Schmutzie’s February 2026 Playlist

This playlist is out on 8 platforms:

Apple Music & Spotify (63/64) & Tidal (62/64) & Qobuz (55/64) & Deezer & Amazon Music (55/64) & YouTube Music & Last.fm (63/64)

I love lists and facts, so, to continue:

50% of the songs are from 2025/2026, and the complete original playlist on Apple Music is about 4 hours long with 64 songs across 9 decades and 19 genres: alternative, Americana, blues, comedy, contemporary folk, dance, electronic, hard rock, hip-hop/rap, indie pop, indie rock, jazz, pop, pop latino, pop punk, punk, R&B/soul, rock, and singer/songwriter. The songs are in reverse order by year and then in alphabetical order by artist within each year.

These monthly playlists are a bit of a music history sampler moving backwards through time if you play the songs in order, but I like to hit shuffle and let them surprise me.
