Ah yeah it's a tough balance between highlighting too much, where everything gets buried and it's going to be a pain to click through - and too little, where some might not find stuff they like or miss releases. At the end of the day I just try to push the releases and songs I like and sometimes there are 5, this week 8 :)
Also please consider to put m than 5) because the old way sometimes we would find that a small band that we thought nobody knows or likes besides ourselves was gonna release a new album! Just no need to put some ultra-cheesy ones and case solved! Thanks for your great effort and work. It helps a lot.
5, 8, pi: I would sacrifice my yearly goat for a Spotify playlist that first gives the highlighted names that are being mentioned in the newsletter, and then the ever expanding rest. I need guidance!
I'm not gonna argue with you, because you invest all your time in this, so whatever you say is true.
But!

Wheel is on place #40 in the playlist, whereas it's in your list of 5 best singles. One (ie me) would assume that it would be visible in the top 10 of the playlist too, and not somewhere in the order of the rechterrijtje of the keukenkampioencompetitie, right?
Really good death metal split that comes out on April 26 (technically) but premiered on Decibel on Monday: https://www.decibelmagazine.com/2024/04/08/full-split-stream-draghkar-helcaraxe-a-glorious-call-in-the-terrible-darkness/
Oh nice. I did see there was something from Draghkar coming, but I didn't know what yet. Cheers!
Oh it got partially deleted... I said that I liked the songs of the week better the old way, it was useful (but at least 8 is better than 5!)

I do put the songs I think are most important / best in the top of the playlist..

Ah! Yes! But Wheel came out wednesday, and Ive added it then :)
(I'm taking notes though. I did re-add songs yesterday, just not that one)
