Iron Heart Forum Music League

[Matt]

Yeah. The girls listen to podcasts non stop and they don’t need a data plan on their phones to use it. Still holding out on that.

Similarly, I have a family bundle for Apple so use Apple Music... Which I have found I actually love. We have a couple of Atmos-capable speakers, so the Spatial Audio is cool on those, and the high fi is appreciated wherever we are listening. They also have a cool lyric feature that they have exclusively for a few years.

I'm sure Spotify is great as well but I am surprised by how much I enjoy Apple, even if it slightly complicates participating in this game.

When each round completes, I will update here and include a link to the playlist so that non-participants can enjoy the fun. I expect some really great playlists out of this crew.

Thanks for organising @mclaincausey id never seen one of these. I can tell it’s gonna be fun as there’s already lots of overlap in terms of musical tastes between forum members, and it’s a great way to discover new music from similarly minded people

Jesus H - that Sturgil track sounds exactly like what id imagine George Jones would sound like covering Nirvana....

[Matt]

How do we vote?

I forgot about 1000 Homo DJs! I just bought Ministry tickets yesterday. I saw them in 92. I hope they have walker access for my old ass.

Some submissions are too obvious - when Debbie sings „Den(n)is, I love you“. Hey, who could that be … ?

[Matt]

Hehe.

[Mizmazzle]

@matt Ministry is the shit!! They playing down there in NM? Jorgensen probably gonna need a walker more than you!!

Playlist for week 1: covers. I look forward to listening and then passing judgement

[Mizmazzle]

@mclaincausey so we get 12 votes for each round? We can use as many on one song as we want?

[Matt]

Guys I seriously don’t know how to vote. WTF

[Mizmazzle]

I’m good at getting confused, asking questions, then figuring it out for myself 5 seconds later.

[Matt]

So you’re not going to tell me?

[Mizmazzle]

Haha. @Matt i found it on the homepage of the game next to the playlist button. It’s now gone since I voted already.

[Mizmazzle]

Was here but gone now for me

[Alex]

[Matt]

Thank you!

[Alex]

Not sure if this Phoebe Bridgers track will get my vote, but love that there’s another fan here. Punisher is one of my favourite recent albums

[T4920]

Breaking this up into short listening sessions, we have a contender after the first 4 tracks...

How's everyone dealing with point allocation?

Planning on 5, 4, and 3 for 1st, 2nd, and 3rd respectively.

From what I can work out, you have 12 votes, to use as much as you want, but can up vote by 2. So you could vote for 6 songs giving them 2 up votes. or any other combination with your votes (but only 2 up votes per song)
