I may be a child of the 80s, but I'm not one of those nutjobs completely stuck in the music of their youth.
What's largely driven the playlists shared here so far is my familiarity with the music contained within. I went through my (crazy person) emotional process of learning to appreciate the music a long time ago, and now it's haphazardly parked in my memory, waiting to be put to use.
But this information has baggage attached to it—memories of the high noise to signal ratio of commercial broadcast media, and the expense of physical media.
And the time cost of it all.
We're free of that nowadays. All we have to do is listen.
So when a friend demands to listen to something like the 1975 while at BJJ in the mornings, I can spend a few days listening to their entire catalog to figure out if any of their songs make the cut.
It turns out there's a few, one of which is included on today's playlist.
