Ha! I knew I'd see Thomas Function on the list. Cheers for the Vivian Girls too, and a bunch of others. Speaking of the cut list, that string music from Toumani Diabaté is hypnotizing. Great set of picks. Happy New Year, Salman.

Very much in agreement with the majority of these picks, Salman. A few bands here I'm unaware of - so thanks for the link. I'll be giving this playlist a bit of attention over the weekend..

This looks very close to being what I'd pick as some standout tracks of '08. I've been a fan of Four Tet for a long time now, and a ton of the others; and I'm glad you chose "Plastic" over the very-cool-but-ubiquitous "Machine Gun". The only one I don't "get" is Jay Reatard. For some reason I just can't get into him.... but then, apparently there's a reason to like Daniel Johnston as well, which certainly mystifies me.

Some excellent picks here, Salman. It's a close call, but I'd say you managed to make up for the last-minute omission of Toumani Diabaté!

nice set, Salman. really like the new Animal Collective stuff, also the Jay Reatard Beach House and Elephant9/Terminus/Stereolab trio. but that "Be Your Own Pet" song made me want to drag her behind the gym and beat her up after school. :) Hope 2009 is off to a good start for you, both musically and life-wise.
