im so copying this idea.

 

despite it basically what i was doing with my chart anyway.

 

lo-fi charts ftw. who needs numbers or chart runs or new releases.

DO IT

 

I basically decided to make this as easy for myself as possible lawlz. I spent way too much time deciding what would be #1 etcetc. This is far easier.

well its the next step of evolution for me, seeing as my chart gradually expanded and then i gradually started hearing less new music, and then i started trying to even out my chart between new releases/new songs put on the web/old songs etc, and it took me forever, and then it cba with it anymore and didnt have the time, so i just started doing simple top ten's loosely based on my last.fm. i also feel like making the playlist real to listen to throughout a week and making the art for it.

I would love to make a legit playlist out of mine, but I really doubt most of Buzzjack would care sadly, and I just don't really have the time. I honestly just do this to a) introduce the few indie fans on BJ to some new traxxx and b ) so I have a list of songs / albums to look at when doing my year end. Though I am planning on starting a blog with my friend, wa-hooo. Might give me inspiration to make this a real thing.

 

Looking forward to yours. ;o

A playlist constructed perfectly for a stripper with a drug problem.
i'll do mine tomorrow probaly. I should be revising right now see. by make a playlist, I didnt mean to upload, I just meant putting all the songs in a playlist for I to listen to. I'll look forward to your blog, i have tried making a music blog a few times but i always get bored after a while and also no one cared lol.

I had this in mind.

Oh lawlz, I actually do that with this in my iTunes. And anytime I hear a new song I want to put in it, I just put it in my iTunes playlist and delete / rearrange stuff when I do the chart. Woo. ;o

 

I dunno how the blog thing will work out LOL. We shall see. I follow a ton of them and in general know how to start getting viewers but it's a long process.

These are which ones I know/like:

 

alicia keys (ft. beyoncé) "put it in a love song" *

marina and the diamonds "hollywood"

owen pallett "e is for estranged"

owen pallett "lewis takes off his shirt"

the drums "i felt stupid"

yeasayer "ambling amp"

owen pallett "heartland"

yeasayer "odd blood"

 

Don't know that many as you can see (:() but from those I know, I like all of them!

Anything you could recommend me? I think you probably know my taste pretty much now.

I still haven't got round to downloading 'Bitte Orca', I've been meaning to for ages!

Hrmzz. I'd recommend Broken Bells - The High Road and Laura Veirs - July Flame. ;o Good stuff and I think you'll dig. Do you like the Shins? Broken Bells is a side project of the lead singer.

Thank youu, I'll give them both a listen.

And yes, I love the Shins, didn't know about Broken Bells at all though (I can't be that big a fan then really!), so I'll definitely be downloading some of them.

:o If you're ever interested in hearing more, just ask me for recommendations haha. Though I'm glad you did listen to all of them, haha, I just bet some of the songs did not appeal to you whatsoever. I definitely would have recommended White Hinterland; she's amazing. Icarus is very Lykke Li-ish.

Yeah, some definitely weren't my sort of thing :lol: but I'm always looking out for new music and looking to broaden what I listen to and seeing as I'd only heard two of these beforehand I thought it seemed like a good sort of thing to spend some time looking at. I can't say I'd heard of White Hinterland before but will try to spend some time looking into her other material - any recommendations of where to start?

White Hinterland - Icarus is where it's at :wub: Great song. Any others worth listening to?

Icarus is easily the best I've heard from her; she did a really nice cover of My Love by Justin Timberlake as well.

Glad you like it. ;o Hmm, since you're into Joanna Newsom who writes really epic, long songs, you could always give Colouring of Pidgeons a shot. You'd probably like Laura Veirs too, really great folk artist. Owen Pallett's latest has been compared to Ys, as well, though it's very different.

:o Loving Laura Veirs, I've just downloaded her latest album off of Raven Marching Band for £5, what a bargain :P

Glad you like it. :wub: I love Wide-Eyed, Legless. Probably my favorite track on the album.
