The ballot I submitted to Idolator last night:

(plus BONUS!! comments)

Top 10 albums of 2007

1. Burial Untrue (Hyperdub)
Gave me something to believe in.

2. Young Dot This Is The Beginning
Haunted, hypnotic grime. Focused, charismatic, full of ideas, colder than dry ice, suspended in its own atmosphere.

3. Ghetto, Devlin, Chipmunk, Griminal, P

nice...! that page just made me lose my self-esteem.

i like this Google Translated phrase about Distance:

"precisely in this crankiness is also the strength."

you weren't into the Pantha Du Prince record?

i enjoyed it, but overall i preferred the vibe of the Efdemin album. "saturn strobe" has to be one of the best tracks this year though...

i have to check out some items on your list...i haven't even heard half of those names :)

the Naphta album is the best jungle LP released this decade!! it would have made my top 10 if i'd gotten the full copy soon enough in the mail.

i don't know if you're into grime, but the Goodz, Roll Deep, Skepta, and Stryder (in a more pop way) records have some crossover potential. especially Skepta.
