A short history of Paul and his playlists: First I started making mixtapes to play in my car. Then I started making mix cds to share with friends. Later I started sharing playlists with complete strangers on Soundcloud. Now I have a weekly show on Mixcloud for friends, strangers and other music fans. You're invited to listen in to hear alternative rock from XTC to Maneskin and all the decades in between. Listen here:

Well, this is embarrassing.

I was big fan of #XTC in my youth, still listen to them from time to time.

I just asked Alexa to play them.

Me: Alexa. Play XTC

Alexa: OK, here are songs from ecstasy.

Me: What, no, not "ecstasy", I said "XTC"... Oh on, wait...

I've genuinely never made that connection before. XTC is ecstasy!

I've really never realised this before now!

D'oh!
