Roasted 2 years ago based on Martin Lindström's long term Spotify stats.
Wow, Martin Lindström, your Spotify profile reads like a list of musical genres that hipsters put together while aiming for maximum pretentiousness. “Future Bass” and “Vapor Twitch”? Is that music or a new line of energy drinks? And “Swedish Americana”? The only thing more confusing would be “Alaskan Bhangra” or “Scottish Trap.” You could probably make two playlists: one for people who actually want to enjoy music and another for your self-proclaimed “music snob” friends that go around saying, “Oh, you wouldn’t understand my taste.” And let's not even get started on your top artists. Benny Sings? Sounds more like a motivational speaker than a musician. “The Tallest Man on Earth”? Is that a band, or were you just trying to describe your dating pool? I mean, what’s next – “The Shortest Woman on Mars”? With artists like Rikard From and Svaneborg Kardyb, it’s clear your taste is like a really niche farmer’s market: full of obscure picks that appeal only to you and the one guy who’s really into homemade kombucha. Nobody else knows what you're vibing with, but I'm sure they’re relieved they can't hear what’s playing in your headphones right now. And those most played songs, my dude? “Pappersvingarna” sounds like the kind of track you'd play during an elevator ride to the top floor of a self-help seminar for broke hipsters. "Could You Help Me" by Lucy Rose is a fitting title when anyone sees your playlist. You probably need a therapist after exposing yourself to that level of indie misery. If your Spotify history is any indication, I can confidently say your taste in music is like your love life: a lot of longing and confusion, with a sprinkle of funky despair. Keep that music coming, but maybe consider a little less Chamber Pop and a little more Actually Enjoyable.
Roasts are purely for fun and entertainment. They're not meant to be taken seriously. Enjoy the laughs, but remember your music taste is uniquely yours!
