It's just FOMO, I know.
My friends are all posting their Spotify albums and artists of the year - and I'm sitting here thinking, "But I don't use Spotify." My bottom lip pokes out a little and quivers.
You can find out a lot about people from what their music choices.
Ed Sheeran and Adele? How are we friends?
Obscure ska - well yes, please introduce me.
80's rock - hello, sista!
Naughties pop. Yeah well...
Hip hop and R&B - can somebody please explain the difference.
Anything off my radar - well please tell me about your music choices - I like learning about new music.
I miss my old colleague who used to put strange things my way. I introduced him to Post Modern Jukebox and Alt-J, he put Hazmat Modine and Jolie Holland on my playlists.
We both liked working to Jann Teirsen and Ludovico Enaudi.
I'm sure if I had a Spotify list my most played album list would look something like this:
- The Pixies - Doolittle or Surfer Rosa
- Alt-J - An Awesome Wave
- Simon and Garfunkel - Bridge Over Troubled Water
- Hoodoo Gurus - Stoneage Romeos
- Arctic Monkeys - Whatever People Say I Am, That's What I'm Not
- Goo Goo Muck by the Cramps
- The Pixies - Nimrod's Son
- Mental As Anything - Berserk Warriors
- Harry Nilsson - Coconut
- Nickelback - This Is How You Remind Me
I don't mind Nickelback. So, shoot me...
Music is cyclical and personal and fun.
I still sort of wish I had a Spotify account. If you're wondering where I source my music - it's either Youtube or Apple Music. Inferior choices? Probably, but it does the job.
