We’re always making new stuff, but we frequently forget to tell you about it. Sorry :/ Here’s what we’ve been working on in addition to our site redesign:
Zeitgeist: We’ve meticulously restored all four years of our Zeitgeists (2007-2010). Browse, remind yourself of some great music you may have forgotten, and sign up to be notified when Zeitgeist 2011 launches.
Twitter @s: When you share a track on Twitter, we @ the artists to let them know people are talking about their music. Catch an incorrect Twitter handle? Let us know.
Blog shuffle: One of our members wrote in asking if he could shuffle a blog page, to discover some older tracks he may have missed. Now you can choose “Shuffle” from the drop down menu on every blog listing. Thanks, Dave!
Keyboard shortcuts: A combination of vi/Winamp/arrow shortcuts for navigating the tracks:
Next track: n j b →
Previous track: p k z ←
Play / pause: x, c, spacebar
Stop: v
Heart: l h f
Do you use others? No spacebar for now; too many people use that to scroll.
Bandcamp support: We now pick up Bandcamp track embeds on the blogs in our list.
Tea: Blackcurrant, Earl Grey, peppermint, and lemon ginger have been added to our pantry.
