THREAD TO POST YOUR JDFF YEAR END LISTS IN

Ҩ wrote:Duff and Undo, my list would be some odd combination of those two. Except shittier. Good shit on both of those!

Don't suppose by some Yuletide miracle anyone has the complete 2007 SOMB Top 100 Singles wrapped up all tidy in a zip file lying around?

My eoy somb folders run from 2008 to 2011.

Yeah, figured you were my best shot.

10. Wild Beasts - Present Tense
09. Run the Jewels - Run the Jewels 2
08. East India Youth - Total Strife Forever
07. Sun Kil Moon - Benji
06. Todd Terje - It's Album Time
05. Aphex Twin - Syro
04. Moodymann - Moodymann
03. Actress - Ghettoville
02. Caribou - Our Love
01. Dean Blunt - Black Metal

I realise I'm probably too late.

Thanks for the Moodymann rec, wasn't familiar with him before.

Haha, the deadline was like two and a half weeks ago.

Smoke weed every day.

Seriously. This thing just gets better and better and better with every listen. Gonna familiarize myself with some more of his work.

These lists are rolling out now in case any of you still visit that graveyard. Mostly just youtube commenters, me, Duff and 2 or 3 JDFF people throwing out dumb comments so far.

In the grand tradition of SOMB rollouts I'm engaged in a pointless argument about sample size.

How many people voted?

waveswiffin on the JDFF wrote:15 lists - down from 24 in 2013 and 51 in 2012. Still a better turnout than expected considering nobody has posted here for six months or more.

Admire the effort pulling youtube comments in for each song.  

Might as well toss this out there

That's all I can recall from the year. Pretty good music!

Edit: I'd add D'angelo too if thats being considered a '15 release.

And I never got around to hearing the new Deafheaven until now but so far it seems pretty good too. I love Sunbather so didn't really want to listen to this and be let down but its a good record. I'd prob just tack it on the end of my unordered list.

Haven't heard Late Nights yet.

1 Nicki Minaj | The Pinkprint
2 Torres | Sprinter
3 Rae Sremmurd | SremmLife
4 Donnie Trumpet & The Social Experiment | Surf
5 Beach House | Depression Cherry
6 Harshest Realm | Shredfest 2015

8 Carly Rae Jepsen | Emotion
9 Drake & Future | What a Time to Be Alive
10 Grimes | Art Angels
11 Miguel | Wild Heart
12 Laura Marling | Short Movie

Pretty sure there's no point doing a SOMB countdown this year, oh well.

I've just heard Dawn Richard and I can't believe how great it is.
