so the year is coming to an end pretty soon and i thought it'd be a good idea for everyone to make a list (top3, top5, top10 or whatever) of their favorite releases so far in 2002.
here's my top10 (some of them are from late 2001, but i consider them as a part of 2002 since i bought them this year).
1- Bola - Fyuti 2- Boards of Canada - Geogaddi 3- Autechre - Gantz Graf 4- Antipop Consortium - Arrythmia 5- Chris de Luca and Peabird - Deadly Wiz Da Disko 6- Pole - R 7- Coldplay - A Rush Of Blood To The Head 8- The Cinematic Orchestra - Everyday 9- Plaid - P Brane 10- Andrew Pekler - Station To Station
this list will probably change until the end of the year though.
so what's yours?

Not many good releases in 2002 that were not electronic IMO
If there were any good things outside of the electronica range I would have tried to put them in my list. But...... there werent (to me)...... so I didnt
Most good music doesnt have to be new to be good anyway......
And I dont know about the other people around here... but I listen to lots of things outside of the electronic genra.....

i know damn well i listen to a narrow range of music.
the only new stuff i listen to is artists suggested on this board, and the occassional recommendation on amazon.com or whatever. apart from that, i don't listen to the radio, or watch t.v, so that eliminates all other ways to gear aboot music.

i think the underworld album was disapointing, it just sounded like a trumped up beaucoup fish
i also think geogaddi was a major disappointment for me personally. just poor imo.
sigur ros is too new to really say anything about it, but i like what i hear so far.
p-brane by plaid i really liked. i was hoping someone would sample the intro to the 1st track and make a great record out of it but nothing so far.
the bogdan lp was just far to agggressive for me.

i dunno... just the great songs i guess :-) I haven't been a rhcp-fan for a very long time, i guess that has something to do with it. I never really liked them when they were a crazy energetic funkrock-band... (i loved under the bridge but hated give it away, for instance).
Californication was the first cd by them i could appreciate, for all the melodic stuff on there... but i don't care much for songs like i like dirt, get on top & purple stain...
And on by they way the seem to have eliminated that style altogether :-D It's just melodic pop/rock music, often quite laid-back... and just really nice. This is the first album by rhcp where non of the songs annoy me! Maybe Ã'm one of the few who likes this cd so much... to me it sounds like they've focussed entirely on what they are best at, and dropped all the other weak stuff. But i realize that what i call "weak stuff", is prolly the reason other people love this band in the first place ;-)

p-brane are maybe the best 4 songs released this year! I love this ep so much... if it would have been album-length, with more songs of the same high quality, it would have been the best release of 2002 for sure!

yes... i've seen many people agree with you...
I only really like these songs of it:
Around the World, Parallel Universe, Scar Tissue, Otherside, Californication, This Velvet Glove... some of the others are OK i suppose... but nothing that would make my head buzz :-/ The 3 tracks mentioned in my previous post are just plain ugly. (imo)
(but for what it's worth: those 6 songs are truly outstanding! I often listen to the entire album just to hear those six :-) They make me so very happy...
Maybe now you can understand (a little) why i prefer By The Way... it's definitly in the same style as those songs, right?)

p-brane would be a 9/10 in my book. I think diddymousedid (altough absolutely fantastic!) is just slightly less beautiful than the other 3... otherwise i'd have given a 10/10 :-o

not for me really. still v. disappointed. for someone who stupidly believed the media when they said it was another califonication, i'm gutted. but at the same time really pleased. they've moved on. and so should all bands. what's the point of repeating someting you've already done if not for the money? i really can't enjoy listening to it at all. but it makes the last album (to me) all the more special.

good point! I'm sure you would have liked By The Way better if it would have been more like Californication... but at the same time, it would have made californication less special for you... to see what was once beautiful and unique being turned into a simple formula.
I feel the same way... artists should always change and evolve.

well it was your post on that song (diddymousedid) that made me interested in the ep in the first place ;-) (a long time ago). Otherwise i probably would not have bought it in the first place... it was actually a very impulsive purchase! (because i don't have any other plaid)...
but still i found the other 3 songs better than diddymousedid ;-)
gorgeous video on that cd aswell! (eyen)

Cheers earth, I just wondered what you thought. Have you heard 'Too many Djs' dj live? It's really fun, loads of surprises, vitalic with beyonce, beltram with nirvana and Derrick may with dusty springfield. I know the bootleg thing is a bit played out but it's cool live.

I spoke to david from soulwax and he said there was lots that they couldn't put on their album due to copyright crap, but they did it live. they're in england soon, you've got to check them if you can. Seriously it's raw beats with 'popular' stuff.
You can take your girlfriend to it and they'll have a good time!!
