Spiders (#720)

Ahoy,

I'm a bit late once more...

 

Last week in covers:

Most played artists:

• Taylor Swift : Research context. I had "Rad (Taylor's Version)" on my list for quite some time now. And the tracklist seemed ambitious.
  
• The Weeknd : Fan times.
• Paul Oakenfold : New album context. Sorry, but most of "Shine On" was rather disappointing to me.
  
• Gunna : Research context. Because of the success of his new album "DS4EVER" I got curious, but I could not enjoy his music. (DS stands for Drip Season.)
  
• Lady A : Fan times. I was listening to their fifth studio album "Golden" (2013).
  

Most played tracks:

• Bear's Den - Spiders : Fan times. Yay, a new album will come out in May. It's called "Blue Hours". :)
• Taylor Swift - Red (Taylor's Version) : I really like her reworked version.
  

Noteworthy:

• Blood Red Shoes : New album context. I really like "GHOSTS ON TAPE" because of its range of sounds.
• Bonobo : New album context. "Fragments" sounds okay.
  
• Duran Duran : I was giving their latest album "FUTURE PAST" another try. I still couldn't make out any highlight tracks, but as album these retro sounds work for me.
  
• Fickle Friends : New album context. "Are We Gonna Be Alright?" surprised me - I can recommend this one to all indie (pop) lovers.
  

Scrobble count:  181.100
