How time flies... seven months after the 20,000 tracks post, and now up to 40,000. Approx 2850 tracks per month (up from 2000), tracks a month, approx 95 per day (up from 67). Guess I've been at my computer a lot more this year...

My top 10 bands now look like this:

10. (down from 4) The Pentangle

9. (down from 7) The Libertines

7=. (up from 9) The Beatles

7=. (down from 5) Green Day

6. (up from 10) The Futureheads

5. (new entry) Sandy Denny

4. (down from 3) Lush

3. (up from 6) The Go! Team

2. (unchanged) Yann Tiersen

1. (unchanged) Zero 7

No more Simon & Garfunkel in the top 10, and much less Pentangle, but a whole lot of recently discovered Sandy Denny to replace that folk gap... and the recently released Go! Team album Proof of Youth has meant I've been listening to them in ever increasing amounts.

Bubbling under and possibly to make an appearance in the 60,000 tracks top 10:

High Contrast
E-Z Rollers
Roni Size

3 loosely drum'n'bass artists who all make clever, melodic music that is perfect working music...
