Hi.  You guys like music, right?  No?  Ugh christ just fuck off then what is wrong with you goddammit forget this;;;;;;;;;;;;

no i do really
Oh.  Alright, the idea here is that we're gonna have a collaborative playlist.  We like music, we should share our music so that everyone else has more music and so we can all like music.  Cool, right?

yeah cool
What we are going to do is have a collab Spotify playlist.  To make sure everything stays varied and to keep from things getting messy, I've outlined the rules/guidelines below.  The way collab playlists work on Spotify, anyone with a link to the playlist can edit that playlist.  To avoid Problems, I've set up two playlists.  One will be the editable one that only people who have signed up to help will have a link to.  The other will be one that cannot be edited.  I will copy the songs from the editable one to the non-editable one myself.  This is the one that will be linked in this topic.

rules/guidelines?
There's a few guidelines to this that will help to keep the playlist fresh and whatnot.  Here they are:

• 2 songs per person per week - Gotta limit this or else the playlist could get far too huge.
• 2 weeks between artists - In an effort to get some variety, if you add a song by an artist wait two weeks before you add another song by that artist.
• No joke songs - Not that you can't add songs that are funny, but don't add pure joke songs.  If it's not something that someone would genuinely want to listen to as music, please don't go for it.
• Removing songs - Try not to remove songs.  If you do wish to remove a song, please add another song in its place.  Only remove songs you have added, not other people's songs.
  

At the end of each month, the playlist will be archived and a new playlist will be made.  For editors, the editable playlist will simply be emptied, so you will always be using the same link to add songs.  This way, we won't end up with a gigantic playlist that's impossible to sort through.

how do i help (i want to)!?
Send me a PM or shoot me a line on IRC.  Just get in touch with me and I will send you a link to the playlist.

spotify cause problem/is not available in my Area/songs are in some places but not others ? ? ?
Spotify does have issues with the fact that it is not available everywhere and that some songs are available in some countries but not in others.  I don't have a good solution to this.  If anyone knows a better way of doing collaborative playlists let me know, but as of right now this is the easiest way.  To try to help, I will be posting a full track list at the end of each month and you are welcome to seek out the music through whatever methods you prefer.  If you are desperate for some new tunez, check out this music tumblr a few of us here are running.

Feel free to use this topic to discuss the playlist, what songs you do and don't like, etc.!

Hey vf

Hey Vellfire, for some reason spotify just deleted the album those Ghana songs are from. So I added them again. I think we should have at most 2 songs per person for next time, this playlist is already pretty huge

Thanks for readding them, and yeah I agree I'm going to change it to 2.  I originally planned to do 2 but I wasn't expecting to get so many people on board so quickly!

I want to join as well. Looks like fun

I'll send you a link when I get back from class.

Oh I just realized it doesn't work on our country. oh well..

That is some straight up anti-SouthEast Asian prejudice right there :<

That's because Spotify is head of the curb and knows your all tarrorest ......

if you don't use spotify the terrorist win (!!)

I guess Canadians are terrorists because Spotify hates us too.

spotify is obviously fbi and make terrorists so that spotify would be block in our cuntry!!!
