Day 2 of my Christmas music countdown. This is Joyzipper and their Christmas song. Their second album 'American Whip' was mostly recorded in Glasgow at CaVa studios around 2004, where I worked at the time. www.youtube.com/watch?v=nd4W...

Just an observation on music consumption. Since the creation of streaming services and playlists, the feeling of the listener belonging to music communities has diminished and I don’t think that it will ever return. The music landscape is now too fragmented.
