He's a really nice guy and his twitter stream is a good laugh (if you use it of course)I don't use spotify so apologies if this link doesn't work but this album is great.

Old Gold Posted August 26, 2011 Report Share Posted August 26, 2011 has it not got a bit stricter about how you can listen to music or something?Only if you're flipping mental and use the free version, I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KarmaTsunami Posted August 26, 2011 Report Share Posted August 26, 2011 Yeah, it's something like ten hours of free music...is it a week? A month? It went down drastically anyway. Then there are those cunting adverts. But I realised I'm getting paid monthly now so it would be lunacy not to pay 4.99 a month and get rid of the time limit/ads.

KarmaTsunami Posted August 26, 2011 Report Share Posted August 26, 2011 This is just ace. Kind of shoe-gaze-pop-wave stuff. I reckon a fair few folk on here will enjoy it. Hearts by I Break Horses on SpotifyI reviewed a single from this album earlier this year. It's kind of disjointed but in a way that works. It's sparse in places, sounds like the soundtrack to a quirky french film in other places, and has rather lovely vocals threaded throughout.Excerpts by Ensemble on Spotify Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flights Posted August 27, 2011 Report Share Posted August 27, 2011 I did have a smartphone until it met the pavement I dont see why they trimmed the limits so much though. Surely the adverts paid for the licences? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soda Jerk Posted August 27, 2011 Report Share Posted August 27, 2011 I did have a smartphone until it met the pavement I dont see why they trimmed the limits so much though. Surely the adverts paid for the licences?Probably to make more people pay for it. 4.99 for unlimited use of unthinkable quantities of music is absolutely incredible. I remember the day they announced the changes in the useage, and tons of people took to Facebook and forums moaning about how much less free music they are getting, as if Spotify are some kind of horrible, music-hogging Nazi bastards. Pricks.I was never quite convinced by the digital age of music, and the thought of buying an mp3 still makes me wince. However, Spotify is the best thing to happen to music in a long time. I'd probably still pay for it if it was 20 a month, as I'd spend more than that on CD's anyway. A fiver is a colossal bargain.If people use the free one and don't use it much, then that's cool. It's the folk who use the free one and moan about the adverts and the limits that make me feel awfully stabby.I'm a bit gay for Spotify.

KarmaTsunami Posted August 28, 2011 Report Share Posted August 28, 2011 This could go in the rediscovery thread, but about once a year I go through a patch of listening to this album over and over again because it's just amazing.

Soda Jerk Posted August 29, 2011 Report Share Posted August 29, 2011 Right, you lot. Who is up for taking part in a Spotify playlist swap? Like a 21st century Mixtape Swapsies thingy whatsit. It'll be neat!I'm thinking the playlists should have a theme, like a year, or a particular city/country or whatever you want, as long as it's consistent, and not just "America" or "Songs what I like". You can pick your own theme. Limit to 12 tracks, so it doesn't go on forever.If you want in, say so, and I'll match people up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paranoid Android Posted August 30, 2011 Report Share Posted August 30, 2011 It's about time someone got of their arse and organised this thing I was meant to do months ago.....I'm in, but I'm not sure about the theme idea. I'm rubbish enough with mixes as it is, I don't need it made more difficult. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
