I listen to ambient music while running. This is a dynamic playlist of what's on rotation right now. I put this together during the ILX ambient poll, so some of it is my favorite discoveries from that. https://open.spotify.com/playlist/7zOqJPTf0EwcNxO3VQmRnp?si=woIaPLbUSYOS9vTxGnUxaw

just wanted to chime in to say that I'm currently listening to frame casual and Good cop, Babcock's desert playlists and while I still have a lot to go on both, I've been loving them so far and there's some great music in there that I have never even heard before. Thanks you two!
― fragglerock, Monday, 29 July 2019 16:30 (four years ago) link
Yes, enjoying both those lists. Into the Desert sustains some specific moods and textures while jumping across genres in a way I really like. My own list is sorta going for "Into the Pasture".

awes - I've been playing "In the Evening" on repeat recently, "Awake O Zion" too. I see a few things I haven't heard before, will queue them up.
This is kind of my version of that playlist: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/7JgTtjP1okA85VHJazcBEw?si=UhU0IJsgTEqlx3eZvd0KUg

Thanks seandalai. It was the Spotify algo that helped me find those two tracks. The Fern Kinney track is what inspired it. It's currently my favourite song in the world.

i started a v long and not-very-focussed playlist of wonky new wave / disco and boogie bits / odd prog / afro stuff / electronic muck / indie nonsense / lush soul etc. it's a work in progress and the running order is a mess so best on shuffle:

I assumed the Phil Collins was going to be a drone band I'd not heard of, but nope. Phil Collins. Helluva of a lead-off.

Spotify Wrapped giving me weird results this year, possibly a side effect of using the app less thanks to less work stability. Still, seems odd that Gordon Lightfoot is my top artist when not one of his tracks landed in my 100 most-played.
― Simon H., Thursday, 5 December 2019 13:43 (four years ago) link
Mine is 50% video game soundtracks I listen to at work. Any ideas if there's a way for it not to count stuff like this?
― YOU CALL THIS JOURNALSIM? (dog latin), Thursday, 5 December 2019 13:53 (four years ago) link
My top artist was Yosi Horikawa. Top of the decade was Susanne Sundfør. I kind of liked the little story it made up for me

mine said i 'really vibed with iglooghost - i explored 13 of their songs, listened to 2 of their albums, and spent over 1 hours with them'!

What is Spotify's deal with Hendrix? He's my number 3 artist of the year, but I don't think I've listened to him at all.
― Muswell Hillbilly Elegy (President Keyes), Thursday, 5 December 2019 14:28 (four years ago) link
how many minutes did y'all listen this year? i'm doubling even my most music-obsessed friends so i want to know that i'm not alone

943 new artists, 86 countries, 55k minutes... which is a new low apparently.

One factor that probably upset my data is falling asleep listening to an album or podcast that kept looping/going. I appreciate that the app seemed to get the idea eventually that I didn't want it to loop albums (i.e., it didn't keep going back to the default looping).
― eatandoph (Neue Jesse Schule), Thursday, 5 December 2019 16:05 (four years ago) link
I liked that last year’s data showed you how many different music genres you listened to. This time it only shows you your top 5 music genres.
― ✖✖✖ (Moka), Thursday, 5 December 2019 16:15 (four years ago) link
i listened to much fewer minutes than last year 58k compared to 79k... not entirely sure why. still, not bad but i really feel like i've slipped when it comes to listening to music in general for some reason.
Top non-soundtrack artists: Big Thief, Scott Walker, Autechre (no surprise there)87 different countries (wow!)
Someone called TPR who did an orchestral version of the Chrono Trigger soundtrack has been my top artist two years running, LOOOL

lol my kids annihilated my decade
congrats, Mark Mancina; your symphonic work on the Moana soundtrack kept them sleeping just long enough to think THIS night was the one where they wouldn't invade our bedroom
― brigadier pudding (DJP), Thursday, 5 December 2019 16:37 (four years ago) link
My kid annihilated my year and decade too, having a Premium family plan really makes these summaries kinda meaningless. According to my summary all I listen to is the Hamilton soundtrack, Marshmello, One Direction and "Flamingo" by Kero Kero Bonito.

I went through the embarrassment of not immediately recognizing my top artist of the decade lol. Klára Körmendi, thank you for your Satie.
― Le Bateau Ivre, Thursday, 5 December 2019 17:05 (four years ago) link
the majority of my top stuff is stuff my kids or wife listens to. LOL at my number 3 song being the Pink Panther theme by Henry Mancini, which my daughter was weirdly obsessed with for a while this summer.
Anyway, 1303 new artists, 86 countries, 51450 minutes
― silverfish, Thursday, 5 December 2019 17:19 (four years ago) link
2019 ain't nearly over yet, but:
844 new artists, 55 countries, 22534 minutes (a new peak, it's been about that level for each of the past 4 years but going up slightly year on year)
top 2019 artist completely skewed by the fact that I listened to nearly all of the Bobbie Gentry Girl from Chickasaw County box set once, one weekend
artist of the decade: Red Velvet (fair enough)
― Jeff W, Thursday, 5 December 2019 18:51 (four years ago) link
