Musical Tips For 2012

[General Smuts]

Similar rules as the Deathlist except backwards and rather than celebrity lives tis about musicians careers and breaking through and that. 2 winners will be chosen by myself in December 2010/Jan 2011 but overall winner will be voted for in a poll on here.

The one rule is that whoever you pick cannot have released an album yet and the unknown bonus which is obviously open to enterpretation will have to be verified to count.

Here's my tips to make it big in 2010 as an example:

1. Ellie Goulding

2. Marina & The Diamonds

3. Chew Lips

4. Two Door Cinema Club

5. The Drums

Unknown Double Points Bonus: Eliza Doolittle

Simples.

As I proved to be such a massive Nostradamus in 2010 I thought i'd bring this bad boy back.

Here's my tips to make it big in 2012:

1. Azaelia Banks

2. Spector

3. Skrillex

4. Bleeding Knees Club

5. Howler

Unknown Double Points Bonus: Reptar

[The Doctor]

1. Dog Is Dead

2. Hourglass Sea

3. Hail To The Eskimo

4. Oddbeat

5. Hundred Dollar Cigar

Unknown Double Points Bonus: Small Print

Isn't picking someone who already has a number one and number two single to her name cheating a little? Unless there IS in fact an Emile Sande as well as an Emeli Sande...

[Samilktray]

Frank Ocean will be huge this year. The only person who stands out to me off the top of my head.

Fair Point i will change that to theme park then

I don't think you should really be able to call Skrillex. Radio 1 were doing it earlier, hyping on about how big he's going to be.

I'm sorry, but if you're a dubstep producer and you're played three or four times a day on Radio 1 you're already overplayed and you've already "made it big."

A lot of these have already been tipped elsewhere!

So is this a list of artists that are going to be good or going to be successful? - cos usually, there's a difference.

[Langston]

3. Skrillex

"make it big" and that smuts has selected skrillex suggests successful, not good.

Exactly. That fella is clown shoes. I would've chose Frank Ocean if I was choosing good (and he hadn't had an album out).

Turns out I met Skrillex when he was in a good band called From First To Last. I'm sure he weren't so feminine back then.

I was going to suggest that maybe you were just even more feminine back then so didn't notice it as much, but is that actually possible?

[lcfcadam]

After the utterly incomprehensible pre-New-Year hype of Lana dull-as-ditchwater-infused-with-essence-of-dead-****ing-sloth Rey, pretty much anything counts as exciting and something I'd tip for success...
