The shuffle mentality vs the full album

Zer0 · 06-05-2010, 05:24 PM

I mostly listen to full albums but when i can't really decide what to listen to i usually do a shuffle. Sometimes i'd listen to a certain song on shuffle and decide to put on a full album by that band or even just a few select tracks. I also have a habit of skipping songs on shuffle and trying to find songs i'm in the right mood for.

Yeah me too, shuffle is a great way to figure out what you might be in the mood for and also remind you of albums you haven't heard in a while or never paid enough attention to. That's one of the reasons I shuffle my huge library at home on the weekends. So much to choose from, and it gives me ideas for the week.
