Thought I’d post something a little different that could well see me shot down in flames! yes it’s a personal Spotify playlist… There’s of course nothing more diverse than people musical tastes, personally I’ve always been more into electronic music, for me it kinda fits with the Futuristic/Space/Sci-Fi ethic – but then I’m sure listening to Slayer whilst playing Doom or Quake works very well too – what ever float’s your boat!
So here’s my selection – I’m rubbish at defining music genre’s, my best guess it’s a kinda filmic / Cosmic Disco blend – anyway If you like pulsing and/or shimmering 70’s & 80’s Synth sounds you’ll probably appreciate it… Enjoy!
1. John Daly – Oceans
2. Edgar Frose – Specific Gravity of a Smile
3. Toby Tobias – The Feeling (John Daly Mix)
4. Quite Village – I Regret The Flower Power (Fragments of Fear)
5. Stefan Goldmann – Lunatic Fringe
6. Marianne Faithfull – Broken English
7. Lawrence – Along The Wire (Superpitcher Remix)
8. Fever Ray – Triangle Walks (Rex the Dog Remix)

*Note that you must have the Spotify App installed – I recommend signing up for Premium too – despite the hype Spotify is IMHO a decent service…

Hey Bonj,
cheers for the comment… sorry I’ve took ages to respond…
glad you liked the selection, a couple of other people left some nice comments but the Database got trashed and lost them… anyway yeah that Fever Ray track, I thought it’d be a good one to end on
she got such an amazing voice, and the lyrics are great -
This is cool too, Röyksopp – This Must Be It (Maxime Dangles Remix):
