memetic dancing*

ok, so i know i recently did a meme thing. and in it i tagged age. well, instead of doing that meme, he flipped it, made his own thing up and tagged me back. crafty little bastard :)

so, the aim is to track your year, based on what you've been listening to - or at least what new stuff you've added to your itunes in the last 12 months:

File
New Smart Playlist
Match the following rule
Date Added
Is After
01/01/08
Limit to 30
Selected by most played often
Live Updating

funnily enough, i didn't actually add a whole bunch of new music this year. this year, my music was quite frugal, mostly nostalgic, full of mix-tape goodness and blip.fm love. a bit of an insight into the kinds of comfort i sought this year.

also interesting to note (well, interesting to me) that my music taste was largely rated on what sounds good while riding a bike. i listen to a lot of music while riding, even though i usually only get to hear about 5 songs in a trip. i discovered the joy of ipod's on-the-go playlists in the last month and that, kids, is where your insight is..

anyway, below is a snapshote of how my year looked, itunes-wise. note the top song. heh.

and to add to the mix, here's my blip playlist.

sending it back the other way, i'd love to see the lists of:
miss jones - 'cos that girl is a fiend when it comes to fine taste
stan j - his midday tweets are already on fire, and
marcus - the blip cast he did during the year was amazing and anyway, he just rocks.
