friday, 29 June 2012 00:46 (twelve years ago) link

This is totally my era; I'll check back in a few days with my noms, gonna take a bit of thinking about.

My conclusion from some brief pre-sleep research is that my nominations will be exclusively 91-94 hardcore/jungle.

Is trip hop allowed?

Moka, Friday, 29 June 2012 07:20 (twelve years ago) link

Trip-hop is a borderline case... I think it's okay if it's sample-based or otherwise electronic, but tracks where people play "real" instruments and tracks that are more hip-hop (i.e. are centered around rapping) should be excluded. So the tracks on the first Lamb album or Massive Attack's "Unfinished Sympathy" are okay, but "Karmacoma" isn't because it's really hip hop.

Tuomas, Friday, 29 June 2012 09:01 (twelve years ago) link

Oh shit, I just realized I totally forgot to nominate Genaside II's "Narra Mine". Hopefully Chap or some other UK hardcore head will nom it.

Tuomas, Friday, 29 June 2012 09:04 (twelve years ago) link

I'm hoping that the extra time will add a little bit more critical weight to this poll.

That said I don't know what to vote for, my musical tastes in the 90s were atrocious.

I considered all of those ambient records you've nominated, Gavin, but didn't think they fit within the parameters Tuomas set up for this poll. I didn't want to be the one responsible for opening that can of worms (after the endless debate in the 00s poll). But it really is hard to leave the ambient strain of electronic music out of a discussion of the best work of the 90s, isn't it?

azaera, Monday, 2 July 2012 19:31 (twelve years ago) link

If we're going down that route, someone might as well nominate 76:14, no?

Yeah I did pause for thought with some of them but I taking into account Tuomas' third point in the initial post I might as well go for it - the voting should bear out whether or not people consider the ambient stuff part of electronic music. I know my tracks nominations will be geared much more towards dancefloor-friendly genres though.

Gavin, Leeds, Monday, 2 July 2012 19:40 (twelve years ago) link

Wait, why wouldn't 76:14 count here? I guess there's a lot of gray area; SAWII is definitely something else, but say U.F. Orb really isn't too much different from its contemporaries.

Fatboy Slim - Better Living Through Chemistry [not rly but it's miles better than Long Way Baby]
Bentley Rhythm Ace - s/t

Fatboy Slim - Beat Up The NME

I'm not a fan of Long Way Baby, wasn't at the time, can only speculate on what I'd think of it now, but felt like it had to be nominated. Always was more into Chems, glad you've got that mix in it. Back in the day, I really wanted one of their Socialism t-shirts!

MikoMcha, Friday, 14 September 2012 13:28 (twelve years ago) link

Albums:5/40
Bomb The Bass - Clear
Orbital - Middle of Nowhere

Ultramarine - United Kingdoms

A couple which I'm not sure would count:
Air - Moon Safari
Saint Etienne - So Tough

fun loving and xtremely tolrant (Billy Dods), Friday, 14 September 2012 13:29 (twelve years ago) link

last two probably have too many real instruments and vocals for Tuomas' rules

Surely Moon Safari is allowed?

MikoMcha, Friday, 14 September 2012 14:04 (twelve years ago) link

Funnily enough I though that the St Et. album would be the more electronic friendly of the two.

Billy Dods, United Kingdoms has already been nominated, so you have one extra nom.

Also, what the heck is "Pet Shop Boys - Relentless"? I've never heard of it.
