Well, I was placed in Mexico, but I do enjoy a good ol dick in the ass, what does that make me?
If you get it every time you want it, that makes you a happy person.
Inconclusive. We need more data on Mexico's listening stats before we can truly say.
Chaflán?
I was placed in Berkeley. I'm not gay but maybe my taste in music is.
It gave me Burlington. #1 listened artist last year: The Beastie Boys. I sometimes think its less artificial intelligence and more a random number picker.
My top genre was "indie québécois" and it placed me in Québec, so it's at least smart enough to figure that out.
This headline broke my brain. I know what Spotify is but not "Spotify Wrapped" so I kept reading it like my Spotify had wrapped something but "Place" next to it just would not compute.
Basically it's a year in review of your Spotify listening
I was thinking that it wrapped place, but "you" did not compute.
Bozeman, Montana.
Fine with me, that's where Zefram Cochrane launched the first human-built warp vessel.
Me too, and I missed that reference, shame on me. However Spotify said it was because I like both rock and blues
Now it’s head-canon that Spotify called me a Trekkie! It even fits with all the rest of you who are apparently learning you’re gay
I listen to alt rock, classic rock, blues and hip-hop. Definitely similar mixes.
I find it wild that they'd include such a little city like Bozeman in the list.
I'm gay, and I got Portland
Also Portland!
cool, do you know that other guy?
Oh, you're that kind of gay... 😒
I got Portland too!! I'm bi but I mostly listen to Spotify at work where almost everyone else is gay haha
Curious what's in your top artists? I have The Midnight, Kalax, Timecop1984, and other Retrowave/Synthwave type music and got Seattle, but I live near Portland.
They placed me in Portland based on the Smoking Popes, The Jesus Lizard, and Flipper
It said people in Portland tend to be fans of those bands
I got Burlington! I'm not gay as far as I'm aware but whenever someone asks me what kind of music I like in the future, the answer will be "gay music".
I was placed in Salt Lake City, Utah. I guess I'm Mormon?
You guess? Statistically, you are so Mormon, Spotify knows what kind of underwear you have on.
Fort Collins, Colorado for me
Bozeman, MT for me, apparently because I listen to a fair bit of Jason Isbell and other new-ish alt-country and Americana. Despite the fact that none of my top 5 artists are alt country, the rest of my listening is apparently eclectic enough that nothing else really came close.
I would have thought that having 60-70% of my listening all in a small cluster of esoteric doom-metal-related subgenres would have placed me somewhere with some sort of a metal scene, but apparently not.
It's kind of interesting to see all the weird correlations Spotify has pulled out of thin air. Apparently Fort Collins listens to a lot of Sleep Token, Brandi Carlile, and Jacob Collier.
I was also placed in Fort Collins. Despite being your musical neighbor I don't know any these bands. Wild.
Out of curiosity what bands did it use for your example?
Also do yourself a favor and listen to Sleep Token and Jacob Collier.
My top 5 were Walk the Moon, Dr. Dre, St. Lucia, Passion Pit, and Muse. I will check out your recommendations, always down for some new tunes. Thanks!
Oh man Muse and Walk the Moon are some of my regulars. Haven't heard of St. Lucia or Passion Pit, I'll have to give those a listen.
I listen to a mix of classic rock, alt rock, blues and hip-hop and it gave me Bozeman as well.
That’s fairly close to me as well. Phew, I was worried I might like Country
Fort Collins, CO also
Same. Seems a weird choice, but ok Spotify
Helsinki, Finland.
Brother!
A metalhead spotted
Do you by chance listen to a lot of death metal?
A lot yes, but more Black Metal.
My wife and I share an account. We got Cambridge. Good thing she came out as bi or else we would be having a strange conversation soon
I'm gay and I was somewhere in Germany. Mainly due to the black metal and one American band that is insanely popular in Germany for some reason.
So much so that they recorded their live 20 year anniversary somewhere there
Which American band is that?
Yeah, I guess I could have said their name lol. Boysetsfire. I think they're from Delaware originally. They were political melodic hardcoreish at the beginning so I still jam their first few records hard. But they have a huge following in Germany.
All of my friends who listen to sad lesbian music got Burlington or Berkley.
Technically bi (though my tastes lean gay), I was put in Glasgow for listening to a lot of Steps and CHVRCHES... Given that Glasgow was on the running to host the Gay Olympics this year I guess it could be a close equivalent?
Seeing "Gay Olympics" made me go "wut?", so of course I clicked the link, and it immediately made sense.
Well let's go find out if I'm gay.
Edit: Nope, not gay unfortunately.
It never gave me a city. It worked for my partner. I'm kinda pissed I wasted my time on this.
Provo, USA?
This guy listens to only imagine dragons and neon trees
Hey that’s what I got! But I’m admittedly a massive Taylor Swift fan.
Hahaha I was assigned Burlington by this year's wrapped. Guess I'm moving to the lesbian commune out in Vermont.
I see the gay agenda is proceeding as planned
Vancouver.
Mine put me in Pittsburg. I've never even been there! But I can take a guess as to why... I like CKY 🤣
Pittsburgh here too! Mine is because of from ashes to new, beartooth, and point north. An interesting selection I didn't even realize I've been listening to
San Francisco. Apparently progressive trance is popular there? Idk
Ibiza for me.
I have an account that was used for very limited streaming to a couple of artists. Spotify placed it at Estonia for some reason. None of the artists I listened to are even close to the general area.
It's not based on the artist's locations, but where the listeners for the artists are.
One of the top artists you're listening to prob has a lot of listeners in Estonia
My wife got Oslo, Norway and her top artists were Spanish music and the most poppiest of American pop music. Is cumbia a popular genre in Norway?
Oh ok. Either way, I don't think any of my top artists has a lot of fans there. lol. But if spotify says so, then so be it.
Edit: I use that account to test music from artists that I manage the distribution for. So I can literally see the demographics of listeners from the distribution platform and Estonia is not even in the top 20 of countries where listeners come from.
I got Boulder, CO for Foxygen, Broken Bells, and Blind Pilot.
I also got Boulder with top 3 of King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard, Portugal. The Man, and Flatbush Zombies
Portugal., heck yeah!
Did you feel foolish for subscribing to...fucking anything?? points to the Jolly Roger
No, I don't feel foolish for having basically humanity's entire music library available to me on a service.
When I used to pirate off SoulSeek I was a lot more limited in what I listened to, but Spotify is more than just a music service as it acts as a reliable way to discover new and old music to your liking.
Piracy is a service problem, and Spotify is a good service.
I got Helsinki, Finland for Battledragon, Brother Firetribe, and Velvet
Got the same, Helsinki Finland but for Carpenter Brut and other synth artists.
I got Eugene, OR, which seemed pretty accurate. Seattle, where I actually live, seems more accurate, but I guess not. For anyone curious, my most listened genres were alternative rock, rock, post grunge....
I got Seattle and my top artists were primarily in the Retrowave/Synthwave/Vaporwave genres and one rap (Equipto).
Freiburg im Breisgau. Wrapped called me an Alchemist. And I was in the top 3 of listeners for Sabaton this year.
I got Edmonton, Canada
Halifax, Canada for me. I don't know what that means
I'm pretty sure I'd know already if I was gay.
I dunno, you ever sucked a dick?
Yeah but it was attached to a woman so I’m still gay
Huh? How?
Well if a woman does sexual acts on another woman it’s considered gay
Nope. Never saw the appeal.
Maybe it's more about the taste, the texture, the subtle off-white coloring. The tasteful thickness of it. Oh my God, it even has a watermark.
Well, I was placed in Mexico, but I do enjoy a good ol dick in the ass, what does that make me?
