2021 Songs So Far - Quarter-Finals

Post by Schüttelbirne »

Welcome to the Quarter-Finals!

All you have to do is listen to the songs and vote for your favorite in the individual matchups.
You may only vote if you have actually heard all the songs in the matchup you're voting for.

The deadline is Friday, 10 September, so I can disclose the results one week from now (but if you need more time, just tell me).

Here's this week's matchups:

1. black midi | Slow (Loud) vs. Floating Points / Pharoah Sanders / London Symphony Orchestra | Movement 6
2. San Salvador | La grande folie vs. Mdou Moctar | Afrique victime
3. Noname | Rainforest vs. Wolf Alice | Delicious Things
4. black midi | John L vs. Orchestre Tout Puissant Marcel Duchamp | So Many Things (To Feel Guilty About)

Here's the playlist:

It's quite an interesting group that we came up with here; I'm super curious how these songs eventually place in the EOY poll.
