8. "i listen while i'm working. i use Spotify solely..." In response to Reply # 6
so i go thru their New Music Friday list first, favorite any songs i like on there and if there's a song or artist that interests me i check to see if the song on the New Music Friday playlist is a single or an album. if it's from an album, i favorite the album.
once i go thru their New Music Friday list I go thru their lists that they curate for me and favorite anything from those.
once that's done, i go back to my favorite albums and check out the albums i've favorite'd from that week.
if they don't rate as an album, i just un-favorite them.
it's 10am where i'm at and i've already gone thru all the playlists and i'm listening to my 3rd full album of the day all while busting out spreadsheets. lol.
if im doing real work i cant listen to an album. i will stop paying attention and forget to like a song or three. managing a playlist and spreadsheet for this new music takes up more effort than it should. limits me to only check out albums that i think i might like or that are big names. gotta reconsider how im going about this.

(he says as he watches two soccer games while knocking out Excel macros)
j/p I know it's just about having a process and being locked-in work-wise. My new thing for making sure I don't just skim albums is that if I like something I will add the FLAC to my Plex library. Spotify is just for testing/casual purposes for me

15. "my process is definitely work" In response to Reply # 11
i think thats why i limit how much i listen to. if im going to listen to a new project then i want to listen all the way through and keep track of my ratings for each song.
i still havent listened to anything that released last week because i havent had time to sit down to do so.
i do want to add some casual listening in the hopes of discovering new music worth listening to. right now im just hoping the ones already on my radar end up being good.
typically i will listen to new albums on fridays in a controlled manner. then the rest of the week i just shuffle the playlist with the new music so i dont have to be focused on it. every few weeks i will listen in a controlled manner again and reevaluate my ratings.
13. "still ain't got to peep all these, but i give the following the thumbs u..." In response to Reply # 4
>>joan - cloudy - 3/6 - this is like some shit that BSB/NSYNC would have made in 2001, but really solid.
>>Aminé - Limbo - 14/14 - not the biggest fan of his just cuz i don't follow, but this whole project is nice with some real stand out joints on it.
>>GASHI - 1984 - 16/16 - i like GASHI a lot. i feel like he's just throwing stuff at the wall for years to see what sticks. this feels like his most complete project as being a coherent piece of art.
>>Glass Animals - Dreamland - 17/17 - great fucking electro pop album, period.
>>Paloma Ford - X Tapes - 7/7 - really really nice R&B EP
>>Tkay Maidza - Last Year Was Weird, Vol. 2 - 3/8 - super dope, super dope. just some cool like, funky R&B/hip hop/dance shit put in a blender.
>>Victoria Monét - Jaguar - 9/9- HARD AF. SO GOOD.
a freebie: peep this dude Elliot Trent's EP. really nice R&B.

12. "Amine a fool for the sequencing on this. dope album" In response to Reply # 1
i thought that Caroline song was wack as hell back when it was out so i didnt check out his first album
singles for this one were pretty good so i gave it a shot and i liked it.
but somebody should've tapped him on the shoulder when he decided to put Becky (basically an apology for loving white women bc thats what he grew up around) on this album after a song about how much he loves his Eritrean mother.
live your truth, but i know his black female fanbase is hurt rn off this.
18. "the amine is real good" In response to Reply # 12
i wasnt sure what to expect. i did get bored listening to it but i cant really say there was anything bad. i think i might just not be a fan. i feel like it wont have a lot of replay value for me. we will see.
definitely going to check out the nas single. ive never listened to kids, might as well get to that. as far as new albums i think only boldy james and dave east will be checked out.

27. "RE: how can you tell how many are left?" In response to Reply # 26
If you look at the code for the webpage (with Firefox it's right mouse click and then View Page Source) you can find it sometimes. The easiest instances are if you search the code for the word "inventory." In this case the third search results shows a string of text that reads:
"inventory_quantity":1
which should mean there's only one left. The number has been dropping steadily since I first accessed the page about an hour ago.
And as I'm typing this has dropped to 0 and with the product listing now showing as sold out.
A caveat however is that sometimes the number will increase again as it approaches 0 so sometimes it's not completely accurate. It's at least a good guess and can show how fast it's selling.
34. "Gordon Koang - Unity" In response to Reply # 21
on his 11th album, Koang expresses his feelings towards the recent civil war in his home country, South Sudan. Unity depicts the darkness and hope while integrating traditional Nuer instruments and rhythms.

42. "haven't thought of her in a while but the Toni Braxton is pretty good" In response to Reply # 41
The mixing is a bit flat IMO but there are some good singles on there (the Missy Elliott joint low-key pops) and while the ballads don't work as well the album is just 35' with no clear skippables
Also Kelly Lee Owens - Inner Song is so good. Ethereal techno mixed in with punchy beats. I didn't think Lianne La Havas' Weird Fishes/Arpeggi cover would ever be matched but just two month later and we have another stunning version on here
