VT4J23 - Day 30 - A great closing track

Well, thanks to everyone for putting up with my daily posts and giving me some new stuff to listen to! Sharing music is the best.

--- Update! Ultimately, we all just want to share music we love and talk about it. Please don’t feel restricted by physical media. Share what you want!

Over in the vinyl sub at the Bad Place, u/Folk_nurse had been doing a Vinyl Tunes for June thing. When the blackout started, I kept adding to my own list each day, and I’d love to carry on with you all. Below is the calendar, I’ll start a thread each day.

The point is just to get us all looking at our physical collections and sharing music.

And seriously… ALL credit and thanks go to folk_nurse. I’m just not headed back there.

VT4J23 - Day 28 - A great vocal performance
  • A long work day and I failed to post in my own thread! Appreciate everyone keeping it alive! My song for today is from one of the GOATs - Marvin Gaye. Depressingly, it's just as relevant today.

  • Beehaw's Demographics survey of June 2023!
  • I tried to start a silly forum-based role playing game once. I wanted the entire board to just be classified ads for and by superheroes and villains. From the mundane to the spectacular. It's an idea that still makes me laugh at the possibilities.

    What's currently the best Lemmy app for Android?
  • I'll put my thoughts on this post as it showed up as I scrolled to get to the one from a day or two ago...I have 5 different Lemmy apps installed right now. Figure that there is going to be a lot of experimentation and work being done right now, so it's nice to see what everyone is doing.

    • Jerboa - Personally, I really like Jerboa. Being the most mature of the bunch shows. It's well laid out, has just enough UI options, and works. Except that now Beehaw isn't on v0.18.

    • Connect - Not open source at this time, I get why that matters to people, but not a deal breaker for me. Typing this comment in Connect. Just updated this morning with additional and redesigned settings. There is about a thumbs width of space between this comment box and my keyboard. That's kind of yucky.

    • Liftoff - I'm hopeful for this one. It LOOKS the best to me, but there's some weird UX issues. Biggest being that the only place to see your replies/notifications is the top of the Home feed with no quick way to get there if you've been scrolling.

    • Thunder - I can see the potential, but it's not for me right now. No buttons on comments, you have to use swipe gestures. But posts have buttons. Changing UI options doesn't actually change anything 95% of the time.

    • Summit - You want a zero frills, dark mode way of browsing and interacting? This is that. I'd love a FEW options (like light mode), but it's fast and easy. Uhh...just realized I can't find a way to make a new post...

    • Wefwef.app - Last one. Really slick looking and responsive, but too iOS-y for me. It also claims to have light mode, but I can't figure out how to switch it. Really polished though.

  • VT4J23 - Day 26 - A song to play first thing in the morning
  • Between you and me, I haven't been checking. 🫢

    It started on the vinyl sub and so that's what I'm sticking with, but at the end of the day, it's just about sharing music we enjoy. I'll update my description for these last few!

    VT4J23 - Day 25 - A song for a movie scene
    • Song - Mekong
    • Album - Fizzy Fuzzy Big & Buzzy
    • Artist - The Refreshments

    As noted in the OP, I don't really like the prompt. So I'm taking it to just mean that the song evokes a specific scenario. I had a co-worker that decided The Refreshments major label debut was a concept album that deserved to be made into a movie. And he was right. Clyne's songs are so descriptive and specific that it's hard not to imagine the scene playing out.

    Last week. My day is wrong on the image. Confused the heck out of myself. This is not my favorite prompt, personally. But still a nice way to think about your collection.

    VT4J23 - Day 24 - A song, album, or artist with a number in it
  • Great tune. I'm not a Giz devotee, but I really appreciate how they just seem to write whatever the hell they feel like. Stylistically, the new album was just not doing it for me this week, but then there's this and it could be a completely different band.

  • VT4J23 - Day 24 - A song, album, or artist with a number in it
    • Song - 32 Pennies
    • Album - Greatest & Latest
    • Artist - Warrant

    Back to 80s rock today. Greatest & Latest features re-recordings of some of their songs with a few new ones mixed in. Generally, the re-recordings are a little looser, slower, and not as heavily produced as the originals. I quite enjoy them. Honestly hope that with Taylor Swift's "Taylors Versions" we see more full scale re-recordings by some artists. Time and experience can really be heard and lend something new.

    Pearl Jam - Vitalogy demos

    I'm cleaning house and going through old burned backups. I've rarely seen these out in the world, but got them back in my tape trading days. Are these a thing that I've just missed otherwise in my online PJ life?
