Playlists.

I’ve just finally got to grips with making playlists on my Zen. I grasped the basic concept but found tweaking the playlists to my exact tastes a little harder to work out initially. But I’ve got it all worked out now.

Here are the playlists I have so far:

U2 Mix – most of all U2’s stuff on there. Boy, October, War, Unforgettable Fire, Joshua Tree, Rattle and Hum, Achtung Baby, Zooropa, Pop. I haven’t got ATYCLB or HTDAAB on yet though. Then there’ll be the new one to put on after Xmas – Yay!

Bowie – Not EVERYTHING Bowie yet. Just a selection from Space Oddity, Hunky Dory, Ziggy, Aladdin, Pin-Ups, Diamond Dogs, Station To Station, Low, Lodger, Scary Monsters, Buddha, Outside, Heathen.

Antipodean (ha) – Tracks from all Oz/Nz acts like Icehouse, Split Enz, Crowded House, Headless Chickens, Hunters and Collectors, The Cruel Sea, You Am I, Spy vs Spy.

I’ve got two 80’s mixes lists. One is ALL the 80’s music I have on the player, and the other is a cut-down version of my absolute faves.

When I’m playing tracks from the playlist I put the player on shuffle mode so all the tracks get mixed up.

I love it!
