That is why I know which 10 CDs I listened to more than any other in 2002: 1. Autechre - Peel Session 2. Autechre - LP5 3. Boards Of Canada - Music Has The Right To Children 4. Autechre - EP7 5. Autechre - Confield 6. Autechre - Peel Session 2 7. Godspeed You Black Emperor! - f#a#infinity 8. Boards Of Canada - In A Beautiful Place Out In The Country 9. Aphex Twin - Richard D. James 10. Autechre - Envane What's worse, I can also tell you I listened to 394 of my CDs during the year, with a total of 2276 individual listenings. Fear the man with time on his hands and a spreadsheet. |

I think it'd be kinda cool to have that sort of data! |

i think it'd be rather useless to have that sort of data |

I take it you're an Autechre fan;) |

It all stems from being useless at trying to pick something to listen to. I bunged all the CDs on a spreadsheet and randomly sort them, then choose one from the first 10, makes my life a lot easier. It was just a step from that to recording how many times they were listened to. It's also a good way to filter out stuff that's fallen from favour, anything that hasn't been listened to for over a year gets cut from the playlist. |

Well DUH, u should BROADEn your HORIZON a bit, there is more IDM out there than just AUTECHRE................ |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I have much, much more IDM than just Autechre. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
and what about the world of music beyond "IDM".. . tons of music from unknown genres better than "IDM". .. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I've got loads of the too :P Another stat: I have 694 CDs. |
||||||||

the=that |

It would be a lot easier if you just got the Winamp plugin that tracks the songs you listen to and sorts them by popularity. Assuming you use Winamp. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Hmmm... yeah, what is that called? If it exists... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Doesn't the new version of Windows Media Player do things like that... and even compiles a list of songs you play at night, etc. ? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
No, I listen to all my CDs through hi-fi equipment. I used to listen to music on the PC back in the Napster days, but now I buy all my music it's all through the hi-fi. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
ok, here's my question.... how do you FOR CERTAIN that that number is EXACTLY correct? did you count? im curious.... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Sorry man, there is nothing better than IDM or electronic music ! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Which number? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
listenings> those numbers |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Oh shit, I gots to get me that. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|

||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Yeah, but WE NEED A NAME! :-| I want it too! |
||||||||
|

I seem to have lost it over the last few years of upgrades (I don't use Winamp anymore). I think it was called "hitlist." |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I record the number of plays of each CD on the spreadsheet, if you sort by number of plays you can see how many have been listened to. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
so you DID keep track, thats what i was wondering... i thought maybe you were putting one over on everyone |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Ahhh, I see :) I can even tell you how many times a particular CD was listened to in any given month, useful shit like that :P |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
°_° i have no life either, but i don't do stuff like that! i'm too lazy for :) and it would make me nervous for some half unknown reason. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Seeing as I consider myself exceptionally lazy you must be *stunningly* lazy. I pity you, your poor sad fool ;) |

What defines a "life"? "to have a life"? Just curious... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah you offended me |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|

||||||||
|
|

|
|

||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I had my music spreadsheeted, but I lost it in a format and can't be bothered writing everything out again |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
for those who say that hey dont have a life: you do have a life, but maybe you dont use it as you would like to, cos if you like what you are doing then... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
most people perceive a "life" as going out with friends and being socially active, however I think that most of these people are just as lost as people that "don't" go around and socialise |
