Listening to Last.fm
Last.fm can present music tracks according to several criteria. You may choose from the
following options:
'Create Artist Radio'
- Plays a selection of tracks by a speci
fi
ed artist and other similar artists.
You choose an artist by entering their name or part of their name and then choose from the
search results.
'Create Tag Radio'
- Plays a selection of tracks tagged with certain keywords. You pick a tag
word or genre by entering a word or phrase and then choose from the search results.
Note that it is advisable to be as exact as possible when entering tags or genres. For example,
enter BOLLYWOOD rather than BOLLY. Tags are user-generated and fed to Last.fm via
the scrobbling process, so there can sometimes be spurious tags connected to only a few
tracks, which may give an Insuf
fi
cient Content error when searching.
'Your
Library'
- Plays all tracks scrobbled to your pro
fi
le, or tracks by artists you’ve added to
your library. This information can be edited on the Last.fm web site.
'Your Recommendations'
- Plays tracks recommended to you based on your music pro
fi
le
and that of other listeners with similar tastes.
'Your Neighbourhood'
- Plays tracks from the libraries of people on Last.fm with similar music
taste to yours.
'Your Recent Stations'
- This option lists your most recent Last.fm selections.
'History'
- This option lists the last tracks you have listened to, most recent tracks
fi
rst.
Note
that this is a display-only option - you cannot select a track from the list and listen to it again
on demand.
Note: The listening selections may be changed in the future by Last.fm. The Last.fm stations
list is controlled by Last.fm and is subject to their terms and conditions.
