H.L. Mencken might have termed Mr. Lif’s latest batch of bitter conspiracism as such: “He ascribes all his failure to get on in the world, all of his congenital incapacity and damfoolishness, to the machinations of werewolves assembled in Wall Street, or some other such den of infamy.”

so I was slow and didnt get my votes in, but I would have voted for 7-10 and added Fanfarlo and The Knux. Also Dan Auerbach was rad in person, so I would probably have given him a few extra points for that, even though this was about albums. I dont really get the Mayer Hawthorne thing, its not like motown revival is a new thing (Jamie Lidell, Ryan Shaw and Raphael Saadiq)

remixes tend to bore me because I think most are extremely bland and/or unoriginal, but everything here felt fresh from my first listen to my last. let me know what you think about it.

nice call. this sounds fantastic. i’ve been listening to a fair bit of kanye recently, and it will be great to get a different feel from his songs.

I’m leaving AC out of this. Ok wait, I can’t. Beach Boys and AC can never be used in the same sentence ever again. If I were mayor, that would be the rule 
Loving that The Rural Alberta Advantage found it’s way up here. I discovered that record WAY late in the year but it’s taken only days of listening to agree with it’s spot in the top 10.
