    Just tried to get Hey Google to play Ys by Joanna Newsom cos I thought it would be nice background music while I blasted through a mindless hour but turns out she’s not on Spotify. FFS.

    So I’ve downloaded it illegally like a mad lad. Doesn’t quite fit in with the rest of my “not on Spotify so in my iPhone music library” music which is obscene metal Kettle Cadaver and GG Allin, or live Elliott Smith bootlegs.

    Good choice. Probably the best album of all time.

    Can’t believe it was out in 2006. I’ve probably not listened to it for 10 years tbh.

    Will probably get some classic Beirut on tomorrow, to keep with the theme.

    I actually only really like the bit with the duet with Bill Callahan that starts about thirteen and a half minutes through Only Skin. The rest is just filler.

    I had been listening to MF Doom's Special Herbs compilations but then came across a 'landfill indie' playlist on spotify and now feel old as fuck.

    Colleen is the star of that EP. Just as good as anything on Ys but I guess it didn't really fit the brief.

    Spotify says this is my most listened to song of the year, and what a song it is.

    Dylan's take 2 version of 'You're a Big Girl Now' was my number one. Played it constantly during the first lockdown to the extent that I'll always associate the two in my mind. Proper beauty of a thing.

    Fuck do I love the Spotify insights

    Top track was surprisingly Four Tet's Baby. 100 streams after it first being played on 25th Jan.

    First streamed Wildfires before it hit 50k, just call me Gilles Peterson

    Top artists were Half man half biscuit, Bob Dylan and Taylor Swift. An unlikely conglomerate.

    Top artists were Julian Cope, Michael Kiwanuka, Dan Deacon, The Drones and Ween. Top track is Boredom by The Drones (great song), but even that only has 15 plays or so. I think I'll make it a New Year's resolution to seek out more new music, as most artists I'm listening to nowadays I've known for some time. Doesn't help that Spotify's recommended artists and radios are pretty useless.

    Tried that a couple of times, never found anything I really liked. Maybe I'll give it another go. Maybe I'm also just starting to become an old man who only likes the music from his youth.

    A combination of getting into podcasts, and soon the Young Bucks audiobook, means my music intake has drastically decreased. I only really listen to music when doing the dishes now, so like 10 mins a day tops.

    I still get two hours out of my ipod at work but they definitely see more podcasts than actual songs. I should reset most played on my iTunes. It's still Tracy Jacks. I can't recall the last time I played that. By the looks of it, it's sorted alphabetically.

    James said it so I’d take the music and musician part very loosely.

    What I mean was Sophie who or is it a Prince type thing? Could have been Sophie Ellis Bextor for all knew.

    Sophie was a visionary of electronic music. Unlike a lot of producers she crafted every sound herself and her music had this unique organic quality.

    Her only full length album is only 38 minutes long but is so jam packed full of ideas. Proper mind-expanding shit. I've often thought that I can't wait to see what she does next, and it's so unfair that we won't get to find out.

    More than anything her music was just downright outrageous amounts of fun.

    I always felt an odd sense of pride that she was Glaswegian. There are bits of her music like the synth break half way through Ponyboy that just scream 2am at Subclub to me, pure joy.

    "True to her spirituality she had climbed up to watch the full moon and slipped and fell," they posted online. "She will always be here with us."
    The full moon? A thing that you can see regularly each month from ground level or safely inside your house?

    I haven't seen any evidence that the UK's terrible recent Eurovision record is to do with Brexit. The problem is that the UK doesn't give a shit about doing well, or put any effort into doing so. Every bottom five finish has been thoroughly deserved.

    This year's entry, while absolutely awful, probably has greater potential than any UK entry in a while. We'll see.

    Awesome. I love how they've overlaid ambient outside sounds over what I assume are studio quality vocals.
