New stuff / Sit-rep
Nine Inch Nails storm the Audioscrobbler charts! Looks like their new album is popular :)

We've been tuning the submission system this weekend. It's alive again now, and will start catching up. New accounts will be available once it's caught up.

Slight update to artist pages; now you can see the subtle difference between songs that get played the most, and songs that get played by the most people.

Artist-relation data has been updated again, see the explore music menu point, or the big fat search box on the homepage.

Moderations - the mod system has been removed as we are replacing it with a super-duper new MusicBrainz oriented mod system that will kick some serious ass.

Also being worked on at the moment:
- "Tagging" (flickr/delicious-esque)
- Native software player for Last.fm radio
- Proper album stats for Audioscrobbler
- Musicbrainz goodness, so we can use advanced relationship data etc. (click here for an example)
- More hardware, faster everything, cure for cancer.

It's because Abby McDonald started a thread about it. She posted it as a mystery mp3 on her blog and asked everyone to guess who it was.

Credit where credit is due: This had me roffling out of all possible proportion.

"Blank Generation" and "Heart of Glass" are both in the ILX Top 40 (tied for #38).

I am the king of the shocking username...

They have #11 too. And five or six more in the top 40.

Formative musical moments are being hijacked. Come on people, do it for the shorties.

it looks like that is mostly from the vitalic and basement jaxx remixes though.

Charts are depressing atm

We'll listen to anything if it's free...

(Not a snipe at the New Pornographers, just saying.)

new here (to ilx), but i thought i'd chime in on this one.

The interweb's 3rd biggest Isolée fan! :-O

or maybe it takes awhile for your songs to show up?

My audioscrobbler currently not updated because my PC is broke and I'm on my (hated) iBook and can't be faffed with that.

Maybe you need to put your details in there (username/password) before it can register your tunes at the other end?

I couldn't find any faq's on their website, so maybe theres a text file which explains some of this (there is on mac) about, is it a .zip file?

i love how nothing is there (yet). i feel very pure.

Im sure a search there might find something.

It'll be boring as hell for a while- I listen to most of my music on my CD player, since my laptop's speakers are miserable, and I have few mp3s at the moment since I'm still piecing my soulseek/shared files folder back together after a hd crash.
