Well here's a thread I wish I had seen/bookmarked a while ago

blake mills - heigh ho

Is there a function on Spotify that lets you see what was recently added? I get little notifications once in a while but they're kind of paltry.

use the sorting hat:

Glenn, how does the hat handle albums/singles NOT released on Tuesday? I was looking to this as a weekly pickup compendium but I'm gathering lots goes in at other times. Never saw the Jeezy album show up in the hat as a for instance?

You're doing the lord's work here.

Each Tuesday's Hat includes things released on Spotify from the previous Wednesday through that Tuesday. The Jeezy record was in the 9/2 Hat.

ah, good to hear; i must've just overlooked it. also saves me from getting obsessive about FOMO.
Btw, show your overlords this thread -> get the hat added to the spotify frontpage -> get a big raise -> start a cult in bermuda -> ilx works

so this went up this week too:

Distant Cousins · "Distant Cousins EP"

notable to me primarily bc it's comprised of former members of jewish alt-rock stalwarts moshav band + blue fringe. unfortunately it's not explicitly alt-orthodox sadly :/

Those first four albums should keep me busy all month at least

it doesn't seem like the syro album is working yet

It is working for me at this very moment.

Anyway, I came here to ask: Is there a way to filter the sorting hat so that it shows only albums?

mine says This track is currently not available in the US. If you have the file on your computer...

i'll restart my client and try again i guess

cool - that did it

Jaymc, I'll try to add an albums-only filter next week or the week after.

I don't know why I had any high expectations for this Mapei album, but...pew.

lol look at what got buried under the video game music category:

Goat · Commune

lol

soundtrack to an area in goat simulator no doubt

heh, there's one i missed too

can i ask if someone here works for spotify—why can we not access "my music" on the ipad app yet? is that coming soon?

Jaymc, I'll try to add an albums-only filter next week or the week after.

Cool, thanks, Glenn!

Yes, I work for Spotify, and yes, iPad updates are on the way! I don't know a specific date (and I'm not personally involved), but it shouldn't be too much longer.

:)

"Neil Young updated Neil Young's discography" just came up on my activity feed, lol

i loved garth brooks when i was very young. my mom always had his albums on cassette in the family van. this man has made it impossible to legally hear his music digitally for < $13

and so i will never hear it again

i got garth's first three albums on cd for 2 bucks each at amoeba recently. worth it!

OK, for those of you with an aversion to singles, there's now an albums-only version of the Sorting Hat at http://everynoise.com/spotify_new_albums.html.

Thanks!

also i don't know what Steve Aoki · Neon Future I is however ray kurzweil did the intro and there are fall out boy and waka flocka flame tracks... but only commentary available atm on spotify

Tove Lo · Queen Of The Clouds interested in hearing this.

it is pretty great

Where's a forks list? Too much tv this week? ;)

too much work and too much backlog of new music already; i haven't gotten all the way through syro but twice!
Also PRINCE how are you missing TWO NEW PRINCE ALBUMS that I just grabbed without looking here at all
But yeah, I'm going trawling tonight.

i did mention the prince albums but i'm not really a prince guy

i've gone through syro a bunch so i'm ready for the new

Holy crap, this week. A new CHVRCHES song and the deluxe reissue of Big Country's <i>Steeltown</i> would have been enough for me, personally, but there's even some new music that isn't from Scotland. I'm excited to hear the whole Tove Lo album, too. There's also a promising EP from fellow Swedish singer Laleh. I'm liking the new songs by Lorde, Tinashe and Fei-Fei. I'm excited that the new tyDi album has a song with Kerli singing. There's a VAMPS ballad and a Gackt soundtrack. The Last Bison, who I think of as one of the more interesting quiet stomp-and-holler bands, has a new album. Chihiro Onitsuka and Billys Sandwitches have a very non-idolish j-pop album.

In metal there are grim new albums I'm excited to hear by 1349, Khold, Nightbringer, Xerath, Nonexistence and Unit 731, and bright gothic extravagances by White Empress, Ancestral Legacy and Davey Suicide. And one of my old favorite neo-prog bands, Enchant, has a new one.

And then there is a pile of intriguing weird-noises albums I mostly don't know anything about, but flagged to hear: Ssaliva, Hampus Hyppe, Gus Till, Giant Claw, Second Suspense, Calvin and the Hobgoblins, The War on Peace, Toydrum. And there's a really pretty acoustic-guitar album by somebody called T-cophony that sometimes is just guitar and sometimes mixes in all sorts of other things and sometimes doesn't.

I especially think people here who are fond of Prince and Owen Pallett and FrankMusik and r-neg-b and vaporwave ought to check out this 4-song EP by "Calvin + the Hobgoblins", about whom the internet seems to know rather little. http://open.spotify.com/album/1cz9578wBlfpgFpm9heKUU
