Started using it today, it recommended Green Onions. Very nice album and I likely wouldn’t have listened to it otherwise.

There’s been a decent amount of activity at !sessionjams@sh.itjust.works and the music is always all over the place. Popular music, obscure music, non American music, pretty much everything depending on the day.

I browse and occasionally contribute as you know but I really think the community would benefit from some organisation in the form of post title rules over there.

Having a standardised “artist - track title” format or even “artist - track title (genre)” seen as it is such a varied selection over there would really make the browsing experience a lot better than a massive list of just song names in my opinion.

I was going to make a post on the community about this but seen as I see you here I thought I’d just make the suggestion directly to you. I think it would be a positive thing for the community going forward :)

There’s definitely merit in what you’re saying but I’m also fine with it staying how it is.

The idea is that it should be easy to share what you have on, but we’re all using different services. IMO the easiest thing is using Lemmy’s title filling feature which is the song name by default with Spotify links. I believe the other services like YouTube and tidal work similarly.

Many of the posts in that community are made by members while they are working, which also makes me hesitant to enforce title rules on them. Quick and easy posts are easy to blast out when all you have is a second or two. Maybe in time as it becomes more than just a handful of people posting it should be revisited.

FWIW I’m ok with the communities I create never becoming popular on Lemmy. Most are created for a small group of friends to mess around on where other services don’t fit the bill. I’d much rather have fun posting when the mood strikes than worry about fitting a particular posting guideline. If like-minded people happen to join in, awesome. If not, we were having fun before and we’ll continue to have fun without them!

Yeh fair enough, just thought I’d give some feedback from my perspective, I appreciate not everyone uses it in the same way.

Either way I’ll carry on posting occasionally :D

Just contributed myself, and subbed. Always looking for a good jam after a good smoke.

I quaff the grape’s nectar and doth play diverse melodies from Spotify until I chance upon a tune that pleases me.

It chases you down a dark alleyway and has its way with you? That’s dark, man.

Its just you hear it on the radio or when your at someplace or whatnot. happenstance. My condo had painters and I asked a guy what song he was playing when I walked by.

That’s really it. I don’t really seek out new music, as much as I happen to stumble upon it. My music library is intense and what I listen to changes frequently.

Very cool. Kind of like how Pandora used to be when it first started.
