Definitely Grateful Dead shows

It’s the only music that pulls me out of context & quiets the noise in my head

[avoids calculating how many hours of GD shows are on media server] 😂

Back in the day, I used to listen to the same stuff over and over again out of necessity. Then internet and its endless music catalog allowed me to keep discovering new stuff all the time for years, to a point I would rarely listen to smth twice.

Now though, I seem to enjoy hearing the same stuff on repeat again. For the last year or so I've been mostly listening to my Shatta playlist (a type of dancehall from Martinique) all day.

I like my playlists to play in the order I created them, and my albums to play in the order that the artists created them.

Otherwise, I do like my music mixed up, however, but once in a while I run into a song that I can't put down.

Lately, it's been the album Swish by Joywave. It is a series of slight variations on a single song. I've used it during my daily walks for stimming:

@ashleyspencer @actuallyautistic when I was writing my master's thesis, I listened to Bruce Cockburn and Greg Brown all day every day. I went through a phase of listening to Portuguese fado music and medieval chants.
Now, I'm appreciating silence.

@ashleyspencer @actuallyautistic I've posted this radio station before...seems to be a favorite

"Schizoid Chillout" on whatever radio app you use and you may find it, otherwise the link below should work.

@ashleyspencer @actuallyautistic I listen to Genesis’s albums between 1971 to 1977 over and over, I never get bored and I’m always finding new things.

If I had to pick an area of knowledge I have, it’s this. :pg:

@ashleyspencer @actuallyautistic I change music a lot, but every now and then get fixed on something. Seems I've been a top listener of Moop Mama on Spotify in 2020, 2021 and 2022 even though I don't exactly know German 🤷
Music is important to me. It describes what I feel and think better than I can.

@ashleyspencer @actuallyautistic Yes I do :) It's usually video game music, or if there is something in particular that I'm in the mood for.
