re: is there a way I can c/p the tracklist from spotify?

Niels, yes you can do this by following these instructions:

1. First, make your Playlist Public on Spotify.

2. Sign up for a free account on SpotOnTrack (this only takes 10 seconds) - create a new username / password. then verify account via email.
http://www.spotontrack.com
SpotOnTrack uses a Spotify API for Spotify Data.

This site is not affiliated with or part of Spotify.

3. Wait 24? to 48 Hours? for your playlist to be indexed on SpotOnTrack. maybe the API retrieves data sooner?

4. Find your playlist, either by playlist search (this can be very slow as there are currently 3,008,564 playlists, so give your playlist a unique name) or by search for an artist then track that is included on your playlist (pick an obscure artist / track so that you can find your playlist easily)

5. When your playlist has been displayed, highlight the text you need from the bottom upwards with your mouse, right click copy - then use a text editor like Notepad on Windows 10 to paste the text to.

e.g forksclovetofu's 2018 Keepers playlist on Spotify
https://open.spotify.com/user/forksclovetofu/playlist/5F4O9GGhAEY5zYDDakpCuB
has 280 tracks at the mo, 9 followers

on SpotOnTrack
http://www.spotontrack.com/playlists/2681487#tab-tracks
(you need to be logged in to see this)
data is grouped 100 entries / per page

and this is an example of the copy / paste to notepad (i have only included the first track)

data elements:
track title
artist
date added to playlist
BPM
Music Key

Added on
1 All The Stars (with SZA)
SZA, Kendrick Lamar 2018-01-05 BPM 97
Key G#

it's not perfect, so you may need to do some manually reformatting in your text editor / Word Processor e.g Artist - Track

alright, thanks for sharing - a bit more troublesome than I had hoped, but it's always cool to see people are using the API to do stuff like that (recently found another one that lets you automatically follow all artists in your library)

debut track from 17 year old singer from Nottingham, lovely vocals (found via Mary Anne Hobbs, BBC 6 Music)

whoops. forgot that youtube would embed.

ah lee noble, that had passed me by

I don't know what the name of the non-indie-pop indie thread is, but it doesn't have "rolling + 2018" in its title so I can't find it.

Anyway, I heard a couple tracks from this Frigs album, Basic Behaviour, on the radio tonight and I'm all in.

Loving this comp of mostly-unreleased weirdo 80s synthpop by session dude Tommy Mandel

https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/2483/4736/products/ICE015_TommyMandel_Art_1080x.jpg

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=88M7XgIOpNI

been hearing a lot of stuff from that on nts - sounds good!

really liking this

Friend on that Mandel collection sounds a lot like Arthur Russell.

Allow Me to Destroy You sounds like Ariel Pink, even the title.

Wait... so the vocals on Friend ARE Arthur Russell??

What's the story with strange comp? I feel like this is another moment where the whole decontextualised experience of Spotify fails me.

I cannot thank all of you enough for introducing me to a ridiculous number of great new tracks. I'd add "Shape of My Mind" by Halifax quartet Neon Dreams, which is a brilliant exercise in use of negative space, sing-along double-choruses, and "HUH"s. https://open.spotify.com/track/0Ue01ZUf4zOY65gVmSjP9t?si=vJIVziXjQkOzjXbQLbiJBA

Album:
Warm Bodies - s/t

If the ilxor tracks poll was done mid-year No tears left to cry would be the winner.

Ain't gonna start a standalone thread for it, because my track record with those is poor, but I implore everybody lurking in this thread to listen to Kadhja Bonet's 'Childqueen' album: http://kbonet.com/album/childqueen

impressed with the last one, will check it out
