Ride A White Poll

[chezghost.livejournal.com]

January's Top 40 Singles poll saw apparently everyone's favourite indie-pop stalwarts Belle & Sebastian clinch the top spot with 17 ticks and 54.8% of the vote, with Jose Gonzales, Mylo ft. Freeform Five and Will Young all languishing in joint second place with 13 ticks each. A traditionally weak month there, but things are starting to hot up a little in February, maybe?

or maybe it IS wrong/pointless to think about/analyse/discern within some genres this way.

as Gareth alluded to on another ILM thread, techno being an immersive thing best experienced in clubs where the hours meld into one stream of what may as well be one single force of sound with no need to decide which bits you like best or whatever - just enjoy it as a complete experience. but outside the club this approach can be contradicted, when it comes to actually buying records. but then people always enthuse about certain mix CDs, even when they don't love every track to the same level, or maybe they don't even like all the tracks featured?

but i've never been able to really do that personally. i just hear (look for?) peaks and troughs and want to set them apart. very anoraky i suppose.
