A Playlist For Life's "Special" Moments

With the meteoric rise of iPods and other MP3 players, there seems to be an increasing fascination with the whole “playlist” phenomenon. Whether it’s the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit issue listing a model’s playlist, or Men’s Health Magazine looking for the best workout playlist, it seems like we want to know what other people are listening to, and when. The problem is, the mainstream media continues to pump out monotonous drivel regarding the best playlists for relaxing after work, going to the gym, or throwing an ass-shakin’ bash. Luckily for everyone, I like to think of it as my job to keep loyal DV readers one step ahead of the societal learning curve. For that reason, I have put together some unheralded playlists for those oft-overlooked moments when the right music makes all the difference in the world.

The iPod has become a ubiquitous presence in our daily lives.  Whether on subways, in malls, or attached to the girl you’ve been stalking, you can’t go five minutes without seeing someone’s earbuds showing.  But it didn’t start out like this.  Humankind has been striving to make music portable for millennia, and the iPod is just one in a string of innovations.   Presented here, courtesy of Double Viking, is our official Barely Researched Timeline of Portable Music.
