Honestl, that playlist looks dead on.
Somehow my Spotify time capsule playlist put “Get Your Roll On” by Big Tymers first and now i'm entirely sure the computers will win.

Time Capsule may convince you that the computers will take over…
I'm not in the right place, emotionally, to listen to my Time Capsule mix @Spotify.

Of course, Time Capsule may be so accurate you gotta steel yourself.
I'm weirdly proud that Spotify's “time capsule” is so inaccurate for me, cementing my status as a true indie kid lol

Then again, you may be an indie outlier who's just too cool for Time Capsule!
