I hope to get the rest of the running orders sorted this week, and hopefully add a couple more of the smaller stages. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brave Sir Robin Posted June 12, 2016 Author Report Share Posted June 12, 2016 Pussy Parlure now in running order on the Glastonbury 2016 playlist, about 2/3 down, from Eva Lazarus to the one and only Sultan of the Disco. Some interesting funk and soul stuff in there as usual. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beerqueen Posted June 12, 2016 Report Share Posted June 12, 2016 Probably a silly question but when I play the playlist through my Amazon Firestick on the TV on shuffle, it only seems to be shuffling the main stages - e.g. I've had Editors, James, Rokia Traore, ZZ Top, Coldplay, Foals, but nothing from the smaller stages. But it is shuffling i.e only getting one from each artist so I can't think what it's doing! Any explanation that anyone can think of?

I guess the only thing that could have happened would be if for some reason it had only loaded or recognised the first x number of songs rather than the whole list, but I'd be surprised. I expect it's just randomly shuffling. Sometimes you will inevitably get more from one part of the list than another. Glad you're making use of it.

I expect it's just randomly shuffling. Sometimes you will inevitably get more from one part of the list than another. Glad you're making use of it. Oh God, am I making use of it! Every time I get in the car, any time I'm at home doing something in one room (I don't have fancy stuff that sends it all round the house), at the gym, at work etc etc. After posting yesterday, I looked further and it's all there - all 2,000+ tracks and I could manually select any. And then it would shuffle forward and back to within about 5 artists - so it went something like Anteros, New Order, Newton Faulkner, Anteros again, Bear's Den, Newton Faulkner again, Jamie Lawson, Beautiful South, back to Newton Faulkner etc. I googled to see if I could find an answer and just found a theory that Amazon don't really want you to use Spotify as they have their own streaming service so haven't set up the app properly. So I gave up and used my Now box, which shuffled perfectly. Thanks again - I love playlist time! I won't be at the meet as I don't get there til Thursday (boo!) but if I can identify you any time from then on, you definitely deserve a beer or three!

Brave Sir Robin Posted June 13, 2016 Author Report Share Posted June 13, 2016 Good to hear, my fair @Beerqueen! If you're not at the meet I doubt you'll be able to identify me, apart from perhaps the sound of coconuts... The Blues and the Sonic Heds Party now in running order on the playlist (insofar as they weren't already listed elsewhere and have tracks on Spotify).

Brave Sir Robin Posted June 13, 2016 Author Report Share Posted June 13, 2016 Added BBC Introducing lineup to the Glastonbury 2016 playlist. About 2/3 down, from Rocky Nti to The Bay Rays. Still going through them but some very interesting descriptions. So far my picks are Brighton electronica duo Sea Bed, and the warm & funky 70s meets Britpop of Bad Sounds: Also extracted this lineup to a separate playlist here, if you're interested.

Brave Sir Robin Posted June 14, 2016 Author Report Share Posted June 14, 2016 Rabbit Hole lineup now added to the playlist. About 2/3 down (stages are in the same order as the official lineup page), in running order from Jack Robert Hardman to The Big Moon.

Brave Sir Robin Posted June 15, 2016 Author Report Share Posted June 15, 2016 If you start listening to the playlist now, the festival gates will have opened before you finish it (You could even skip or fast-forward about 4 hours worth) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lebenski Posted June 15, 2016 Report Share Posted June 15, 2016 Loving this! Thanks for all of your work on it. I've been listening to it all day and have created a separate playlist that I'm dragging songs to when I like them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brave Sir Robin Posted June 20, 2016 Author Report Share Posted June 20, 2016 Added some more of the various self-confirmations/decent rumours we have for the Crow's Nest to the Glastonbury 2016 playlist - NZCA Lines, Pumarosa, former Let's Wrestle frontman Wesley Gonzalez, Stornoway, Toy, and (re-added) The Parrots and Rozi Plain, and, on @whisty's recommendation, Z-Star, who's playing the Bimble Inn. And you're most welcome, @lebenski! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John the Moth Posted September 27, 2016 Report Share Posted September 27, 2016 This is, I think, the most legendary, widely appreciated service to this forum (sorry The Thingy). The hard work and effort is all too clear and Mr BSR you are a hero! Is it too early to start on a 2017 playlist based on strong rumours?

Think @Quark was going to start something similar for next year but on deezer or something. That's a shame, maybe I'll start my own Spotify one then (I don't have deeper) but I can only hope to do half as well as the classic playlist.

stuartbert two hats Posted September 29, 2016 Report Share Posted September 29, 2016 Maybe we can try a collaborative playlist? I remember a few years ago this was tried and the tracks were all deleted a couple of times, but may still be the best approach given it's unlikely another superhuman like @Brave Sir Robin will be able to keep up with the massive amount required. I remember some discussion on automating things a few months ago by cross referencing efests/TOS and last.fm, I think @eFestivals was involved, but I can't remember if it was actually Neil who was thinking of doing it., Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brave Sir Robin Posted January 13, 2017 Author Report Share Posted January 13, 2017 I said I wouldn't, and I can't guarantee I'll be able to put as much work into it as previous years, but in the absence of anyone else doing one, may I present, for your listening pleasure: Glastonbury 2017 As usual it's confirmed acts, TBCs and SRs. Songs are those each act plays live most often. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
