I remember coming across Spotify’s annual Year in Music feature for the first time at the end of 2014. As a sporadic music forager, I found it quite relieving to see that someone (or some machine), somewhere, could map out large themes in my music listening history, from top genres to seasonal clusters of artists and albums. The Year in Music served as an educational experience for me in other senses, too; for instance, my favorite genre of the year turned out to be a hybrid I had never encountered before, called “dreamo” (short for dreamy emo).
