herr_irrtum,

Haha, #YouTubeMusic (my "#Spotify" service) did send me a "recap" – so basically a breakdown about what type of a music consumer I am... and it's hilarious!

Apparently Googles all seeing eye err... algorithm knows it all. No doubt possible.

They say the music style I like the most is... lightweight JAZZ!! Hahaha, no really. If they say that! And my favorite musician is consequentially... Gary Burton (vibraphone maestro). Hihihi...

Now, nothing against jazz, nothing against Gary. But who would know, they are my favorites? I mean, that's news to me!

And it couldn't be more wrong!

I know how this came to be though. Story time:

I had a friend coming over. I cooked for her and also prepared for a good acoustical mood in my living room. She plays saxophone and flute in various orchestras in her spare time but likes strange indie music as The Frogs (yes!), so for my "acoustic mood preparation" I wanted A) surprise her by selecting unusual stuff, but B) something classy as well plus C) something that isn't distracting... so I've assembled a large 60s Vibraphone jazz playlist. And that took time, and I did testplay this multiple times until it felt right before that evening came, where it was played again.

And that was apparently enough for Google to know about my listening habits. It has nothing to do with what I usually listen to and also shows that I spend the major part of my music time not on YouTube music but on Bandcamp and/or local "on device" music using other player apps.

Sigh...
