Hi fellow user! This year I’ll be hosting the Top 50 Albums of 2020 List Aggregate for users! The goal of this list is to achieve a concise and compact collection of the AOTY community’s favorite albums of 2020! Like last year, I’ll be choosing from 50 users’ lists to contribute.
That’s where you come in.
To guarantee your spot on the list, please let me know that you would like to be included. There are limited spots! That being said, to be included, you must...
* Have listened to and rated at least 50 albums from the year 2020.
* Have made a ranked list of those albums by Christmas (the last Friday of the year).
Remember, you can only be included if you have listened to and rated at least 50 albums from this year. If you only have a top 40, you won’t be accepted, unfortunately. If you have more than 50, that’s great! I’ll just be referencing your Top 50 for this project (I will peep the rest of your ratings just for fun).
Let me know! Happy listening friend!

Hey I’m sorry if this is annoying but me and my friends attempted to make a few ambient songs and we just uploaded our first song to Soundcloud! We would really appreciate it if you could give it a listen! Sorry for self promotion but we’re really looking for feedback - it’s only 90 seconds long :)
