Scots, with a thing this awesome it's bound to spread to other parts of the world. Also, is the Premium service not available outside the Euro Uber Overwatch?

Loving the new tracks on this playlist!
With regards to Agalloch - they do have a ton of purely instrumental tracks, but that one I put on there is my all-time favourite. If you want something with less of the doom metal vibe, checkout "The Hawthorn Passage" from the same album. Its 12 minutes of pure wintery bliss.
This whole thread has forced me to look into my mp3 collection which is so vast I'd given up looking into what I actually have. What with my last.fm account now linked to foobar and spotify sharing new stuff (why oh why do I like that Gossip track so much??) I'm looking forward to discovering more bands.
Brava!

David Hasslehoff is one of the most talented singers and composers in the world...
I'll be sure to check out their instrumental stuff then. Anyone check out the Solus and Andy Irvine tracks?

Because its pretty good. It is a remix though so no idea what the original is like. This is certainly widening my musical horizons. There is stuff on there I would never normally listen to - like that Rory Gallagher, but I like it!

Hey can everyone still see the Editors and Gossip tracks(#4 & #5) on the list?
Go into Edit -> Preferences -> Playlist and untick Hide Unplayable Tracks to see all tracks.
The original Editors and Gossip tracks were unplayable here (and everywhere outside of UK I think) but I switched them out with versions from the singles. Do you UK people still see them? If not, go ahead and change them back to the originals.
CSS' first album is also unavailable here. :(

Yeah, the Royksopp and Timo Lassy tracks cannot be replaced here. No CSS? No Alala for you? :(

I added the Rory G just for a throwback to classic blues rock. People often tag him as the Irish answer to Hendrix whether you can dig that or not. There is quite an anecdote to back it up. Apparently in the early 70's some journalist comes up to Hendrix and asks him how it feels to be the greatest guitarist on earth and Hendrix apparently just shrugged off the comment and replied 'You'll have to ask Rory Gallagher that.'
Anyway, I'm intrigued to know what you guys think of the Solus, Andy Irvine and Planxty tracks?
Edit: Just noticed after following henke's instructions that I can't listen to Royksopp or Timo Lassy.

I put up the Gossip and Editors tracks and yup I can see 'em fine still.
I'm not a fan of the Editors but that song by Stereolab is superb and the Editors nailed it.
The Gossip album Music for Men is superb (skip the first song), I found it through Spotify by chance and would never have listened to it otherwise. It's Rick Rubin produced which always helps
As SubJeff said Spotify is at least 27 types of awesome.
(and Audacity makes it for me when I'm on my Satellite link ;))
@macha I like the Andy Irvine etc, but Trad music is my old mans life so it's in the blood
edit; I see all the anal tracks have prolapsed

If you add something its because you can find it in a search which surely means you can always listen to stuff you add, no?
I may have to get this for my phone now, its such a nice program. I wish I could use it to play all my other music though. I'm using Media Monkey at the moment (which works great with the iPod Shuffle). I may switch to using my phone for music but if only there was total integration!
Anyone use Spotify on a mobile device?
