We are almost hitting the middle part of the year, it is week 25 of this journey and what a journey it is! This week, outside of the random tracks, I've went on a bit of a deep dive back into the back catalogue of We Are Scientists. An American Indie band who really have a British feel to their sound, We Are Scientists are going to be coming back to the UK later in the year, playing their first album "With Love & Squalor" in full. It has made a few people very excited, me included, and I am hoping to get to see them. They are a band which I feel need to be shown a lot more love, especially their last four albums ("Megaplex" (my favourite), "Huffy", "Lobes", and "Qualifying Miles"). Back when I was writing for Bearded Gentlemen Music, I wrote an article about them (link here), I think I need to start writing again, just need a starting subject...
Anyway, enough of that and let's talk about this! And by this I mean playing ten songs a day, randomly, and posting the results! So, as always, how in the blue hell-scape of space did we get here? At the start of the year on Threads (or possibly on Bluesky), I started to see people posting random 10 songs for the day. Now, with lists being my sort of thing and finally having the itch to blog again, I thought "lets do this". My aim is to try to post at least one list of songs per day, but as has happened, sometimes I've had to do a few post together. If you want to follow the lists as they are posted, that is happening on my Bluesky & Threads accounts, and once a week I am compiling into this blog/playlist.
For full disclosure, I did miss a couple of these days, so I went to my iTunes/YouTube and looked at what I had played on the days missed. Also, when it comes to the playlists I have found that sometimes that track I played is not available. In those cases, I've added a substitute track, which I will note when posting. Also, I'm using Spotify. It is the only streaming service I am used to, I am also looking into changing as Spotify sucks and their owner is a bad egg. Much like the first post, this post and others might be edited for a new playlist provider.
