Also, out of the Detroit/313 axis are dozens more, like Axis, M-Planet, Transmat, Metroplex, UR, Ersatz Audio and the mighty Red Planet (just the hits, man). And we *should not* forget the current effect of Schematic, Skam, Fatcat, DIN, Mille Plateaux, Worm Interface etc. Man, talk about stark contrast between these labels and the ones preceding. Fact: Ischemic Folks is (cut) That's pretty sad. Can I vote that for future IDM polls we assemble some sort of panel of people who bought 90% of the important albums of the year? Not that I qualify, but it seems it'd be more accurate that way. People like Lance, Duke, etc. are more in the position to vote for what was best when they heard all the contenders. I mean, film awards, Nobel Prizes, etc. are all determined by a commitee, not a mass vote.
