  • Silly Singletrack complicated Spotify/Twitter competition
  • Mark
    Full Member

    Just cos we've discovered we can share collaborative playlists with the world on Spotify 🙂

    OK.. here's what you need to do to win some Singletrack goodies from pen drives , bottles, subscriptions, t-shirts etc..

    Help us create a Singletrack Top Ten Chart!

    First.. get Spotify on your computer – Spotify is just a music streaming application. It's free. It's clever.. http://www.spotify.com

    Second.. Get on twitter and follow us @singletrackmag

    Third.. Open your iTunes library (or whatever) and find the most played single in your library.

    Go Fourth… Search for it on Spotify and add it to our Readers Best Of playlist.

    You can find our playlist once you have Spotify installed here..
    http://open.spotify.com/user/singletrackmagazine/playlist/0Cf6XbVwa6dmJqk3ucWFKo

    Fifthly… You need to tell us what tune you are responsible for by posting your song choice on Twitter . Include @singletrackmag in your twitter post so we can follow it 🙂

    Sixly… At the end of the week we will sort out a top ten of our favourites from that playlist. If your tune is in the top ten you win

    It's our most complicated competition ever! 🙂
    If you can work out how to do it I reckon your odds of winning will be rather high due to some intelligence based social network survival of the fittest principal!

    well apart from the people who have managed to already add tunes to the list..

    … it still requires an invite

    Indeed.. Who's got some spare invites? 🙂

    The playlist is shaping up pretty nicely indeed..
    It's quite 'Rock-y' at the moment, despite the Mika – Lollipop entry 🙂

    Oo.. nice idea. Of course Spotify means that my iTunes most listened to isn't "my" most listened to at all, I probably do more than half my listening via Spotify these days.

    Loving the Circlesquare track that someone added. In fact, generally a great selection of songs!

    Oh yes, twiitter : http://twitter.com/spittingcat/status/9526077156

    Don't have a twitter account and don't intend to, well trying not to, but even I did I've lost a huge collection of MP3s so just building back up my collection. I reckon currently though itunes will probably have Lady Ga Ga or Black eyed peas at the top as the bloody kids and wife have it on repeat.

    It'll be a dead heat with every track entered only having one vote. Mark, this is the STW forum. Everyone will try to out-niche each other so no one will post a track that's already been posted. I thought you'd have figured that one out…

    FAIL 😉

    It's not a most votes wins kinda chart… It's a hand picked by Claire this week kinda chart..

    This week's top ten will be her selection from the list..

    Week after it will be someone else. We decided only one person could choose the top ten each week cos we'd all end up shouting at each other if we tried it by committee 🙂

    ahh, wish you'd mentioned that at the start.

    err, what is Claire's sort of music, by the way?

    Ah Nice try 🙂

    If yours doesn't make it into the top ten this week then you get another chance next week when someone else from our orifice picks their top ten for the playlist 🙂

    Must add that it's a shame Spotify is such a shitty app. Twice I had to reboot to kill it off when it just hung around in the background and would not restart.
    Users beware!

    I was disappointed when it didn't flow into 'fight for your right' though. Not that the Death in Vegas song is bad…
