Breezy strings, doom-drenched death-metal, synth-pop, submerged harmonies, summery ukeleles and icy xylophones are - as this playlist attests - just some of the sounds of the Nordic region, compiled as part of Nordic Day to celebrate DiS curating a Nordic night tonight in London info.»
Normal service resumed this week, and what a bunch of albums, singles and news stories we've had to hand-pick this playlist from. No fewer than TWO 9/10 albums, a couple of 8s and a Suede re-union. That's not mentioning the two Singles of the Week, by Yeasayer and These New Puritans. Brill.»
We're back! In a slightly slimline form. Still sexy, though.»
It's Friday and on DiS throughout 2009 that meant we did a Spotify playlist to compliment our editorial (archived here). Yeah, it is not unlike a covermount cassette wot you used to get on Melody Maker (RIP). Simply CLICK THIS LINK and you'll be whisked to the founder and current editor of this websites top 40 songs of the year playlist. They're not in any particular order per se, more-so organised into a listenable flow - yeah, not unlike a proper mixtape, just without all that pause button bashing ballache. »
We've picked covers by some of our favourites like Sufjan Stevens, The Polyphonic Spree and Katy Perry, plucked a few festive originals by Frightened Rabbit, The Raveonettes and Emmy the Great, plus a few classics, lots of novelties and plenty of Snoop Dogg. »

Welcome to the weekend, it has landed or somesuch e-talking nonsense. This playlist was made with a hangover and it probably shows.»
Ah, another cold and misty week in London is nearly over and amid end of list year list compiling and finishing off some exciting new features, the record releasing and music news hasn't relented. Anyhoo, here's our weekly Spotify playlist to accompany the content this week on DiS.»
This week's Spotifriday playlist, featuring Camera Obscura, Daniel Johnston, Four Tet, Liars, Kelpe, These New Puritans and a gaggle more.»
As you've hopefully come to expect, DiS ends each week with a little audio interpretation of what was on the site this week. Some say it's a little like a website cover mount, whilst others have been heard asking whether we have shares in Spotify or something (no but considering 2million+ people are using it, we wish we did!). »
On this playlist we've mixed theme tunes from TV shows and songs from horror movie soundtracks with some ghoulishly titled tracks from some of DiS' favourite acts, plus some gothic ridiculousness from Cradle of Filth and found Burroughs reading some Edgar Allan Poe. »

This week's Spotifriday playlist.»
DiS' founder and current editor Sean Adams compiles a playlist of songs that could be heard in the year 2000 (a rough theme we've set for you to build a Spotifriday playlist around - more details here) when this very website was in its embryonic stages. First, a bit of prologue...»

A slightly more sombre Friday Feeling this week, with the news that songwriter extraordinaire Ellie Greenwich passed away this week at the age of 68.»
'Ding! 'Ding! As part of DiS' Reading Festival preview, we've made a mixtape of the festival's greatest hits but first, a little prologue from DiS' editor.... »
Sunday has various songs written about it and dedicated to it but almost all of them are downbeat dreamy affairs. Strangely Sunday has nowhere near as many songs written about it as Saturday but maybe that's because those who've already written songs about Sunday have pretty much nailed it? Most of this playlist touches on things you might do on a Sunday but it's mostly songs that give me the Sunday feeling. »
Putting together this playlist we were taken aback by how many songs feature Saturday in the title and strangely, how many of them are pretty great. In fact, there are so many songs that had Saturday in the title that we didn't really bother (with a few exceptions) to find other things which sound-like or sum up this day of youthful exuberance, barbecues and birthday bashes. »
DiS is still mulling over the decade that was and pondering who the most important acts were, what the best gig was and which labels/events/moments really truly mattered. To soundtrack my thought process, I've compiled this playlist of my favourite songs of the decade and thought I'd join the opensource revolution and share this playlist with you all.»
Yeah, THANK GOD/DOG/F*CK IT'S FRIDAY! It certainly was the easiest day to pick random tracks for which feature the name of the day in the title. In fact just searching for 'Friday Night' brings up a whole array of interpretations of "party night". Hopefully this playlist goes some way to summing up and soundtracking at least one part of your Friday night frolicking and if not, what says Friday to you? (comment below)»
