Fred McGriff Posted February 23, 2010 Share Posted February 23, 2010 so everyday to start my day i've been sorting my songs by length, and i'll just run through all the songs that are as long as the date. so all the songs that are 2:23, I listened to them in a row. it was a good random mix of tunes and they were all the exact same length and it was enjoyable. juss sayin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest futuregirlfriend Posted February 23, 2010 Share Posted February 23, 2010 my god. this is much better than foobar's random mode that just loves the beatles, pavement and the microphones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Ron Manager Posted February 24, 2010 Share Posted February 24, 2010 Yeah this is seriously a great idea. Great combo of some good tunes and ones I'm less familiar with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SCONES TO DIE FOR Posted February 24, 2010 Share Posted February 24, 2010 Hey, not to rain on your parade or anything, but I just realized something. Some songs are like 5:46 or 7:53 and whatnot. Seeing that there are only 28, 30 or 31 days in a month, that's going to exclude a lot of tracks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

solarion Posted February 24, 2010 Share Posted February 24, 2010 a different way to do it would be to listen to songs that are the same length as whatever the time is currently. This way you include all of them below 13 minutes and above a minute. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

o00o Posted February 24, 2010 Share Posted February 24, 2010 My iphone does sort the playlist by alphabet when I just hit play without selecting anything its nice to listen to it this way but random is even more nice like a radio with really weird and nice music of which I don't know half of it even so I do know the stuff I put on it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brandi_B Posted February 24, 2010 Share Posted February 24, 2010 Why not random by sub category? Like just randomize your playlist that is all star trek music, etc. That way you don't get genre cross talk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
o00o Posted February 24, 2010 Share Posted February 24, 2010 I really like it that it mixes the genres this adds more to the radio feel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brandi_B Posted February 24, 2010 Share Posted February 24, 2010 as do I. Well sometimes. Anyway, I was just suggesting a more biased play list to avoid hearing stuff you don't want to hear is response to: when i put it on random i get fucking gomez and holiday music nonstop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cichlisuite Posted February 24, 2010 Share Posted February 24, 2010 i love randomize/shuffle. it's the main way i listen to my music. it's like the best radio station. where else i can hear playing Moondog, then Sunn O))), and then Scofield lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest tht tne Posted February 24, 2010 Share Posted February 24, 2010 i don't shuffle my whole mp3 collection frequently because it's 410gb and it takes too long to load into foobar2000 i saved a playlist of everything recently but i don't feel like updating it regularly so i guess i am just a lazy bastard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest tht tne Posted February 24, 2010 Share Posted February 24, 2010 i'm an album kind of guy, i rarely ever listened to shuffled mixes, i just don't get anything from it. i am too but i often realize "hey i haven't listened to most of my music in a while" and then i shuffle, it's like radio only made out of what i like or have liked Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
