My Spotify playlists, let me show you them

Share, suggest, discuss.

Someone posted a post punk/ synthpop playlist link on the other thread- any chance of a re-up?

RawP's ILX Feb 09 list for starters: http://open.spotify.com/user/raw_patrick/playlist/5QqAXZcbQtPFL0w1ShUiem

Spotify would be the ideal place to host the famous ILM Rough Guides... if people are willing to put in the hard work (and if their catalogue is up to the job). The threads:

The Rough Guide to . . .
The Rough Guide Two...
The Rough Guide Part 3 (and general redux) - 15 tracks max or one CD only
A Rough Guide To ILM Touchstones

Hmm I might have a go at that on Sunday...

Doubt Beat

Great, thanks Jamie!

And I've just started a Prince album tracks one, but I've made it collaborative, so if anyone wants to add a load of stuff, particularly off all the more recent albums, which I don't know at all, go for it.

Prince LP Trax

I think this is what it could be really good for, collabortaive lists to accompany POX threads or whatever.

I've been re-reading Vahid's proto-kozmigroovers and Jaxon's jazz goes pop jazz goes disco threads and listening to all those records on Spotify.

I'm working on a Paradise Garage playlist, but there's a way to go yet.

Hopefully someone will post a ILX best of 2008 Poll playlist.

I've been working on that as well, but there are a surprising number of not-founds.

ILM Tracks of 2008 (currently missing "Whispers", "House Jam", "The Long Way Home", "National Shite Day", "Minimal", "Official Girl", "Bongo Jam", "Entropy Reigns", "Until We Bleed").

Village Voice Pazz & Jop: Top 100 singles

Rocktimists Critics Poll Tracks 2008

The Pitchfork 500

UK Top 40 singles (plus a few stragglers)

ILM Rough Guide to Britpop.

Comic Songs and other amusing novelties

This playlist is collaborative so feel free to add to it.

ILM Rough Guide to Baggy.

ILM Rough Guide to Industro-Pop.

ILM Rough Guide to Techstep. (All 7 tracks of it...)

NME Critics' Singles Poll 1981.
(41 tracks out of 50 found)

Great idea, ledge!

Well let's just hope they stay afloat so this isn't all in vain. And that they add more obscuro '80s and '90s stuff to the catalogue or these will remain incomplete:

ILM Rough Guide to the Bo Diddley Beat
ILM Rough Guide to Vocoders etc
ILM Rough Guide to Electro (all 6 tracks)

ILM Rough Guide to Neil Young (missing "This Note's For You

")

Helpful (perhaps obvious) hint: the no. of tracks returned in a search list is limited, you may get more if you click through to the artist. And you can search for/jump to tracks there just by typing the start of the name.

ILM Rough Guide to David Bowie (missing Drowned Girl)

ILM Rough Guide to Orbital (missing You Lot)

Nearly all of the Rough Guide to Early-Mid 60s Nashville.

ILX 2007 Tracks Poll Results

Several tracks missing (Radiohead,Spoon...) and sadly no Ewan Pearson remix of Cortney Tidwell but still gets the bulk of the list.

ILM 2008 Albums Poll Results

To be completed, obv. And I could only find 20 of the 40, and one of them's the wrong version of the album... but still, it's something...

ILX 2007 Tracks Poll Results
Erm, this is 2008...?

Oh crap, ignore me. I've been down the pub.

These are brilliant - keep them coming, and thanks for the work involved so far.

The Face - Best Singles of 1986

OMFG I WAS JUST LISTENING TO THAT PLAYLIST ABOVE AND COMPILING THE ROUGH GUIDE TO SOFT ROCK, AND JUST AS I ADDED VAN HALEN WHY CAN'T THIS BE LOVE, VAN HALEN WHY CAN'T THIS BE LOVE CAME ON

and no i didn't double click or anything, it was definitely playing from the 'the face' playlist.

Anyway, three or four omissions in each of these, but still a decent selection.
ILM Rough Guide to Soft Rock
ILM Rough Guide to R&B, 91-96

Spotify playlists to replace the mixtape?

Melody Maker Critics' Poll - 1988 Singles.

Only a 50% success rate on this selection, but it captures the essence.

Spotify playlists to replace the mixtape?

The mix-what now?

(All but a few missing tracks of) some dude's double-disc SD mix from You Got De Steely Dan Mixtape

Personal top 40 Pet Shop Boys b-sides and album tracks not really including remixes except where it does

Pitchfork Top 100 2008

ILM Top 100 Tracks of the 70s (includes a few inferior alternative versions of songs inc. 'More More More' because the originals aren't there, and a couple of replacements for songs not on there at all) - and sorry it's ordered topdown

Really good. I've now become a Spotify subscriber - more out of a sense that I support what they're doing and hope they fully succeed, more than finding the adverts irritating.

yeah i'm subscribing too now. gotta support the good service.

having said that it's just stopped scrobbling for some reason...

As I moaned on the other thread: hasn't scrobbled properly for me (or a shitload of other Mac users) for two weeks now; despite a lengthy thread on Get Satisfaction in which a Spotify chap promised us they'd worked out what the problem was, we're still waiting on the upgrade. Given that it was an (unwanted/un-asked-for/forced-upon-us) upgrade that fucked it in the first place, I've kind of gone off it a bit.

Yeh, I know, wau wau wau, whining about a service that gives me free music, etc ... ach, see the other thread for my semi-feeble justification.

New ILM Spring collabo playlist.

Really busy at the mo' but thought I'd throw this out... feel free to add to it any music that 18 month old twins might like.

They usually get played Woody & Leadbelly, trad R&R, doo-wop (especially!), and the boy gets terribly excited jumping up and down to that Come on "Baby, Let's Go Down Town" song on Tonight's the Night!

Toddlermusik-Bend My Children's Minds

Useless thing.. let me try this again:

Toddlermusik-Bend My Children's Minds

New ILM Spring collabo playlist.

woah that Phil Collins track is v Phoenixy - nice

It's a great summer track! There's a good dubby Idjut Boys re-edit of it too.

I'm happy the playlist has taken off.

sorry i just swamped it with new singles released this month, most of which i hadn't yet heard (deleted a couple of the real stinkers already)

The single swamping is useful to me!

Check out the Florence and the Machine version of "You Got the Love" and VV Brown version of "This Charming Man". They are both fucking awful. VV Brown also does a 15 minute reading from Marian Keyes novel "This Charming Man" wtf?

haha weird I saw that yesterday (the VV Brown) completely coincidentally.

I can't get onto the ILM collab list until this evening, but please to be adding "Many-Coloured, Semi-Precious Plastic Easter Eggs" by Peter Sarstedt?

Okay.

(Scrobbling now working on mac for me since yesterday evening)

Properly or just intermittently? I could get it to work occasionally but it'd usually die again halfway through an album.

Today I need to TOIL HARD and NOT LISTEN TO MUSIC, though.

I couldn't find the "A Life Less Lived" Rhino gothic compilation on Spotify so I made one, almost.

We put up some spotify mixes on the Quietus recently including one on the influences on 'Primary Colours' by The Horrors.

18 tracks that have influenced the new Horrors album

(And just the Spotify link: http://open.spotify.com/user/misterluke/playlist/0lGe9G1dQelbAJeiXOZkC6)

And a playlist on snow.

And another one on giving stuff up for Lent.

The Quietus one on acts Kraftwerk influenced is v good too:

http://open.spotify.com/user/misterluke/playlist/0dFqQRXMz98EvVAlDkCxAz

I forgot that one.

Their actual collection of Kraftwerk songs is only fair to middling.

I'm making an 80s hip hop list, any suggestions?

http://open.spotify.com/user/nstewart/playlist/6Pn6wgF6uDFPzsiz4x50x2

80s hip hop is a pretty big list to choose from possibly?

But what about Cash, Money Marvellous 'The Mighty Hard Rocker', Eric B and Rakim 'Juice (Know The Ledge)', BDP 'The Bridge Is Over', Beastie Boys 'Slow and Low', Public Enemy 'You Gonna Get Yours', LL Cool J 'Rock The Bells', KRS One 'My Philosophy'.

Here's a small article and Spotify playlist on Marxist funk versus Thatcherite pop.

lol i want a invite, marlonks at gmail dot com

ages ago I tried compiling a Dance equivalent of this:

Brit Box UK Indie
The Brit Box UK Indie Box Set...

with 4 discs (hiphop+ragga, breakbeat+jungle, techno+trance and house+garage the sections) roughly covering the '88-'98 period

but only half of what i had in mind is on spotify (e.g. no voodoo ray ffs) so have just made up the numbers with stuff i found by some (relatively) big/important names (blame most of any glaring omissions on spotify)

here

Grab-bag catch-all nu-balearic playlist: Meanderthals, Hatchback, Mountain of One, Beyond the Wizard's Sleeve remixes. You know the drill.

The UK Top 40 from exactly 25 years ago (w/e June 16 1984), missing only 4 tracks.
(Unfortunately, "Two Tribes" is one of them, and that was at #1.)

Playlist for a sticky July evening: http://is.gd/1wdo1

ILM Summer/Autumn 2009

nice, thanks aqua teen cunga force. Fill em up people

I've added the whole section from Larry Heard to Mulatu Astatke, hopefully in a logical/listenable sequence.

Thanks for these above.

Here is a straight down the line, MOR radio tune one with some feel good additions from Nate Dogg and Level 42.

The feature on kicking nihilism into touch with the aid of 'Baker Street'.

And just the Spotify list.

http://open.spotify.com/user/stevem78/playlist/4dgkVKD2ZIBZoff2k6rVlR

appears that all Pink material has been yanked off spotify

Ooh, handy. Ta for that.

Pink still showing up fine for me, BTW....

oh that's weird - searching 'pink' turned up nothing by her but it's all there

shame

I've been doing one of these per month since July, so here's the latest: Hits of September, 1960-2009.

http://is.gd/2LCYc

(All selections being UK Top 20 hits that entered the charts in September. Some years were... easier than others.)

Divine In 1989: A set list inspired by the recent Neil Kulkarni article/ILX poll.

Here's a few that I've got knocking about

Mojo's Motown 50th Anniversary Top 100
AtEase's 2008 Top 1000(Radiohead Message Board All time list)
UK#1's
Songs with the 'Be My Baby' drumbeat in.
The Pitchfork 500 (1977-2006)
P2K 500
NME Singles of The Week 2000- (only up to Dec 2005 on this)

Hits of November (1960-2009).

(...and if you're collecting the set, I never posted Hits of October.)

M- People? A bold choice.

It wears surprisingly well!

Cool and odd Finnish cover versions of American and international pop hits

Not a assembled playlist, but I just found a 51 track Nervous New York collection...

http://open.spotify.com/album/7oICDDqixcv7BRLqrqi8lc

Is anyone doing end-of-year Spotify playlists?

yeah, its now preferred to mixCDS between my friends. Although having hardly listened to much that came out in 2009, mine will just be selection of stuff I've listened to regardless of release date.

I would like to see ... anyone's.

even mine? OK (top 100 work in progress, in no order, availability permitting)

Here's a list of singles from this year for research reference for EOY singles lists. http://bit.ly/MfVNo No order and a bit of a mess.

just got premium....playlists would be nice for the iphone, anything, everything....

Man, I wish this shit was out in the states already.

The Stylus Decade: singles list.

For all of you who use Spotify, has it changed the way you listen to music at all? Do you still go back to your CDs/mp3s as much? Just wondering what sort of effect it has on music consumption habits.

My top tracks of 2009.
One track each from my top albums of 2009.
(Both lists in ascending order.)

My listening highlights of February 2010: http://is.gd/9tgRS
(works best if played in its original sequence)

Is there an ILX Spring/Summer 2010 playlist I've missed?

started one for 2010 - add stuff

My listening soundtrack for May - again, works best in its original sequence.

(I do these every month, but keep forgetting to post the links where people might find them.)

My listening soundtrack for June: L'vovo Derrango, Shakira, Kylie, Robyn, Scissor Sisters, Kele, Jahcoozi, Secret Cinema, Elektro Guzzi, Ripperton, Diskjokke, Ratatat, James Blake, Gayngs, Herbert, Trentemoller, Dayton, Cyclades, Voyage, Sugarhill Gang, Voice of Q, Falco, Stevie Wonder, John Grant, Jackie Leven, Tom Jones, Dead Weather, Black Keys, Delorean, Aeroplane.

how do i shot opening playlists in the iphone app?

They open OK for me when I click the links - but for some reason, they won't open from the Zing Touch app.

click the links, ha! far too mundane a solution for me to come up with :)

altho it only shows me two tracks in yr june playlist :(

working now, third time's the charm

nah this is still as flaky as fuck

Playlists can take a while to load, so initially you might only see a couple of tracks.

it just seems to give up and drop out to the search.

Boo. I've had that very occasionally. Are you on version 0.4.6.4?

yeah. i should update, i see there is a new version released this very day. with background listening! but not for me ;_;

Finally, a reason to upgrade to iOS4!

compiled Matos' top 100 tracks of 2010 altho only 69 of them are here.

Here are my favourite standalone singles/tracks of 2010, in ascending order of wondrousness.

My 2010 list is in: http://open.spotify.com/user/geirhong/playlist/5NQbB2s85Pde5CjX9Q8D3C

Michelangelo Matos and mike t-diva's playlists are ace, still working my way through them. I checked Geir's too and it's better than I expected, not least the North Atlantic Oscillation which I'd never heard of http://open.spotify.com/album/4BJrmfqO7b0ZLped6EyZb4

I'm going to start publishing weekly Spotify playlists, with track-by-track blurbs on my old Troubled Diva blog. I'm calling them "Spoticasts". Here's the first one: http://troubleddiva.wordpress.com/2011/01/03/troubled-diva-spoticast-001/

playlist of people who passed away in 2010 (taken from playlist/downloadable mix on jonathan bogart's blog)

my personal 100 favourite tracks of 2010 (except 6 aren't on spotify, but my youtube playlist has them all)

(except 6 aren't on spotify, but my youtube playlist has them all)

I am doing my best to include my favourite non-Spotify tracs in my lists. Felt particularly necessary in the 60s lists because the 60s without The Beatles feel meaningless.

Another Spoticast: Decemberists, British Sea Power, Jamie Woon, Teenage Fanclub, Drive-By Truckers, Derroll Adams, Gerry Rafferty, Japan, Mark Ronson, Mice Parade, Raghu Dixit, Cee-Lo Green, Fantasia, Jazmine Sullivan, Katy B/Ms Dynamite, Boney M, Cosmetics, School Of Seven Bells, Anna Calvi, James Blake.

Commentary is here.

I've started a collaborative playlist 'The Chain'. Open to anyone but two rules 1. the track must follow on using a word from the previous track 2. must be a different artist and song otherwise anything goes.

ILX Bummer in the Summer, 50 Melancholy California Songs (created from this thread)

http://open.spotify.com/user/hetdronkenschip/playlist/3YgRP8X0Pj9TIsSntBfjlG

Enjoy!

I am working on making a playlist out of "1001 Songs You Must Hear Before You Die", but obv will take some time to get it finished.

Geir, could it be an idea to make it a collaborative playlist? That way, ten users, say, could all add 100 songs to it and hey, presto. I'll take a 100 off your hands, if you point me to the list of songs.

Alternatively, you could open this one http://open.spotify.com/user/lasse_nordgren/playlist/2IBJDRjelu4ayq6M3N9H4G

Le Bateau Ivre - I can't seem to open your California Songs list unfortunately. (Just comes up with nothing there). Would it be possible to post it again?

Oh I'm sorry, I don't know why that is! I had a major computer crash yesterday and need to install everything anew, from scratch, including Spotify. I plan to do so after work and see what's going on there.

Cheers, I'm looking forward to hearing it!

Bump. Took me a bit longer than I hoped, but please try it again, it should work now, the Bummer in the Summer playlist:

http://open.spotify.com/user/hetdronkenschip/playlist/3YgRP8X0Pj9TIsSntBfjlG

http://open.spotify.com/user/djperry1973/playlist/3E2CintWcKEgEpTqzJi8TD

Hello!

btw that playlist is only for those tolerant of terrible, terrible rapping in the name of comedy

how do you make a playlist?

several ways:

1. click "New Playlist" on the right-hand panel; rename the new playlist, then start dragging songs/albums to it
2. drag tracks/albums onto "New Playlist"; a playlist is created automatically that can be renamed

also you right-click the playlist and make sure "Publish" is checked to make it public (although I think that might be the default anyway)

That is the default AFAICT

Dan, I hope you're not going to use the gift of Spotify for evil.

http://open.spotify.com/user/djperry1973/playlist/09Ag6GRuRsvWZRKZajxBJY

WARNING: there is a good amount of 80s sentimentality here. Also, Anthrax and Panacea.

If anyone notices duplicated artists on this playlist, or between this and my previous playlist, please let me know.

as another side note: the sequencing of both of my 100-song playlists pretty much matches how I think about music, ie a random song will pop into my head and then I will chase down other songs related to it until a random tangent makes me think of another song

also btw, did you all know about this: http://www.spotify-forum.com/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=15

Can't find a link, but a simple search for "hyperdub" does the chrik

anyways, 5yrs of Hyperdub has enlightened to me of realms of dubstep far beyond what I.... er, whatever. It's good and I've listened to the compilation (2 discs! 32 songs!) twice today... lotta burial-esque dudes who thankfully aren't burial-esque when realizes I've only said that b/c I'm a terminological illiterate.

DJP... by any chance do you live in denver? and are an actual DJ? more specifically... a DJ Perry?

as it so happens... nope!

I did this one the other day - more at the beachy end of the spectrum. NB I put it together in about 5mins for an afternoon's listening which is why it has a whole Future Balearica compilation lazily chucked into the the middle.

a playlist of some current underground stuff, focusing on bands that are on -- or recently came up through -- cassette labels. a lot of these bands also owe a considerable debt to (a) suicide and (b) noir-ish 50s pop.

i'll keep adding to this, and i'm going to put together a 50s list (largely based on ilx's 50s poll).

http://open.spotify.com/user/nstewart/playlist/4IKcWqGQQ5cN1QTT0ya7xo

oh, yeah. i wasn't going to duplicate the 50s poll. my just reflects my recent interest in a particular type of moody, noir-ish, brooding, obsessive 50s/60s rock (and some rockabily, too).

but thanks -- i just subscribed to the ilm list.

btw my 80s/90s hip hop playlist is now 112 tracks, 8 hours! added: shante, the coup, smoothe da hustler, jt the bigga figga, biz, etc etc

really good stuff, thanks Daniel.

I've created a list based on Stephin Merritt's Millenium list of 100 recordings http://1930sblog.blogspot.com/2009/02/stephin-merritts-millenium-music-list.html

It's by no means complete, no 'Anthology of American Folk Music' for example. I only picked one track where he chose an album or symphony, but if you're keen you can explore from the links. I had a bit of leeway where he just listed a song with no artist, hence Harry Nillsson representing 1909.

Must be a licensing thing as I can see all of them.

Are you in the UK?

Yup.

Weird - they're all available for me in the UK. I guess you just have fewer than 111 tracks to enjoy then...

I'm in the States. Didn't realize there would be this many licensing discrepancies between the two.

I guess it's not that great a surprise that disco is prone to licensing tangles :(

nice one sean, thanks!

I did a playlist of some my favourite disco tunes too, it's 66 tracks and it doesn't overlap with Seandalai's.

awesome, you guys are kickstarting my disco love

I made a playlist of songs from 1994, very heavy on alt-rock and other stuff I was into at the time as a 15-year-old.

Amazing

Not much at all to this one. Just an hour's worth of music, 27 songs connected by a word in the song title. Not proud of each selection, but it did stay random.

http://open.spotify.com/user/pplains/playlist/3FEKqvrtlGm9RdRhrua4OX

A new 90-minute playlist each week (so far), linked here: http://rooseveltcongress.tumblr.com/

Mostly post'70 R&B, jazz (so far).

Don't think there's been an ILM collaborative playlist since the US came on board, so let's do another one?

ILM - your favourite 15 songs at the moment

As the name implies, this is intended to be a rolling "current favourites" playlist, with a max-per-user of 15 at any one time. So if you're adding more, take the older ones off.

Tried adding something but couldn't. Is it set to collaborative?

(That's 15 max per user, not 15 max on the whole playlist, of course...)

xpost - It definitely is now - try again?

Ooh, that Cornershop track was on my shortlist...

Success. My username is unterwasser btw.

I really recommend the Ane Brun remix, and the original too fwiw.

Marvellous. I'm keeping a non-collab backup, as well.

This Auntie Flo track is brill, the opening keyboard riff sounds naggingly familiar.

The Auntie Flo is my favourite track on a good album. Whereas the Purity Ring and Clark tracks are from albums which I'd previously dismissed as nothing special. I like it when that happens.

I posted a few tracks, no real pattern other than they were the first ones to come to mind. The first three came from the Stereolab Origins playlist.

First four rather.

Billy Dods' first track (Ane Brun) flows very well from my last track (P-Square)... on crossfade, they're pretty much beat-matched.

Enjoying this

That Chris Watson track is incredible. Knew nothing about him before; album concept sounds intriguing.

One of the original members of Cabaret Voltaire. Has been working as a sound recordist for past 30 years and has released a number of treated field recording. I think 'El Tren Fantasma' is his most successful, but they're all worth checking out. I'd love to hear a 5.1 mix of this.

I just moved Quad City DJ's so it follows it. Can't believe I didn't think of it earlier.

i really like the flotation song

the throat-clearing in the Ikonika track :D

I added a 15. Pretty random and with no thought of looking cool to my record nerd virtual friends, but they are what I am listening to right now.

this is a great idea! i will add my 15 this afternoon.

added!

I have a Spotify question. If I go into a playlist like the collaborative one Mike created and sort by time or by artist or whatever, how can I get the playlist to go back to its original order of tracks? Sorting by "Added" doesn't always get it back to the exact original order -- at least it didn't in this case.

If you've clicked on (for example) "Artist" to sort, click it twice more and it should revert to the original order.

Huh...clicking "Artist" any number of times didn't seem to work, but I clicked "User" twice and that took it back to the original order. Thanks, seandalai! (Spotify's interface could stand to be more intuitive imo.)

Added a chunk.

i fleshed out my "best of the peel archives" playlist to 100 tracks. they're only up to the letter r over at the space, so i'll be adding more tracks eventually.

If Spotify could add a chat/salon function so that people subscribed to a playlist could chat while it played, they'd have a worthy successor to Outloud or Plug.dj

that'd make it even more of a resource hog than it already is!

I hadn't noticed it drinking my milkshake -- is it bad for everyone else?

it is for me, but i always have a lot of things running at once.

Collaborative playlisting + chat is basically Soundrop, which never seemed to take off around here.

One reason Soundrop never took off with me: user-generated rooms & chat don't really work on iPhone/iPad, which is where most of my streaming happens.

Anyhow! This collaborative playlist is a goldmine. Just coming to the end of arosner's set, which is straight-up front-to-back blissfulness. (The Roches had a Jon-Anderson-soundalike moment in 1982? Who knew?)

Loving the Peel playlist, thanks GB!

still going through the collaborative playlist. i'm gonna have the cookies' "i never dreamed" in my head for hours.

added 15 more (deleted my other 15).

really love that advisory circle track.

I kept a diary of sorts of stuff I was listening to all summer, some good jawns on this

Just added a new set of 15 to the end of the rolling collaborative playlist - have taken the old ones off. Was aiming for a decent sequential flow between the tracks.

seandalai's mix rocking the house right now! Great choices.

I had no idea who The Roches were, so that Fripp solo kinda knocked me out. There are so many jams on the collaborative playlist. Thanks, everyone!

sitting here with a glass of flattish prosecco and some salted snacks, v much enjoying upper m sh@kedown's list, and looking fwd to a week's holiday.

listening to the 15 tracks collab playlist. this morning i've starred: mariem hassan, these are powers, sun araw.

the collaborative playlist is the best thing

Just WOW at the Chief Kooffreh track that seandalai posted http://open.spotify.com/track/11wOIDJ7C7lgGawFcY535H Just amazing. What's the guy's deal, there's about 50 albums and they all feature more or less the same tracks?

Full credit: I discovered Chief Kooffreh via the Guardian's Strangest Records on Spotify seres. I don't know much about the Chief, serious Wesley Willis vibes about him though. In any case "Alicia Keys and Shakira" is damn addictive.

uh "series" obviously

That feature looks great, makes me wonder why no one's done it before. The London field recording album looks very interesting.

some 2012 tracks (and a song from the can lost tapes):

ok I didn't expect that answer :)

as in, I expect Fushitsusha to sound serious and existentialist rather than all Velvetsy.

Between 1987 and 1989, I DJ-ed a mixed gay night at various venues in Nottingham. This is a sequenced playlist of floor-fillers from those nights:

yo, thanks for that

was disappointed to see that this thread doesn't explore the vast expanse of mutant/fake/hipster/hybrid/armchair drum 'n bass, so I ransacked Spotify's piecemeal archives f/ mutant breaks and then threw in bits of techno/industrial/noize to connect the dots (warning! may contain moments of ~conventional~ d'nb, chill out ppl). nine breezy hours of three-boots-in-a-dryer entertainment, cheers.

Thanks! I also realized that you could search "label:whatever" and got some great results that way, especially for dance music (for example, label:"paper recordings" or label:!k7).

Yeah it's useful. What I'd really like is to be able to subscribe to a label and get updates whenever it puts out something new/

Labels should maintain a playlist! For the big guys, it would be crazy-unwieldy, but for the smaller labels, it would make a ton of sense.

Also a bunch of labels seem to add releases a few weeks after they're in the shops, at which point I've forgotten that I need to look out for them.

Now what I want out of Spotify is smart playlists, or live search lists or something, where I could store a search query as a playlist, and it would get updated whenever there were new tracks that matched my query. Could that be done with an app, maybe?

I would love to be able to play a playlist without opening it first. I have one huge playlist that has to open and load thousands of tracks before it can play which takes about 5 minutes or more, I have to imagine there's a more efficient way for this to work.

A couple of weeks ago I was sitting in Moeder Lambic in Brussels and I soundhounded all the songs that were being played and it was really a perfect playlist while I was drinking. Here it is, minus a couple of songs that weren't available.

Wrong one, this should be it.

Not my playlist, but surely a crucial one for ILM: Songs mentioned in Autobiography by Morrissey

semi-related: if you're having problems with songs stopping and starting repeatedly, there's a solution: become a premium subscriber, make an album a playlist, and make that playlist/album Available Offline.
