Overview
I suppose you could call SLP (Spotify Listening Project) as a sort-of companion to the Album Listening Project which is in full swing at the moment. Anyway, you’re probably confused to what the hell SLP is in the first place, so here’s a bit of an overview:
The intent here is to get more activity on the forums going and promote discussion of things not within a simple album format. It’s sort of inspired by a few community threads we’ve had in the past but also something we did on my first music forum around a decade ago— getting the community to come together and listen to a playlist mix with no branching theme to give a sort of new audience some awareness of songs others love and have fun discussing them in varying levels of detail. So in short what we have here is a playlist discussion that is exactly like the ALC but not with a sole album.
Users will have a duration to listen to the playlist of about a week— these playlists being about 30-45 minutes in total length. As a good balance let’s keep it at under fifteen songs at a cap.
Much like the ALC, you don’t have to limit your discussion/listening experience to that week. Discussion threads can be posted in at any time and revisited by some fresh ears when wanted. This isn’t rigid. This is supposed to be fun.
Of course, we will be using Spotify. So that’s pretty much the only 'hard' rule.
Questions? Volunteers?[/b]

It would be more of an “anything goes” deal as long as we aren’t playing elaborate jokes with harsh noise playlists or ten tracks of lossless silence. This is not to say these playlists cannot have their own theme, but to be courteous to your fellow forum goers if that makes any sense?
But yeah, mostly everything on spotify is acceptable.

I’m not sure how mixcloud is compatible with Spotify, so I don’t know how to answer that question?

I'd like to do it, if I can give y'all a link to one of my shared Dropbox folders. Otherwise, I'll hold off until I can find ten songs that I want to put together to show off that are also on Spotify.
