TMobotron
12.21.13 | damn I still haven't checked out the new Phaeleh, need to do so. |
Brostep
12.21.13 | it's pretty good, like Fallen Light better but if Tides had come first I'd have probably liked it more |
Greem

Judio!
12.21.13 | Damn, 2013 was a very Brostep year. |
Deviant.
12.22.13 | 42 was the biggest pile of ass I've heard this year. Complete turnaround from Vol. 1. Friction is running that label into the ground |
theacademy
12.22.13 | never got 53 but i jammed that one song way too many times
its horribloe |
Brostep
12.22.13 | Dev if I'm not mistaken you rec'd it to someone a few months ago, what changed? Certaintly not as good
as vol. 1 but the Joe Ford tune is a stinker
And yeah Acad that's my second favorite trash release of the year (fave being Diplo's Revolution) |
Brostep
12.22.13 | Also fuck I forgot Akkord, that'd be top 15 for sure |

12.22.13 | neer neer neer neer neer neer, neer neer neer neer "CINNAMON something something something" |
someguest
12.22.13 | I agree with your number one selection. What people don't see with that album is he's critiquing everything about our modern culture, especially in America. They look at the surface of the lyrics and think he's just full of himself. Let's look at "I Am A God" for example. Isn't this the mentality every popular, successful musician (and let's even take it a more honest step forward: rappers) gets with time? They're rich, people like them, and it seems as if they can do whatever they want. What is to stop them? They're a god in the bubble they've created for themselves.
Good pick. |
TMobotron
12.22.13 | Yeezus is far from my #1 but I dig it so I have no complaints. I love 20/20 though.
Brostep are you into The Story So Far at all? I sort of grouped them with The Wonder Years for big pop-punk albums of the year, though you might dig if you hadn't heard it yet. |
Eloriaz
12.22.13 | I guess I should get my hands on #5 :-)

12.22.13 | "They're rich, people like them, and it seems as if they can do whatever they want. What is to stop them? They're a god in the bubble they've created for themselves."
Yes, which leaves the rest of us wondering when rich people got so egotistical. |
Calc
12.22.13 | since forever? what a dumb question. |
StrangerofSorts
12.22.13 | 2 and 1 why?! D: |
ShitsofRain
12.22.13 | some really good albums are missing |
Brostep
12.22.13 | TMobo I've heard really good things about them but tbh my interest in pop punk is fading so I'm not really sure if/when I'll check them out. May do it soon though |
Gwyn.
12.22.13 | "Yes, which leaves the rest of us wondering when rich people got so egotistical."
since always |
clercqie
12.23.13 | Some of these picks are so good, and others are horrible haha. The list certainly has personality. |
ShitsofRain
12.23.13 | needs skrillex |
Pheromone
12.23.13 | 1 is 1 |
ShitsofRain
12.23.13 | which makes this list a lot worse |
PunchforPunch
12.23.13 | i really liked 60 |
ShitsofRain
12.23.13 | i really like 20 |
Brostep
12.24.13 | Was considering putting Leaving as #1 but meh
And relistening to WOTW 2, I really fail to see how it's "ass." Sure, it's not as limit-pushing and subtle as the first, but after all that's happened in the DnB world as of late is it really a bad thing to take a step back and let Shogun do what they do best? (Let Rockwell release a drum-heavy banger, let Friction mess around, put out some quality Spectrasoul tunes, and release some smashers from other guys, namely Ford and Technimatic) |
luci
12.24.13 | glad to see someone else put alunageorge on their list, such a breezy and replayable pop record |
Deviant.
12.24.13 | "is it really a bad thing to take a step back and let Shogun do what they do best?"
It's because this isn't what they do best, as far as I'm concerned. Listen to vol. 1 and then 2, and watch as the label slowly morphs into the next RAM |
clercqie
12.24.13 | ^ pretty much sums it up. |
Brostep
12.24.13 | I listened the shit out of vol. 1 ever since I found it about a year and a half ago and while that's definitely better than this vol. 2 is still absolutely enjoyable. |
Funeralopolis
12.24.13 | 1 is 1 |
Brostep
01.14.14 | def check it out. took me about 2 or 3 listens to really get into it but once I did I was hooked |
Sniff
01.14.14 | Irrelevant list. It contains both Icona Pop and Kanye. |
Brostep
01.14.14 | elitist as fuck comment up in HURR

ShitsofRain

Brostep
01.14.14 | drone logic was pree good but I didn't listen to it enough to decide where it goes so I just left it out |

Sniff
01.14.14 | Good. I retract 50 % percent of what I said. I remember reading that review and thinking to myself that it was accurate. |
Deviant.
01.15.14 | "check rustie for wonky sounds"
Album really has nothing in common with that sound at all |
Brostep

01.15.14 | just wonky electronic hip hop beats for the most part |
Brostep
01.15.14 | I think he's taking issue because "wonky" is a "legit" style of electronic: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wonky_(music) |
