I only now understand what I missed about music in all the years I let algorithms decide on what I listen to.

Struggling with music selfhosting

Published on in ✍️ Posts

I mentioned in my last monthly review that I’m currently switching from Deezer (my streaming alternative after the previous cheap YouTube Premium trick stopped working) to a self hosted music setup.

My music listening is inconsistent. I don’t listen to much music, sometimes weeks without any music streaming at all. And when I do, I often listen to some automatic playlists with recommendations from YouTube. I don’t have any specific artists I always listen too. Furthermore, I don’t even have a specific genre I like the most, often it’s something electronic.

However, it appears that I listened to a lot of ambient or atmospheric electronic music lately. One artist popping up in my automatic playlists that I like quite a bit, is The Ambientalist (YouTube | Bandcamp).

Documenting it here on my blog, to maybe find it again in a few years and remember back. 🎧

Sometimes things happen that you did not expect: You hear a song, you really like it, you research who made it, and you find out that person lives in the same town as you: AK – Discovery.

Some songs I recently enjoyed:

To post something again, here are three songs I’m currently really enjoying:

If you know songs that are in the same musical direction, feel free to share. 😀

About listening to music

Published on in 💭 Thoughts

Sometimes I like to listen to music, I listen to a song, which gives me a good feeling, then another and another. I feel really good, sometimes I could even dance, although I don’t really like dancing.

Hi-Fi!

Published on in 💭 Thoughts

Deezer announced today that it is raising prices in Germany and Austria for new customers. Premium now costs 1€ more. But (for new customers) Premium also includes Hi-Fi directly.

One year with Deezer

Published on in ✍️ Posts

It’s been about one year since I switched to Deezer. Yes, I switched before Spotify became uncool! 😁 So, how happy am I with Deezer today?
