League Of Pop Week 8 Standings

[freakytigger.livejournal.com]

There might be a delay in the LoP week 9 sendouts - I've been too busy to send reminders and I've only just got round to collating the tracks. ALSO I totally forgot to ask for intros for next week's players :( Well, 8 weeks of smooth running isn't bad considering! In the meantime here's the standings after Week 8.

You should get your tracks tonight, BTW - all now in. Still waiting for word from fugitivemotel on the Pop Prem: since he's on holiday in the US if he doesn't nominate something I will pick something suitable myself probably!

...from your vast Sonicflyer collection? ;)

Actually this has reminded me - FM did send me a track one week which he didn't decide to use (not by Sonicflyer!) so if I don't hear anything in the next couple of hours I will field that instead.

Hurray! I am just burning a CD to take to work and listen to while I mark exam papers. Expect deranged commentary, hopefully more lucid than my intro, at some point.

The Cretaceous Koganbot Teen Of Pop Counterrankings

[koganbot]

The Cretaceous Koganbot Teen Of Pop Counterrankings as of April 29, 2007. martinskidmore piles on another point, while braisedbywolves gives strong chase (would be tied for first if only I could convince myself to tolerate guest vocalist Sinead O'Connor). Lex climbs a notch owing to my not honestly remembering if I recalled that Kim was the lick girl. (I.e., "Did she do this originally? Or is this a remix?") inhibitorylinks is not so lucky, as Natalia has been ensconced in my computer for several months now. (To remind you how this works: a track scores 0 points if I knew it already, 1 point if it makes it onto one of my "Listen To These A Lot" playlists, and 3 points if it makes it onto a "Put This On A Mixtape" playlist. Tracks can jump or fall at any time until League play ends. And with everyone having at least three matches to go, there's no one who can't potentially win it all.)

martinskidmore 8 points (Irma Thomas, Hairy Diamond, Ultraviolence, Mahlithini & The Mahotella Queens)
braisedbywolves 6 points (High And Mighty Color, Asian Dub Foundation, Xinlisupreme, Eve)
