now that the poll is over, i'd like to publicly view my opinions on
categories etc:
yes, out with the 'genre' categories, they're a bitch to define.
instead i'd like a 'non-IDM' category, please.
and another category i find missing is remix-album of the year. the
remix-album: not quite an artist album, not quite a compilation, but
partaking the nature of both. this year i'd vote for
ryuichi sakamoto: prayer / salvation (ninja tune) {brilliant!}
but there were others:
pizzicato five: happy end of you {brilliant in spots}
telex: i don't like music {a bit cheeky but very good}
skinny puppy: remix dystemper {this one was pretty blah, though}
...
this would be the next year, then...
<IDM Album of the Year> (Three equal votes for '99 releases)
<non-IDM album of the year> (Three equal votes for '99 releases)
<IDM Single/EP of the Year> (Three equal votes for '99 releases)
<Remix-album of the year> (Vote for remix-album released in '99)
<Compilation of the Year> (Vote for compilation released in '99)
<IDM Label of the Year> (For consistent quality in '99)
<IDM Artist of the Year> (For consistent quality in '99)
or not, you think?
