When I first added "Listening To This Week" to I Don't Hear A Single, it was to allow more single songs to appear here as IDHAS is primarily a home for Album Reviews. The IDHAS 10 Song Mix consists of songs that we discover ourselves.
The addition of something that covered submissions seemed another way to cover tracks as I felt it was impossible to devote Reviews to one song. It was also a way to discover artists that we might have missed and we have. Some of the songs we have published will eventually lead to Album Reviews from the same artists.
I expected to have to wade through lots and lots of unsuitable offerings to get at the 10 - 15 songs we would embed weekly. It also meant a lot of artists chasing a small amount of space. It is time consuming, but really enjoyable when you discover a gem.
This week for the first time since the feature started, I feel that we have a full selection of songs that could easily be an IDHAS 10 Song Mix. There is a cracking line up this week and it has helped that time has allowed artists to get used to the type of music we cover.
14 songs this week that are in no order of preference and provide a cracking diverse listen. I think many of you know that I don't use Spotify or Apple Music etc. You Tube isn't ideal for anything much and a self compilation raised copyright problems and piracy issues.
So I thought this weekly feature may be the best thing to tell you about these songs. This weekly fayre is solely for submissions, not the usual stuff that we dig out ourselves. This is a fine and varied selection of songs. Please investigate the artists further.
