the new Jessica Pratt record is so good. Can't recommend it enough. The songs that don't jump out initially do so over a few listens.

free / name your price on bandcamp. really nice guitar work. Chile seemed to a late comer to punk (90s??) but seems to have a big scene full of good bands for decades now.

I paid for this just to see if a faulty bank app would stop transaction.
Bandcamp home page posts all the recent purchases scrolling across - about 90 seconds after my purchase of the B.S. demo it scrolled across screen. Three purchases before that was a PARANOID VISIONS record. I noticed two different people buying SHELLAC stuff. Loads of things i never heard of then the odd well known thing and then something I'd like such as WOLF EYES & JOHN WEISE

Shellac are on the cover of this month's Wire magazine which went to press before Steve Albini died.

 

[GARYXKNIFEDX]

I would imagine there was a fair bit already scheduled before he died.

When did Shellac ( and Big Black) go back on Spotify?

I think it was the same day the new album came out

 

[nuke terrorist]

I only got (finally) Spotify this month.
Yeah - I see why people like it:
Free, extremely few adverts compared to YouTube, can play in background on phone and it is generally very user friendly.

Lists make it easy to investigate genres - listening to Congolese Lingala* mixes today + other Soukous stuff which folks at an Africa Day event were playing today. (Lingala is language spoken by 8 million folks).
Knew stuff like Papa Wemba already through John Peel but now know a lot more. Also got some great suggestions on Turkish psych artists I didn't know. SoundCloud do mixes like this as well.

But I've got some really predictable suggestions in genres I know well and the contemporary suggestions I get are nearly all boring and bland - so far.

Paid or free version?


I've only ever used the paid one. I get the impression the free one is shit.

I use very little of the suggestions from Spotify.
If I did use them I'd be listening to an awful lot of music I don't like

How do you know though

 

[GARYXKNIFEDX]

Because of the times I did look

Free version - so far I have encountered almost no adverts.
The issue is occasionally things I didn't pick start playing automatically and they tend to be not great.

Sounds like UTm's 'one time I didn't like it so I've ruled out the whole thing for like' approach to me. The various discovery bots are how I've found loads of amazing stuff tbh.

 

[GARYXKNIFEDX]

When I was looking at the suggestions,I'd get offered new releases that were 2+ years old and well known bands that I have known I don't like for a very long time. I'll occasionally dip in and find no change.

Definitely not one and done.

hope you like AI created music. Seems its all over spotify.
