Other than saying it's electronic and instrumental, it's hard to pigeonhole this album genre-wise. But it plays with some nice moody sounds, with a range of pace and busyness.

Hi @benpate, I've been listening to some albums on BandWagon. A couple of UX notes. Would be great if;
* Album had human-readable permalinks mentioning the artist, album name and release year, eg https://bandwagon.fm/six-umbrellas/2018/ad-astra
* When I paused an album during play, the page keeps indicating what song I'm in the middle of, and how far through it
* I could navigate around the site, eg to look at the artist profile, without the player stopping, or having to open a new browser tab

Would also be a neat feature if artists had an equivalent of a blogroll, where they could nominate other artists on BandWagon (and ideally elsewhere) to appear in a dedicated place on their profile. There could even be a separate set of recommendations per album. Eg on the page where I listened to Ad Astra I can see 3-5 albums @sixumbrellas thinks I might like too if I enjoyed Ad Astra. Organic discovery, driven by decentralised human curation.

BTW @benpate I just realised I've been tagging BW-related posts using your @bandwagon account. Oops! I've just edited those posts to correct that, so you might get a rash of notifications about them.
I just ran a test and it seems that PeerTube doesn't notify you of your account being mentioned, which is a bit of an interop fail. I'm guessing BW does notify accounts that they've been mentioned? Since Lorenzo's Music replied when I commented on their post here;
