I tried last.fm a few weeks ago and quickly concluded that sharing my music listening habits with the public was a bad idea, despite openly sharing things like photographs. I have an irrational and vociferous response to people when they say to me: “You listen to that??”.
I’d still like to experiment with sharing music that I like, but God help the first person who questions my taste. I’ll hold off on the electronic music to start with in the hope of achieving wider interest. This batch of tracks were all things I liked from the KCRW Top Tune podcast.
These links all point at the Amazon MP3 page for the track, in an attempt to help encourage the uptake of DRM-free music. Amazon only samples 30 seconds, but I’m sure you can find the full tracks if you want to. Otherwise, you can give me $0.99 worth of trust. When people link to things via affiliate programs that always makes me a bit queasy, so none of these links make me money. Comments such as, “I heard that 6 months ago” or “That’s too mainstream/obscure” are really not useful and will be filed in my shoe after I extract it from your face.
Is 5 tracks too many or too few, or just right?
n.b. Yes, I stole the title from Ninja Tune.
