My Spotify playlists, let me show you them

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.

i added 15 tracks from my saturday night comedown playlist.

also! autumnal hymnal pt. 2:

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):

Lots of good things there! Who are the Japanese band near the bottom? I can't copy and paste from Spotify to do a search.
