simply because i love ppl's "top record" lists, i will post mine, and
ask for other people to post theirs. this way we can expand our
horizons. try to post small descriptions for info. thanks!
my list so far, in no particular order:
prefuse73 - vocal studies and uprock narratives
-awesome cut up hip-hop vocals provide textural elements in this
fantastic head-nodding cd.
solvent - solvent city
-gorgeous, simple, melodic music, very much bochum welt influenced,
but has his own character. probably my favorite so far.
abfahrt hinwil - programm 2 7"; logatech 10"
-both of these hard-to-find releases are simply amazing. melodic,
with great background elements, these short songs (3-4 minutes,
mostly) are able to sweep you into them, wishing they were many more
times as long.
the silver mt. zion memorial orchestra and tra-la-la band - born into
trouble as the sparks fly upward
- offshoot of the more popular Godspeed You Black Emperor!, silver
mt. zion creates similar music, but it is more reserved. they create
beautiful songs with string instruments and minimal vocals.
i'm sure there are more, but my cd collection is not in front of me,
and i cant recall what came out this year or not. but still, lets see
some lists!
