On BTE4 there was always a big split in music preference, with half the users preferring the more chilled out indie music we posted, and the other half liking the dubstep and electro. Now we’ve expanded our writers a bit, we’ve got the luxury of variety, and we can offer you both.

Future track packs will be split into two sections:

Addiction will offer you pumped up electro, dubstep, hip-hop and dnb, giving you all the ingredients for a good night out.
Recovery will give you the perfect morning after cure, with an eclectic mix of indie, lo-fi, alternative, and all things easier on the ear.

I’m going to be taking over the Addiction packs, whilst Adam will be in charge of Recovery. There’s going to be a lot of overlap inevitably, but if one of them is slacking, you know who the buck stops with!

Just to get the concept flowing, this first post is going to include a nice selection of both.
