After recently having the time to review some music websites and then wanting to play certain tracks via Spotify, I have become aware of the need to comment on what the hell is happening with the ability to find your favourite tracks on websites?

I don’t mean looking up a known artist like Moby or something and then playing his tracks, but more when you’re looking for music you know and cannot remember the names of. The worldwide web is generally harsh in this regard.

Which leads me to – can Spotify ever replace YouTube?

This was backed up Saturday night after finishing work on my latest track, where I wanted to go back to my roots and listen to some old retro pieces by the likes of Little Heroes (One Perfect Day), Split Enz (I Hope I Never), to mention a couple… and had YouTube never existed, I would never have been able to listen to them because I had to use about five different searches to finally find them!!

Had it not been for glorious YouTube I would have had no chance finding these gems using Spotify.
