You can listen through a lot of the songs I liked on Spotify, YouTube & SoundCloud. And I share a lot of playlists and music artists I love.

You can also see my most listened to artists, songs and albums alongside my yearly music stats tracked with last.fm. And here are my Spotify stats together with the song I am listening to now.

Notes

• ​Today in music theory, I learned that chords can use different octaves. It's painfully obvious when you think about it, but for some reason it never occurred to me.​

• ​If you buy an album from Bandcamp, it's around the financial equivalent to the artist of you streaming their music every day for 3 years.​
