I will never listen to the oh sees or whatever they call themselves because if I liked them and wanted to buy their music I’d drive myself nuts trying to put it in order. Their fault
These obviously fake names are tricky I think:
B or N for Billy Nomates?
Also tricky for people who sometimes use just their first names:
Some of Dawn Richard’s album have her full name (so obviously under R, we’re not savages after all) and some just have ‘Dawn’. I filed them all together under R and then literally couldn’t remember her second name and so couldn’t find them for ages.
Magnolia Electric Co (album)
- M for magnolia Electric co
- S for songs: ohia
- M for Molina
B for Billy Nomates
L for Little Simz (and other “Lil/Little” monikers)
S for St Vincent
Can i shock you, mine aren’t sorted in any way. Pure chaos
The guy has a really good schtick of changing the name all the time so you can’t follow them, and also making music that sounds terrible.
Group names that start with “The”
- File under T
- File under the first letter of the word following “The”
Not for at least 10 years
If this is like Firstname Lastname & Namefirst Namelast rather than a supergroup title, I’d go with whatever artist I like more/am more invested in.
If it’s roughly equal investment, hahaha doesn’t happen nevermind.
Yeah Freddie Gibbs & Madlib was the one I was thinking of
- F for Freddie
- G for Gibbs
- M for Madlib
for MC/producer collaborations I go with the vocalist, though I’m definitely more into Madlib than Freddie
god organising is a mess
Multi artist compilations
- Album name
- V for various artists
- End of the alphabet
- Something else
I’ve got a Trust Fund/Joanna Gruesome split 12", but for a long time those two artists were right next to each other anyway so it sat happily in between. Then another artist squeezed in there and I was left with some tough calls to make.
Because she’s the first listed artist and there’s no chance I’d ever have another Kurt vile record to put it with
Need to see the working here
Genuinely shuddered a little reading that. Chaos
CD’s are arranged in order of preference.
Might start filing by the main songwriters birth distance from the equator. In the event of a tie I’ll put the one with the most advanced swimming badge first.
