BOCfan Posted December 22, 2011 Share Posted December 22, 2011 I haven't been able to follow music this year in the way that I have in previous years (just time commitments), but that's a resolution for the next year; keep up with music. Anyways, this is my list from what comes to mind and it includes a couple of EP's I really enjoyed. In no particular order: Toro Y Moi - Freaking Out EP Neon Indian - Era Extrana Tycho - Dive Lone - Echolocations EP M83 - Hurry Up, We're Dreaming Bibio - Mind Bokeh Mint Julep - Save Your Season Glider - The Sight Below My favourite album out of that list is definitely Neon Indian's effort - nothing else I've heard all year came close to it, and there's not a single song on the album that I dislike.

Guest goodwillsidis Posted December 25, 2011 Share Posted December 25, 2011 I know this is gauche but id like to personally invite everybody which was kinda semi-repulsed by Glass Swords to filestube Cex's TINY CREATURE I feel like it sorta represents an alternate dimension continuation of the Warp aesthetic that recoils from the corny upbeat ultraritenow teenybopper vibe & tries to do a more post-imperialist take on idm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sup Posted December 28, 2011 Share Posted December 28, 2011 the ALL TIME BEST album of 2011 is DEFINATELY Música para MAXIMUM MISCHIEF by Viaje Sónico cuz its just so good psych out tunes PLUS expecially important now MAXIMUM MISCHIEF was BANNED (WTF) and this is like the #1 protest album suddenly of 2011 to making it the DOUBLE WAMMY of BEST MUSIC and SOCIALLY IMPORTANT MUSIC\ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flim Posted December 30, 2011 Share Posted December 30, 2011 gang gang dances 'eye contact' was pretty amazing. particularly great track- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rjJ8IPDQk6Q the live stuff im hearing is even better than the album tho. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A_A6A4hrKIc I absolutely love GGD and Eye Contact was great, but I was so disappointed in the fact that the majority of the album was old. Pretty much all of it has been floating around and performed since at least 2008. I was hoping for totally new music, but instead got a refined version of something that I already had in an old podcast from years ago. Mindkilla was the best track, which was disappointing because it was the single and I'd banged that track so many times that it was old by the time the record was actually released. So, here's my list: Best Albums of 2011 1. Shabazz Palaces - Black Up 2. SBTRKT - SBTRKT 3. Gang Gang Dance - Eye Contact 4. Cold Cave - Cherish the Light Years 5. PJ Harvey - Let England Shake 6. tUnE-yArDs - w h o k i l l 7. Radiohead - The King of Limbs 8. Modeselektor - Monkeytown 9. St. Vincent - Strange Mercy 10. Raekwon - Shaolin Vs. Wu-Tang 11. James Blake - James Blake 12. The Joy Formidable - The Big Roar 13. Colin Stetson - New History Warfare Volume 2: Judges 14. The Roots - Undun 15. Beastie Boys - Hot Sauce Committee, Part 2 16. Wild Flag - Wild Flag 17. TV on the Radio - Nine Types of Light 18. Little Dragon - Ritual Union 19. Girl in a Coma - Exits & All The Rest 20. Buraka Som Sistema - Komba 21. Bjork - Biophilia 22. Jay-Z + Kanye West - Watch the Throne 23. Favourite Sons - The Great Deal of Love 24. Daedelus - Bespoke 25. Samiyam - Sam Baker's Album 26. Talkdemonic - Ruins 27. The Kills - Blood Pressures 28. Battles - Gloss Drop 29. EMA - Past Life Martyred Saints 30. Cut Copy - Zonoscope Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
