Ames<p>OK I just coughed up for a <a href="https://mastodon.nz/tags/qobuz" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>qobuz</span></a> subscription. They give a relatively decent cut to artists, the sound quality rocks, you can buy albums through their site and they are not based in the US!

Dismal Manor Gang<p>While I was inventing "IKEA Tetris” a tune caught my ear. It was on a record titled “Legends of Acid Jazz”, a standards record no less! I just had to look and added it to <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/Roon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Roon</span></a> for later investigation.</p><p>Apparently, Houston Preston is the ring leader. Charles Lloyd has been helping out with arrangements. But it is <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/hardbop" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>hardbop</span></a> which i like. Roon has since moved on to Miles Davis "Flamenco Sketches" on Kind of Blue.

I created a playlist of my favourite songs on there I called, *Songs I Never Tire Of*<br>I currently have 393 tracks on it. It is about 25 hours of music. It is a work in progress.
