How I Came Up With The Tracklist

I browsed through my albums on iTunes and on Spotify to come up with ideas for my own tracklist. I took ideas from the song names to come up with my own and also took some of the names that I thought matched the indie folk genre.
L.I.F.E.G.O.E.S.O.N was an obvious choice for the album as that's our chosen song.
From the Jaws 'Milkshake - EP' I took Toucan Surf.
From The Front Bottoms' album 'Rose' I took 'Flying Model Rockets'.
From the 'Submarine - EP' I took Hiding Tonight.
I decided to take the name of the band Honeyblood and use that as a song name on my tracklist, as I felt it fit both rolls quite well.
I took Undercover Martyn from Two Door Cinema Club, Happy People from Peace, Stars Are Aligned from Darlia, Same Jeans from The View and We Can Do What We Want Drenge.
These are all bands/artists that appeal to me.






These photos show the process of deciding what songs to put on my tracklist, and how many I could have used as well. I felt some song names were inappropriate for my own album and for the indie folk genre as a whole. Fidlar's 'Cocaine' is an example of what definitely wouldn't suit the genre. Some of the bands/artists that I decided on wouldn't fit the genre, but the names seemed to suit.
