Hey everyone, I'm very excited about this instrumental Beatles cover on my new EP, and it comes with a scenic music video too - filmed in south-east Australia's misty rainforests. If that sounds interesting, please give it a watch and a like (I'm trying to crack YouTube, haha) https://youtu.be/WfkNy9twi54 Cheers, Max

@Brian Hennessey recently made an interesting discovery when his track Lifted landed on the high-reach Spotify editorial playlist "Deep Focus" (see https://www.instagram.com/p/DZ5ahDUCaiH/). The rumors about so-called "ghost artists" and the term "Perfect Fit Content" (PFC) used internally by Spotify were already uncovered some time ago in Liz Pelly's book Mood Machine. What I've been missing since then is quantifiable evidence about how common these artists actually are in major playlists. To shed some light on this, I've spent the last few days building a tool with Claude Code to identify the "ghosts". I'm currently cross-checking the results with Brian and wanted to share them with you. Full methodology and results are in the HTML file below. 👇🏼 If you know of other suspicious playlists you'd like me to run through the tool, or if you have tips and ideas on how to improve the detection methodology, I'd love to hear your feedback. 🎸
