[deFacto please, you bastards]

Who be next?

[deFacto please, you bastards]

Same, D. Tried to satisfy my own tastes which are varied but mainstream on the whole with a couple of little belters I hope the crowd might like. Just putting them into order now and found a gap so sorting a bit of acid jazz out as we speak to fill it

Putting them now in a the proper order is driving me nuts 

[Djozer]

Bit busy and cant think of my last song (unless we're continuing the draft...), so please skip me for a couple hours.

[Trendisnotdestiny]

Next Pick? 

So I guess its Tubby and then the man, the myth, the legend! ----> Chakan

[tubby]

Ok give me a minute.

[Sheer Magnetism]

Final lineup: https://open.spotify.com/user/positivebleeding/playlist/5YK1lzSROT05dVNpMBA9Dn?si=oCHezcJdRgyFbwshBXFeJQ

Some collections of music evoke beauty, tranquility and the subtle sweetness and pain of the human experience. This has all that, but it's also balls-out music with huge drums and guitar/bass/synth/harmonica riffs meant to be played with the volume up to 11. If this doesn't hype you up when you're getting ready to go out on a weekend, nothing will.

Quicksilver Messenger Service - Who Do You Love (1969)
AC/DC - Thunderstruck (1990)
Daft Punk - Harder Better Faster Stronger (2001)
Janelle Monae feat. Saul Williams - Dance or Die (2010)
Janet Jackson - Rhythm Nation (1989)
Disclosure and Aluna George - White Noise (2013)
Kylie Minogue - Boombox (LA Riots remix) (2008)
Talking Heads - Once In a Lifetime (1980)
Refused - New Noise (1998)
Led Zeppelin - When the Levee Breaks (1971)

[Chakan]

I'll pick now. Gimme a minute.

[tubby]

Starts off poppy, then drifts into melancholy before kicking back into the pop.  Then one last slice of melancholy that leads into the full on attack of the Beasties and White Stripes before REM close things out appropriately.

You Can't Hurry Love - The Supremes / 1960s
Go Your Own Way - Fleetwood Mac / 1970s
Love Will Tear Us Apart - Joy Division / 1980s
Seasons (Waiting On You) - Future Islands / 2010s
La Bamba - Ritchie Valens / 1950s
California Dreamin' - The Mamas And The Papas / 1960s
No Children - The Mountain Goats / 2000s
Sabotage - The Beastie Boys / 1990s
Fell In Love With A Girl - The White Stripes / 2000s
It's The End Of The World As We Know It (And I Feel Fine) - REM / 1980s

Uh... I like pop and melancholy.

[Hazell]

By the way, anyone can change their picks if they want one we're all done.

[deFacto please, you bastards]

This playlist looks to encapsulate a story of a dreamer going to the abyss is back, through the full cycle of the hero’s journey. Starting with our hero deacribing to his love dreams of stardom and bright lights, before fading through the onset of addiction into a dark place, only to be resurrected through the love and devotion of his partner, leading to him tackling his issues, emancipating himself from mental slavery, opening his mind to new ideas and beginnings.

Or it’s a banging set of tunes. Whatever floats your boat.
