Tom Vercetti Posted December 27, 2019 Posted December 27, 2019 Better late than never. I've been occupied with other things but I want to at least post my favorite albums/eps/songs of the decade here. To tell you the truth, I don't care much for 2019 so this will be the only thread I'll make for this section. It'll have 2019 content though so it's all good. This was the decade I've become an actual music consumer outside of radio/videogame osts so it's pretty special to me. I would place it 3rd behind the 80s and 90s on my favorite music decade ladder. I probably will not be finished before January 1st as I realize that a lot of this can be time-consuming and a bit tedious to keep up with. To make things easier, I am most likely just going to post all the songs/eps/albums at once. Not on the same day of course, but in intervals. It won't be huge amounts either like it has been on my previous best of's. I want to keep it to the point. I will update tomorrow so be on the lookout whoever's watching this.
volition Posted December 30, 2019 Posted December 30, 2019 I hope you switched on Aviary since 2018 but otherwise can't wait x
Tom Vercetti Posted December 31, 2019 Author Posted December 31, 2019 Hey! Back again. Sorry for kinda leading people on about updating earlier. I'm about to post my lists now. For those who have my rym, it's possibly spoiled already but this thread is for those who don't. Btw, I recently got a new laptop and I don't have access to fancy graphics yet so it's just gonna be text only. Pulling a Diarrhoea here

Tom Vercetti Posted December 31, 2019 Author Posted December 31, 2019 Hope everyone has a happy new year. The 2020s shall be interesting~
volition Posted January 1, 2020 Posted January 1, 2020 Well this is a great list. It definitely seems very characteristic to what I would've guessed. Love someone who can put ANTI so high (especially since I don't see Beyonce on your list, I feel like Rih kinda won the long game with that one). Glad to see Essentials make such an impact too, and am happy for the championing of Korridor and Bladee who I haven't seen in many places. It's a great top 10 too, only one I don't love is Autechre (as I haven't heard it and am far too scared to approach it). Hope you don't disappear in 2020 either I discover new things from your rym all the time.
potent Posted January 1, 2020 Posted January 1, 2020 (edited) Take Me Apart and Anti in your top 20 I didn't hear Good Kid Maad City or House of Balloons, but they're on my list to check out, I like both of the artists. Edited January 1, 2020 by potent
Eeveelution Posted January 2, 2020 Posted January 2, 2020 Really solid and diverse selections here I'll definitely try and check out some of the albums I don't know. Can't blame you for just posting all at once either, this section is a graveyard
