- parhamn 6y agoI just listened to "Lullabies For Little Crimes" and "Circles", it was great! I'm really happy Spotify found a way to surface artists like this who deserve attention!
- andygcook 6y agoAgreed. After an initial listening, it's clear Steve's really talented. Which admittedly probably helps with the earning money part of the article. It's kind of like that PG quote: "What Customers Want - It's not just startups that have to worry about this. I think most businesses that fail do it because they don't give customers what they want. Look at restaurants. A large percentage fail, about a quarter in the first year. But can you think of one restaurant that had really good food and went out of business?" (edit - formatting)
- dataqat 6y agoI can think of many restaurants with really good food that went out of business... that's a terrible analogy. Certainly a very helpful ingredient, though maybe not even the main one.
- andygcook 6y agoI agree that it's definitely not a foolproof analogy. But good food (like good music) is usually a table-stakes ingredient for a successful restaurant. Again of course again, there are exceptions there too.
- feteru 6y agoYeah I can think of a few. Some just couldn't manage expenses, whether it was ingredients or rent.
- elliottkember 6y agoI didn't recognize his name but went to listen to "Circles". Turns out it was on my Discover Weekly a few weeks back, I recognized it immediately. Pretty catchy song. Will have to check out some of his others.
- steve-benjamins 6y agoThat's amazing!! Very serendipitous :)
