Last week during the pledge drive for public radio station WFUV, listeners were asked to submit their "essential music," a list of five bands/artists, along with their donation. This is clearly a clever way to survey the audience, but it also got me thinking of sharing more of my personal faves in playlist form. In prior posts, I have linked to my
LCD Soundsystem Faves playlist with the news the band will be releasing another album after breaking up in 2011 (and an update: the band has signed with the behemoth Columbia Records!) Plus I posted my
David Bowie Faves playlist after this legend's untimely death.
So here are links to some more playlists of "essential music" found on my Spotify account
@NewMusicMatters, dig in!
Arcade Fire Faves
Band of Horses Faves
Beck Faves
