Yesterday https://last.fm/ (@lastfm) emailed their year in review reports, which they called #Playback24 and Last.Year.
Kudos to them for waiting until the new year to do so, and breaking with the pattern of services prematurely posting year in review summaries.¹
They’re also available on the web, without requiring a native mobile app to view.
Mine is here: https://www.last.fm/user/tantekc/listening-report/year
You can find yours (if you’re a last.fm user) by going here:
* https://www.last.fm/user/_/listening-report/year
The page title calls it your #YearInMusic, and the URL your #ListeningReport.
It has many interesting elements, from various top listened lists (artist, album, track), to what percent of 2024 listens (which they call scrobbles) were new artists, albums, and tracks.
Their “Top Tags” time chart is quite cool. Fascinating to see the differences in music listening over the seasons and the whole year.
The report has many interactive features, so it will take me some time to figure out how to save, export, and/or republish my listening report on my personal #indieweb site.
For now I used Firefox to save the page as an .html page to my laptop, and was quite impressed with how much of the information was available in that one file. Much more than #Spotify’s #Wrapped.
That’s step 1. Step 2 is figuring out a good way to blog at least some of it.
