[EDIT: Tweaking this to be any sort of streaming music that serves you a playlist it generates. Google Play Music, Amazon, Spotify, Pandora, etc are a go!]
I thought I'd do the NotN grind a new way, seeing that I just received a Google Home mini and have been enjoying playing around with it....
So here's my challenge to myself (and any of you that want to play along):
Say "OK Google*, play me some (genre/style here) music"
Grind as much as possible for four songs straight
Engage in a bounty of music discovery/re-discovery
List the songs and the holiday loot I came across here
In addition, I'm choosing to impose the following conditions on myself:
Whatever genre/style I pick, that's the genre/style for every grind that day
No switching venues mid-session. Once I start a grind, I'm in that venue for four songs.
(* : If you're in the Amazon camp, feel free to substitute "Hey Alexa" here. Siri users may also participate as long as they promise to behave...)

Well now I need to try this, I'll be back in about 12-15 min after I try out what I call my "butt shaking music" on pandora. It started as a Fergi station but quickly mutated. Cheers and wish my luck for neat drops :D
