Ah i'm sorry to hear about the association behind Archie Marry Me, puts a different spin on the end of the list, I appreciate the personal stories that people are putting into these playlists. I'll keep an eye out for those Moody Bear releases, hard times for plenty of new emerging artists out there.
Finally done with Nam's:
Part 1: I thought the first part was superb, I'm familiar with the artists but I thought it was sequenced really well and there was a very cohesive mood and feeling to it. I only really know the one Frusciante album which I think off the top of my head is Shadows Collide with People which I really liked. Cinch was great! I didn't know Stanko but again i flet like everything here in the first section fitted well and really worked as part of your mood piece. Hollywood is just an amazing piece of music.
I think taken on its own terms this was probably my favourite run of music out of the competition so far.
Part 2: This felt like a more cohesive version of GAF's list. I kept in mind the narrative you set out for it and it does work in that context. The effort you have put into its construction is praiseworthy, it is a bit damning with faint praise but I just couldn't get into it as much? I probably put that down to over-familiarity more than anything. Again I thought the sequencing was excellent, there were individual tracks that lost my attention and maybe the run from Sheryl Crow down to Smashmouth. But it was an overall fun experience. A few of the songs I recognised but didn't know the artists such as Tal Bachman.
I guess a list of two halves, I feel like I would have loved more songs added to your first half and a few edited out of the second, but in general I think I would rank the list highly just for its construction and brilliant first part. Hmm going to have to make some hard choices in this group!

I want to make sure that everyone is aware that Tal Bachman is Bachman from BTOs son. Just because it makes me laugh every time i think about it.

Thanks! I'm so glad you liked it. It's funny because that's the exact same section that Axver liked the least, ha.
Your list is up next for me over in Group 3.

Alrighty, a bit late but I'm finally onto LN7's list. I played this while working, so I couldn't quite follow along with your sections as closely as I might've liked. I really appreciated how your lengthier write-up brought home the narrative, though, especially for those passages where I wasn't so much into the music on its own terms. Your use of instrumental tracks to informally delineate the list worked quite well. I felt the moods shifted between each section in ways that suggested the progressions you intended; it was coherent rather than abrupt.
I didn't think EPAA would work as an opener, but the first verse actually makes sense to welcome the listener to the story. I should've been less sceptical about your placement of it here. I found the transition into The Killers too jarring, though; ultimately, more jarring than any other part of the list. Tracks 2-5 sounded pretty much like all the music I tried to avoid in my early twenties.
I dug the next segment. Great track by The Knife. Not sure why I never got around to We Were Promised Jetpacks in the past. I've always had an irrational grudge against Night Terrors of 1927 because one of my favourite live bands in Melbourne was this truly unique theremin-led group called The Night Terrors, but googling them sucks because you keep getting results for "of 1927". I kinda meant to listen to them to find out what they do but never did. Anyway, I enjoyed this, especially for the Tegan and Sara cameo.
I've listened to Wintersleep before and didn't rate them, this did not change my opinion. Sounds like it's written to be a big live tune, though.
I had forgotten all about Gordi! I saw her five years ago opening for Little May and enjoyed her set - she had a very relaxed stage manner that night, I remember her joking about the sort of silly headlines that appeared in the newspaper of her small hometown. But I never kept track of her career. This song is a highlight of your list.
I had to resort to YouTube, ironically, for the Like a Version. I'm flummoxed by this inclusion. People outside Australia are aware of Like a Version covers? And they listen to them? I'm so sick of Like a Version, especially when they end up in the Triple J Hottest 100. If you (generic you, not LN7) think that some live cover is one of the ten best songs of the year, you need help. Anyway, this cover was alright but most original Chvrches songs are much better.
Zola Jesus rules. I saw her do an incredible gig with a string section for Melbourne Music Week 2016 at the Melbourne Recital Centre, the venue with probably the best acoustics I've ever heard. She did "Dangerous Days" in the middle of the set alongside "Go (Blank Sea)" and that pairing was the high point of the night, unforgettable stuff.
I really enjoyed the whole passage from Phoenix to Eno/Hyde (the latter was just superb). The only change I would make is to get rid of the Like a Version. For me, this was easily the best part of the list, a highlight of the whole tournament.
The run to the end didn't enthuse me quite as much. Remember when Animal Collective were huge in indie circles? It feels like they've fallen off the radar. I thought "Summertime Clothes" was one of their few songs that I enjoyed, but I'm afraid to say it's not, I was thinking of "My Girls". On a more positive note, "Gaynalk Bhaya" was really enjoyable. And actually speaking of artists who've fallen off my radar, The Horrors are a great example, not sure why I let them slip from my attention. I'd never heard this particular song and holy shit it's good. It would've been a quality closer, I wasn't looking at the tracklist and thought it might be the final piece. As it was, I'm not a National fan but "I Am Easy to Find" did the final honours well too.
Also, my bad misheard lyric of the list: I had to check the lyrics for Modest Mouse to confirm that "this is what I really call a party now" was not "this is what I really call a potty mouth".

"My Girls" is their only song I actually like. Very overrated band, in my opinion.

Listened to GAF's list. It was indeed a bunch of good songs. The playlist approach is clear and simple, and it sounds great together. I enjoyed it. It worked both as something to listen to while doing some chores around the house, as well as something to listen to while having a couple of drinks on the back patio.

Not a huge Animal Collective fan, but I like select songs. Summertime Clothes is one, as is My Girls. I enjoy For Reverend Green, as well. Probably a few others I'm blanking on off the top of my head. But yeah, the praise they got back in the day was not particularly warranted. They were good at what they did, but what they did mostly sucked, if that makes sense.

Loch Raven from Feels is beautiful. That's probably their best album IMO.

Merriweather Post Pavilion is an amazing album that I still listen to all the time, but I wouldn't listen to anything else by them these days. It's strange how much I prefer that album to the rest of their discography, but it's really special to me.

Aren't you the one who there was like a whole THING about how you didn't like Animal Collective before MPP came out?
Like there was a thread dedicated to your attempts to like their music?

Yes.
I actually kinda like Strawberry Jam now, and select songs from Feels, but Merriweather Post Pavilion and Panda Bear's Person Pitch are way ahead of the rest IMO.

Ugh Panda Bear. I'm sure we've talked about this before, but IMO he is the most overrated artist of the last few decades. How much praise does one guy deserve for sounding vaguely like Brian Wilson.

I AM SO SORRY I took so long getting back to you on this. I've left the tab open all this time and I just keep getting pulled away to do other things.
I'm so glad you shared all of this! I loved the list to begin with, but wow, I can really see where you're coming from. You made a way better version of my DI IV list, honestly. Not the exact same struggles, but trying to tell your life story through song during college, and love and loss and figuring out who you are.
And I'm so glad to have the added information about the ending! It's not that I didn't like it when I listened to the list, but I didn't understand it. Now I do! And it's much better for it
. Thank you for writing all of this, I really enjoyed reading it and I think it is good to know some of this stuff about you, since we interact so much! Hope you're doing well. Give yourself a break every now and again, hard as that may be.
I had a busy week and never managed to post my thoughts on namkcuR's playlist, which I listed to a while ago.
Even though part 2 had more songs that I liked, part 1 was my favorite by a good deal, as it was super consistent and moody. I wish it was a bit longer, to be honest. The Coldplay opening instrumental threw me off a bit, but I have to admit it worked well in this context. The Ryan Adams song, which I enjoy as I do the album (despite now avoiding his music after all the revelations that surfaced), felt a bit out of place, though I understand you needed a bit of a mood swing there. I have not listened to Valtari (or Sigur Ros, really) in ages, but I loved how the track fit right there.
Part 2 was definitely a nostalgia trip for me. I assume we are about the same age (I'm from 1981). The second fragment (Nirvana through Pixies) was certainly my favorite, and the most consistent. I'm not entirely sure the third one works as well, and Neutral Milk Hotel -> Sheryl Crow -> Weezer was a bit jarring. But undeniably there are a bunch of good songs here that really take me back to my teens/early 20s, and I'm glad for that.
Overall, I think the list would have been more balanced with a slightly shorter Part 2 and longer Part 1. But this was a fun listen regardless.

Bumping this to post my thoughts on the three lists here I hadn't commented on yet, even though I'd listened to them weeks ago. I'm kind of having to hurry through things in order to finish everything and get rankings in on time, so I apologize for the brief nature of these notes.
Starting with gump:
Really enjoyed this. Did a great job conjuring up that NY feeling. Lots of stuff I knew, and a few discoveries as well.
The opening Clifford Brown track is a great jazz number, and sets the tone for the list quite well. Glad to know of it now.
The Patti Smith track was one I hadn't heard before, I liked that one.
I hadn't heard of Eleanor Friedberger, but that track is killer, and was perfectly placed in the list as well.
"New York City Serenade" is a side of Bruce I hadn't really heard/seen before, and I liked it quite a bit.
As for what I already knew - Beasties, Stevie, Velvet Underground, Lou Reed, Ramones, Television - all great selections.
Specifically, can we talk about how fucking good Television's Marquee Moon is? Every time I hear a track from it, I end up bobbing my head along with the guitars. Tremendous album, and "Venus" is one of its best tracks. Also, it went the Eleanor Friedberger track really, really well. That was a genius pairing.
Overall, great songs, great flow. Loved this one.

LN7:
This was well-done, LN7. With a few exceptions, it really had a strong 00s vibe to it all the way through.
I'll comment on a few tracks...
Opening with EPAA takes some balls. It's obviously one of U2's most polarizing tracks, but I am in the camp that loves it. It's gorgeous, captivating, hypnotizing, etc.
I did a double take when Dan Black's "Symphonies" started. I hadn't recognized it at all from the artist or the title, but as soon as it started, I had a 'holy shit' moment. This song was on the soundtrack of an NBA 2K video game - I can't remember if it was 2K10 or 2K11, one of those two - and I just immediately had flashbacks of hearing this song play over and over and over while I was playing. Good memories. I'll always associate the song with that. I dig it.
No idea who the Augustines are, but I really enjoyed this aptly-titled "The Instrumental". The tone of the instruments - organ?, horns?, guitar? - was really warm and smooth and inviting. Washes over you like warm water. Like this a lot.
Had never heard of Twin Shadow, but this song "Beg For The Night" - the second half of it especially - gave me big early Depeche Mode vibes.
"Half Life II" has always been my favorite track on The Suburbs, so I was delighted to see it included.
"Summertime Clothes" is of course familiar to anyone who was paying attention in 2009, but I hadn't heard it in a long time, so thanks for reminding me of it. Great feel-good vibe.
This "Partenaire Particulier" song might end up being my favorite new discovery of this competition. I'd never heard of that, know nothing about them, and don't speak a word of French, but it doesn't matter. Such a strong chorus melody and breezy, inviting, new-wave-ish instrumentation combine to create an earworm that is staying with me.
Brian Eno is a genius and is almost always a joy to listen to, so this was no exception. This was a perfect blend of guitar and his typical atmospherics.
You did a good job of creating a consistent atmosphere, and you made some really great song selections. Good job!

You mentioned that you "actually tried to make some things flow" - that's an understatement. I think this is one of the most cohesive lists in the competition. There's a consistent synth-like sound that flows through all of these tracks. It's a list you can dance to.
Strange Names and Family Of The Year was a good one-two punch to set the tone.
I liked the Craft Spells track - I got a real New Order vibe there.
The Wombats' "Headspace" is a song I'd heard in various places before, but I wouldn't have been able to name either the song or the artist. Glad to know them now.
I haven't gotten around to Tame Impala's new album yet, but I really need to. "Lost In Yesterday" is really good.
I don't know if it was on purpose, but the Post Animal song you had right before Tame Impala sounds a lot like like Lonerism-era Tame Impala(which for me is always a great thing), so having the two of them together worked really well. One of favorite discoveries from this list.
Probably my favorite discovery from this list is BORNS' "Fool". I don't anything about this guy, but I loved this song. My thought when listening was something along the lines of "War On Drugs with more of a pop sensibility". Will check the album out.
Never heard of The Colourist, but "Little Games" is a fun, catchy track.
Also never heard of Deep Sea Diver, but I like her voice a lot. A very intriguing track. Really authentic/stripped-down sounding. Will listen to more of her stuff.
This is the second Twin Shadow song I've heard in the competition. And the second one I've liked. I guess I'll have to listen to that album.
I really liked the Alvvays track too, yet another artist I'll have to explore further. Just a really solid pop-rock track.
Other tracks that caught my attention were Walk The Moon, Swimming With Bears, and Undercover Dream Lovers.
It's a really solid list. A lot of artists I was unfamiliar with, and I don't really listen to synth-driven stuff that much, so it was an interesting change of pace for me. But very good cohesion and flow, and a solid handful of exciting discoveries for me. Well done!
P.S. As an aside, I just wanted to let you know that, you're responsible for one of my very favorite DI discoveries ever. A full decade ago, your list for DI7 had a song called "Afraid Of Nineveh" by Gosling on it. I'd never heard anyone before(or since) say a word about them here(or anywhere else). But I really loved that song, and I still listen to it semi-regularly. Beautiful melody, great lyric.

Thanks! I’m glad you enjoyed it despite synth-driven stuff being outside of your normal realm. It’s not surprising to me that no one else has mentioned Gosling. They started out as a band from my state - originally from Eastern WA and then later Seattle and they were called Loudermilk and put out a fairly heavy record that’s still probably in my top 10 of all time. Then due to record label bullshit they decided to change their name and sound and became Gosling. And then after putting out their debut album, there was more record label bullshit and they decided to call it a day. Fun facts: the lead guitarist/keyboard player went on to be in The Ranconteurs’ live band and is currently in The Shins; the drummer went on to be the drummer in Duff McKagan’s Loaded, Adam Lambert’s live band, and currently drums for AWOLNATION. Neither were featured on the song you mentioned. That was 100% Davey.
Also, the Post Animal to Tame Impala was intentional in a manner of progression since I agree that When I Get Home sounds like the first couple Tame Impala albums.

Glad you enjoyed it. It's strange how some people have preferred Part I and others Part II...all a matter of taste I guess.
I have to say I'm surprised you think that NMH/Crow/Weezer stretch was jarring, because I thought that was one of the best flows in Part II. They all have the sunny day feeling.
