Let's have another good week everyone
being the making playlists kind of queer person is nice, tho I used to think everyone spent hours meticulously crafting playlists
Folks used to sit by their radio waiting to cue up the tape deck to make mixtapes of their favorite songs off the radio. Retvrn!
DAE drink from the hose growing up??? 1 like=1 agree xD
spoiler
My shitty old car still has a tape deck lmao I'm not bullying if that wasn't clear
I still drink from the hose, thank you very much.
Can't remember drinking much from the hose growing up, but did drink out of a spigot on the side of a building once as an adult. Reminder to stay hydrated :P
I used to spend hours making mixtapes
Though I don't do the same with playlists, I prefer listening to albums instead
Does curating a 2000 song long favourites playlist that I exclusively listen to on shuffle count
I mean I've made playlists with specific roles too before but only for like, RPG campaigns and such
definitely! I have some very long playlists too. I like the challenge of getting the flow right for shorter ones and definitely like making them for people too
As someone who sucks at making playlists.... How do you¹ make a good playlist? (Part of my problem is that I dont listen to a lot of music anymore, but im working on changing that!)
¹specifically you, not the general you. Sorry i realized after commenting that my tone and inflection is not, in fact, carried through text 😅
hmm I definitely start with a theme in mind. sometimes it's just a pile of new music for the month, sometimes channeling a certain vibe. I really like making playlists flow like an album too, so that's sometimes my only goal
as far as new music, I follow a lot of artist on soundcloud and spotify and routinely check for recommended if you like artists. it is one of those things where not paying attention for a month means suddenly you've missed a lot of releases, be it bigger releases or even interesting throwaways. one thing I like doing on spotify is finding a song I like and going to song radio. that brings up a lot of similar artists that I wouldn't have found otherwise
Ooh ok, thank you! I havent actively followed an artist since i was in HS, i guess i need to go back to that lol
I should try doing that instead of dumping everything into one big playlist of music I like.
I meticulously craft playlists and then don’t listen to them.
