Beck will once again serve as a judge for this years Shortlist Music Project, which made it's debut last year. The project honors albums solely on their creative merit, all selected by more than 15 listmakers including Beck, Kim Gordon of Sonic Youth, Moulin Rouge director Baz Luhrmann, Mos Def, The Strokes' Albert Hammond Jr., and India.Arie. From a long list that includes each listmaker's five selections, the listmakers will select their top 10 albums. The top vote-getters become the Shortlist finalists, and the winner is then selected by the listmakers on the night of the awards ceremony, which will be on October 29th at the Knitting Factory in Los Angeles.
