Curatorfest Qualifier 4! CURATED by Dan Popomatic
Read and comment

Our fourth Curated Group comes from @danpopomatic and I am delighted to announce that the theme is DISCO. There may be more to it I admit but that’s very strongly the vibe I’m getting here. We have soulful disco from Jimmy Ross, Ghanaian disco from Kiki Gyan, anthemic gay disco from Macho and a modern take from Purple Disco Machine. Get down (and vote).

RESULTS: Jimmy Ross and Kiki Gyan advance to ANCIENT Round 1 – we won’t be seeing them for a while.

Welcome Back My Friends To The Poll That Never Ends
Read and comment

For the last few months the People’s Pop Polls have existed under the shadow of Elon Musk’s godawful new Twitter, and I’ve been promising an off-Twitter future on a new site.

That day has arrived!

We’re starting off the CHARITY CRUSHER POLLS today – tracks nominated via donation to two excellent charities, ActionAid and The Ruth Hayman Trust. I offered an option for people nominating four tracks to have them all in the same group, and we’re starting off with 13 of those CURATED GROUPS over three days.

There are likely to be all sorts of tweaks we make but the biggest changes to point out are these:

First, we’ve set up authentication by Twitter, so you should be able to log in, vote and comment easily.

Second, there’s now a link which takes you to ALL currently unfinished polls, which should make catching up very easy at any point.

Other than that, do let me know any issues, and we can work them out and get things running smoothly over the next few weeks. The Twitter account itself will stay active, linking to the polls and posting playlists (which will also be available here).

Happy polling!
