I don& #39;t have pandora/spotify/whatever because I& #39;ve already got 22,000 songs right here that I& #39;ve never listened to. This is because when I& #39;m intoxicated, acquiring new music sounds like a GREAT IDEA, whether or not I& #39;m going to like the new stuff.

look at that, a 13-minute experimental/prog-rock epic named "Where The Fuck& #39;s My Wallet?" — tipsy!Krinn thought that sounded just swell
someone I& #39;ve never heard of plays the music of someone else I& #39;ve never heard of, on an instrument I& #39;ve heard of but couldn& #39;t pick out of a lineup? count me in
the music I actually like is, by and large, trash — therefore, some random synthwave artist too obscure for a wikipedia page probably raises the average quality of my library. get in here.
while I& #39;m at it, hook me up with some furry drum-and-bass bullshit with the artist& #39;s fursona on the cover, I fucking love that, god
"hindustani classical" is a phrase I& #39;d literally never heard in my life before I laid eyes on this album, so naturally I had to have it.
this is not music snobbery: I have no idea whether this music is _good_ or not, and I& #39;m not invested in anyone (including me) liking it
she doesn& #39;t know what the fuck she& #39;s listening to and neither do I, but that& #39;s not stopping us
this was recommended to me as the best tech/death metal album of 2018, a description I am profoundly unqualified to dispute
I believe I ended up with this one through Warren Ellis& #39; newsletter broadside dealie. great source for this kind of thing.
"hey krinn would you like to listen to music programmatically generated from tree rings? yeah that& #39;s what I thought"
this habit dates back to before my current music library (2012–present): I knew someone who worked in public radio, they were giving away free CDs, I was all about that
