#61 Party, party Spotify
by De Jeugd van Tegenwoordig
Especially for Spotify's first anniversary we bring you De Jeugd van Tegenwoordig!
Wasn't it beautiful, weren't we cool... Oh those days! We used to mix tapes for ourselves, our friends and... for the cutest girls whom we would impress with personalized tapes, full of music they didn't know yet. For hours we would lock ourselves in our rooms, alone with records, 12"-s, singles, a turntable and a tape-deck. A perfect mix of two times 45 minutes, and you will be remembered for ever!
Who does not remember the time 'auto reverse' was introduced? Wow! That was innovation! And innovation lasted: now we have Spotify! An online library with a wide range of artists and genres! And with the possibility to share it with your friends.
Strangelove (a creative advertising agency in Amsterdam) had the idea to ask music professionals to make a Mixed Tape - a playlist in Spotify. A very simple idea with a really nice result!
You need Spotify to listen to the tapes.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY SPOTIFY!!! Especially for you De Jeugd van Tegenwoordig made a party mixed tape to celebrate Spotify's one year anniversary in The Netherlands. Just a little trivial: De Jeugd van Tegenwoordig is the most listened artist in Spotify in NL

De Jeugd van Tegenwoordig (translated: 'Kids these days') is a Dutch alternative hip hop and R&B formation based in Amsterdam, The Netherlands, renowned for their musical approach of irreverent, humorous lyrics and electronic beats. Their humorous style is characterised by their frequent use of word play, lyrical flirting with languages other than Dutch and the propagating of neologisms, such as the word "watskeburt" (cf. the english wassup).
