| Help Doc Build a Playlist for a Restaurant
'sup, Sput? My girlfriend works as a manager at a hip lil local eatery, and I've been killing time by making playlists for it. The one I'm working on rn I'm calling Volumetric Shit Compressor, after the excellent Disco Elysium, and what I'm going for is an unlikely if bizarrely arranged open marriage of alternative rock, (sophisti)pop, and radio standards. Maybe there are some deviations from that vision. I've been tinkering with this playlist off and on, but I want to put it to bed. Here is what I have so far. I'm super open to suggestions (both about its current state as well as what's to come), and my goal is 30 songs with a 7-second crossfade. Thanks so much! | | 1 | Donald Fagen

05.14.21 | I was surprised to hear not just one but TWO Busta Rhymes songs in a row while at my graduation dinner nearly ten years ago ("It's a Party" followed by "Turn It Up," the latter in the version that was on the Can't Hardly Wait soundtrack that sampled the Knight Rider theme, not the album version from When Disaster Strikes with the Al Green sample).
Don't know why I mentioned this, but still a fond memory... | DocSportello
05.14.21 | The music that soundtracks "formative" moments can do strange and wonderful things to ya, man | JohnnyoftheWell

I'll admit part of the reason I made this list was so I could find new jams, and y'all are delivering | ArsMoriendi
05.14.21 | if MGMT is acceptable, kick things up a notch is "Heimdalsgate Like a Promethean Curse" by of Montreal | ArsMoriendi
05.14.21 | Also "Make It Known" by Foxygen should work too |
