... Posted February 9, 2006 Share Posted February 9, 2006 Had to share. I'm listening to my entire music collection on 'shuffle' right now. This is always entertaining and good for a laugh. Just now I had these songs happen: "Advance Romance" - Frank Zappa (YCDTOSA volume 3 version) "Skin Tight" - Ohio Players "Largo (from Sonata)" - Bela Fleck & Edgar Meyer Jarring. Very jarring. Since then, the 'random' selections have me wondering about the logic that is in Winamp's shuffle feature. I got "Scratch & Sniff" by Bela Fleck & The Flecktones next and right this second Zappa's "Plastic People" (We're Only In It For The Money) is playing. Hmm... random indeed.

butcherNburn Posted February 9, 2006 Share Posted February 9, 2006 Sometimes I get the feeling that my cd jukebox gets in a mood for either 1 group or a type of music. If you think my playing is bad, you should hear me sing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gruuve Posted February 10, 2006 Share Posted February 10, 2006 Great...even our devices are temperamental! Old bass players never die, they just buy lighter rigs. - Tom Capasso, 11/9/2006 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ATM Posted February 10, 2006 Share Posted February 10, 2006 When I use WinMedPlayer, it loves to keep diving into boxed sets. Just reformatted the hard-drive and upgraded from 98 to 2000, and can now put iTunes on the PC. We'll see how random that is since I don't have my whole collection on the Mac. Dern, downloading all those updates sure takes a ton of time when you're on dial-up.

Tom Capasso Posted February 13, 2006 Share Posted February 13, 2006 While I have not done any real shuffle, I can imagine that the random choices could do this. To think that the machine may somehow do this is too extreme to consider. I've recently made an unusual choice in Pandora, and am surprised by some of the "connections" it's making. Bump - "Plastic People" is on the Absolutely Free album. I thought this (mostly because I have the "...Money" album burned into my head) but checked to confirm - sorry to be picky.
