My Year in Music

meretriculaHey dreamwidth friends! Long time no post (except for the annual "Dear Yulegoat" letter), but I come bearing gifts, so please excuse the intrusion.
I may be the last person on the internet who still listens to CDs and creates playlists using .mp3s rather than Spotify, but you'll pry my iPod Shuffle out of my cold dead hands (it is over five years old and still works! it goes for days without being charged! it clips onto my clothes! there are no ads between songs!) so that's my preferred music consumption method. I make a big mishmash playlist every season of the songs I've gotten into, and it's kind of fun for me to look back at a year's worth of music. Maybe it'll be fun for you, too! My musical taste veers between "I heard this song on a fanvid and I liked it enough to look up the CD," "this is so popular even I've heard of it" and "random shit I found on Noisetrade and downloaded because it had a pretty album cover" so uh, be forewarned.
