secret ninja end of the year toplists

[garethom]

Started putting together a little shortlist of Albums and Tunes last night, will finish it when I'm home from work.

Taylor Swift - 1989

There was a tune from this in my top 50, and no joke, depending on the list size of top albums, it'll probably make that.

Gonna check out a load of that stuff today Ultra.

LIES have been smashing it this year. On a similar vibe Dog In The Night records is another label I've been digging.

was thinking about that sd laika album but tbh it was one of those cases when i loved it when it came out then kinda forgot about it

2562 was probably the biggest disappointment for me. i mean it's not a bad album, just that (having completely forgotten about the air jordan ep) i thought it was going to be some nice ravey shit, only to realize it's some nearly monochrome nause techno which doesn't really stand out from pan, opal tapes, hospital prod et al

gave it a try. did absolutely fuck all for me neither

[DiegoSapiens]

He is the best
Also isnt space loops from last year

[wubstep]

The tape is, 12" got pressed this year. ^^

Also, despite running GutterBreakz & the rest, Ekoplekz is very much from the world of industrial & experimental tabletop hardware stuff, he's had a fucking amazing year.
Booked him for £50 on a space-rock gig this time last year.
