Here's another reason for these playlist hops. When listening to a run-through of an album there are times when an awareness is built that what you're hearing is all too much the same. A band is defined by what they create. They'll quicken the tempo or break it down but it all is a variation of the sound that defines them. Sometimes my attention just can't hold on for the album haul. Instead of single songs, all I can hear is one symphonic flush.
So out with a playlist.
Cherry pick those songs out of its intended context and spin 'em to the order that tap dances in my head. No longer lost in the flush of one sound, now each tune takes its own stage, individually highlighted. It's easier to appreciate something when you place it where you want to be.
