>1) What is your primary source of music? Do you use a >streaming app, multiple streaming apps? Still rocking a >personal library? Still doing CDs? Cassettes?
Spotify primarily, Soundcloud to put me on to newer and more obscure stuff. I still buy vinyl which really only gets spun on my home system.
>2) Do you usually listen to playlists? Are they based on an >artist/ several artists or more of a mood? Are they playlists >you made, where you individually picked out all the songs on >the playlist? Do you prefer to listen to music in blocks of >similar songs, gangsta rap hour, new jack swing, late 90's boy >bands, etc or shuffle and mix it up as much as possible?
I mostly listen to playlists. I ONLY listen to playlists I create, never Spotify produced ones. I don't have any artist-based playlist. They are all either based on genre or some other commonality (like, I have a DJ Premier playlist and an Alchemist playlist, etc).
>3) Do you listen to whole albums often? Mostly new or older?
As I'm usually listening to playlists, I'm not peeping full albums as much but when I am it's mostly older stuff simply because newer music doesn't have as many quality albums.
>4) How do you discover new music?
I use Spotify and Soundcloud. I listen to almost everything that comes out on SpotifIy's New Releases list. If I find something I like from an artist I haven't heard before, then I even look at the related artists to see if there's new stuff there. I also follow alot of key new music accounts on Soundcloud, so it's easy to find new songs by simply scrolling my Soundcloud timeline. I also follow a lot of music sites and blogs on Twitter so I see stuff there. I have friends that are as into music as I am and put me on to stuff.
>5) What's your primary hardware set up for music? Phone and >earbuds/headphones? Car? Home stereo set up? Bluetooth >speakers? Internal phone speaker?
My primary set-up is my phone. I have bluetooth earbuds if I'm laying the bed and want to hear music. We have a bluetooth speaker in our bathroom and my stereo receiver in the living room has bluetooth. I have bluetooth audio in my car so having my phone is pretty much all I need. I also keep my laptop next to where I sit at home so I always have that for audio and then sometimes I connect YouTube to the XBox and we peep videos or whatever.
