This is from 2014, but I only discovered it last week:

dis

I know it's pop and all that shit, but motherfucker-- the
production on all her tracks is amazing. Plus, I'm really
impressed that she wrote the songs and completed production
with some dude (yah yah, plus billion engineers and all
that).

Her music reminds me of the golden era of music where
musical talent and songwriting ability was very common
amongst musical talents.

Electronic music has FINALLY started getting much better the
past ~5 years after many years of garbage and bullshit. So
I'm nominating this track- or Meghan Trainor's first album
in general (which is the first pop album I've felt like
buying in ages)- because if straight up pop can get good,
this raises aesthetic sense amongst the masses, and these
vibez bleed into the underground. Good pop music can
basically help save the world (instead of spreading bad
vibez and making children whores and drug addicts).

So with her album, I feel a very positive turning point for
music in general. I wouldn't be surprised if all genres are
starting to unearth that old school good feelin' golden
sparkle.

There are quite a few notable electronic tracks that've been
sweet this year-- internet musicz is at an all-time high
(basically making the first real wave from mp3.com from 15
years ago look like amateur hour). But I can't pinpoint
anything... Bendish has been killing it in recent times...
THIS 13 minute track of his from late last year is
excellent.

yeah, I noticed Megan too - there's sth sexy in her sound,
very dynamic. maybe I'll check the whole album.

Another thing about her music... It really brings happy
tears to my eyes and heart, because she's been
writing/playing music since early-teen years, self-released
stuff online before getting signed, etc. When I listen to
her music, I hear that joy of someone who really just loves
music.

Her debut album is like the realization of the dreams of the
tens of thousands of IDM basement dudes who've been making
music for ages, never got signed, but keep on composing with
naive hope.

And as she doesn't exactly fix the pop image of a skinny
sexed up hoebag, it feels great knowing that someone who
deserved to get signed on talent, got signed. In that
sense, I feel it gives hope to all musicians who can never
ever let go of their teenage dream of getting signed.

eh, I think soundcloud was pretty vibrant a couple years
ago, now itÅ› gotten quite spammy. i think the weblabelz,
bandcamp, and digital distribution are pretty good these
days.

also, I can't get behind that megan trainor song; obesity is
a bad thing

Bwoy De Bhajan is doing good. His 2015 track Azavon The Chameleon
is a good hint for an upcoming followup to his debut
2032. Hasn't really been blown away by anything
else than his work for 2015, when it comes to electronic
music.

the only The Prodigy track from new album worthy enough of
mentioning on this glorious board

and the only new album track I come back to - rest of those
tracks sound like b-sides from the previous album. RIP The
Prodigy.

i can't stand the sleaford mods but i thought their track
was the best. in fact the more i listen to it [the album]
the better it gets. so much better than the forced last
album.

new Leftfield....I thought I was gonna hate it - but it's
not bad, in fact I listened to the album ~3 times in a row.
I can definitely highlight track 1: nothing new really but I like it and a few
others including "dark matters"
