I propose we scrap the free for all nominations we currently have, and instead assign one person per month to take a turn. Perhaps they can nominate several albums and everyone can vote for their fav from there. This way everyone will get a turn, and we can guarantee that the music will be more varied.

This idea appears to have gone down well, so starting in March we are going to be running this differently. One person will be assigned at random to be our host for the month, and they will nominate up to five albums, one of which will then be voted for by everyone else.

Before we find out who our first host under the new setup is going to be, I need a list of confirmed participants going forward, so I know exactly who is up for selection. Consider this a signup thread. I'll auto-in those who have been regularly participating, so this is mostly for those of you who haven't participated previously. I'll keep this open until Friday, and then we'll find out who our host for March will be.

Also please answer the poll.

1. Christian
2. Ahoda
3. Spin
4. Lamps
5. Boc
6: Mads
7. Mittens
8. Merc
9.

I say 1 . More time to listen to it multiple times

I lost interest in FE Listens because it wasn't in this format, count me in.

I'm accepting this as the list of participants going forward:

1. Christian
2. Ahoda
3. Spin
4. Lamps
5. Boc
6: Mads
7. Mittens
8. Merc

If you want to join in but missed signups, that's fine, but you will be waiting longer for your turn, as the people above will get first priority when it comes to selection.

The vote for changing the format is tied, so the sensible option is to stick to the status quo. We will stick to one album a month.

The way this will work is everyone will take a go nominating in a random order. I will omit myself from the process as the latest album was my pick. I did consider giving people who haven't had a go at all yet preference, but I've decided to keep it simple and make it completely random.

So without further ado, our first host under the new system will be...Christian! You lucky bastard.

Christian, please PM me your nominations by Tuesday evening. Anything between 3-5 albums please! Send sample tracks too if you wish.

As soon as Christian has sent me his nominations, I will make a thread for us all to vote on them from there.

In the meantime, everyone feel free to rate Hour of Bewilderbeast.

ooh, I'll try to send you 3 album nominations by Tuesday evening.

I'm taking this very seriously!

It's a lot of responsibility

I think I did it. I picked 5 albums that I haven't listened to yet and tried to get different genres so they aren't all the same.
