sorry EP I'll put it here: http://forum.watmm.com/topic/76627-watmms-2012-epsingle-of-the-year-nominations/

Recomposed by Max Richter: Vivaldi

i'll second Para One - Passion

also no mention of Com Truise - In Decay...? know it's old stuff but still had some gold moments

 

got well into the Sauroid label this year and they released a cracking album Fiero ‎– L'Homme Bionique

Helios - Remixed is a good late addition

also had a lot of love for Akira Kiteshi - Industrial Avenue - though some parts were verging on brostep

Honorable mention to Lindstrom - Six Cups of Rebel - if only for the track De Javu

and Point B - The Veld has to be one of my favourite albums to drive to

on reflection my love for a few tracks on Orbital - Wonky has really grown over the year so I'd chuck that on the list too

Album of the year:

 

Lone - Galaxy Garden

 

Honorable mentions:

 

Plug - Back on time

Squarepusher - Ufabulum

Mouse on Mars - Paratrophics

Legowelt - The Paranormal Soul

Kettel & Secede - When Can

Grizzly Bear - Shields

Frank Ocean - Channel ORANGE

Four Tet - Pink

Dean Blunt and Inga Copeland - Black is Beautiful

Clark - Iradelphic

Beach House - Bloom

Ariel Pink's Haunted Graffiti - Mature Themes

Animal Collective - Centipede Hz

Photodementia - Fig. 3 (Altough it's a reissue I think)

 

 

Still haven't listened to The Caretaker's one...

Hello everyone, I'm new here and I hope I will have a pleasant stay! :) But first, I would like to hand in my noms for AOTY!

 

Leonard Cohen - Old Ideas

Jack White - Blunderbuss

Kendrick Lamar - good kid, m.A.A.d. city

Tame Impala - Lonerism

Andrew Bird - Break It Yourself

Art Garfunkel - The Singer

 

Thanks everyone!

Drokk - Music inspired by Mega-City One

Drokk - I had absolutely forgotten about that one. Gonna give it a listen now. Cheers.

Vladislav Delay - Kuopio

Taylor Deupree - Faint

01 - Animal Collective - Centipede Hz

02 - Venetian Snares - Fool the Detector

03 - The xx - Coexist

04 - Raime - Quarter turns over a living line

05 - Venetian Snares - Affectionate

06 - Black Dice - Mr. Impossible

07 - Death Grips - The Money Store

08 - Last Step - Sleep

09 - Goat - World Music

Animal Collective - Centipede Hz and Venetian Snares - Fool the Detector eclipse everything else released this year, people have listened to them and know this right?

 

I only put the other 7 in my list to fill it up, they might as well not exist for I care, whereas the other two act as replenishment or else will slowly waste away.

Well Aaron, both Affectionate and Fool the Detector are 4 tracks long - they belong in the EP/Single of the year thread.

Seriously though, the Hotline Miami soundtrack is the best thing I've listened to this year. It's also the best game I've played this year.

 

That and fool the detector. I didn't really get Iradelphic.

Should I count in stuff like Aleksi Perälä - Mental Union (2xCD) and Jodey Kendrick - Plus Ten (2xCD) because of the bonus stuff, even though the albums are old?

Aren't we suppose to say only one album?

I thought more people would nominate Kuopio, you should give it a chance even if you didn't like his other stuff.

To me it's much better that what I heard of him before and it's easily the best thing released this year.
