Baggins7 Posted April 25, 2020 Report Share Posted April 25, 2020 I used to be on Apple Music but switched to Spotify in January and much prefer it. Especially since I’ve been working from home the last 6 weeks it’s nice to stick on a daily mix which requires very little thinking and gives you a lot of what you like with some of what you might like. Great way of discovering new stuff with little effort Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately it’ll more than likely just be ‘Hmm Other Stage is looking as uninspired as usual’ Maybe we’ll at least get closer to whittling down who is/isn’t the Sunday Pyramid sub, if only by Robyn’s inclusion/absence.

RarerThanDandyB Posted April 29, 2020 Report Share Posted April 29, 2020 I so hope we get a message saying these are the acts that signed up to 2021. Ed O'Brien and Fontaines D.C. on the Park would have been so good and FKA Twigs in John Peel with Cage The Elephant, I prey it is the same for next year man.

Really like a band called Saltwater Sun from the list. Think the write up says they’re like Wolf Alice and id also compare to Black Honey. Very decent. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
