Actually it is not advisable to submit excerpts of a piece of music because it is the composition as a whole that counts. My intention was to introduce a new artist. I am somewhat at a loss because my other options either do not fit here in terms of genre or they are well-known stuff. I think I should withdraw because I unfortunately don't have time to do any more research atm.

You have done nothing wrong, I will accept any nomination you'll make, so do not discourage.

If I haven't missed anything, there is no genre restriction in this poll.

Sure, there are no genre restrictions. However one should take people's interests into account.

I don't know what happened that you think the songs you've posted so far are not good enough, what did I miss? Confused

I treat this as a way to share my interests with people and expose them to music that I like (which of course is pretty much the point of these polls, well, that sharing of what we like and experiencing what others like). People here have very varied interests, and part of the joy I think, in this series is being exposed to music me might not otherwise listen to and hopefully expanding those interests. Lots of us have very diverse diets (eclectic tastes) when it comes to music. And even if something is not the kind of music I would seek out (or normally enjoy), I still can appreciate experiencing it. And I don't think that the votes themselves are terribly interesting. What matters to me is experiencing the music, and ideally, sharing that experience (I'm not good at that and get embarrassed with my attempts).

Maybe I too am missing something.

@Cristi
I have suggested other genres from time to time but the feedback wasn't exactly enthousiastic. Hence I didn't nominate those tracks. But that doesn't matter. It's rather about whether or not it makes sense to submit excerpts of a track or composition, esp. if it is a less-known artist, you see?

I wouldn't have a problem with nominating a specific movement (or piece) from a greater composition, or a portion of a suite (especially if I had a youtube link to it). I guess it would depend on if I felt that it could operate in a stand-alone way or needed more context for appreciation.

A couple of the songs I nominated here got some negativity, I felt a bit discouraged, but what can I do,  I can't please them all,

You put into words what I wanted to say. I think that the suggested excerpt needs more context for appreciation of the concerto.

@Cristi
"A couple of the songs I nominated here got some negativity, I felt a bit discouraged, but what can I do,  I can't please them all."

That's true. I don't want to please at any cost but I don't want to bore people either. Otherwise interaction can't work.

Or shall I test the openmindness of the forumists f.e. with this one? LOL

Well, taking part is one thing, winning is another. Wink
By the way, I don't think anyone has to care about anybody else's tastes when selecting tracks. As long as you don't care for winning that is (which I don't, and neither does it bother me if anyone writes "I don't like your track because...").

Quite good!

Mila, are you enough openminded for this song? Wink

How are you?

Lately we have all been a bit distracted by something else, I am about to finish a long convalescence and go back to work, Nickie has left us (hopefully for a little while) and we all miss her, Christian and Kees are busy, The Anders is producing his own music... 


It's a moment of tiredness for the Interactive polls, but we hope to return to listen and comment on our suggestions to each other.

As much as I would like to, I can't manage to comment on all the suggestions and as it turns out I'm not the only one. It might make sense to slightly adapt the concept of the IP's by limiting it to one proposal per person? This would possibly bring a little more dynamism into the game. People could comment on the suggestions as soon as they are posted. Besides we wouldn't run out of material so quickly. - Btw, is there a possiblity for a little promo in other threads?


I think it's a good idea.
