The auto-generated playlist was launched 10 years ago to much fanfare, but is it losing sight of what made it great?

After 33 years of people (subconsciously, actively, desperately) wondering where the iconic commentary sample in the Gazzetta Football Italia title music came from — with help from @ngedra, @jacklang and the craque himself, O Diplomata, @heitoreandreflo — we have the answer...

A lot of people exposing themselves and their lack of understanding of what the game is actually about with their reaction to this take. Maybe this will help: The first ever Merseyside derby was in this ground in 1894... 131 years later, after 10,000's of minutes of derby

Back to the future: "The post-pandemic indie landscape... feels more aligned with the no-frills, get-in-the-van attitude of the ’80s." Great piece by @LFitzmaurice in the excellent @HearingThingsCo. https://t.co/RZy27jKmLI

Not so long ago, indie music was riding high, minting new stars and lasting careers with ease. But for a new generation of artists, financial stability is all but impossible.

Very excited to say we are running Kitmas again this year! We collect pre-loved football shirts, and raise money to buy new ones, for children who may not otherwise receive a Christmas present. Please help make our 5th year our biggest yet! https://t.co/jlmnldv6fS

Refereeing is basically a nightmare now. Is it really a huge surprise a Premier League official should end up brutalised and spitting toxins on a sofa?

By rejecting royalties on _In Utero_ alone, Steve Albini turned down about two million bucks. Putting principle before personal enrichment is one reason why he's one of the extremely few producers (sorry, Steve) whom great numbers of people would mourn. Money isn't everything.
