last.fm normalizer
There is also another tool which uses this data so that you can embed in your last.fm profile -- but I can't remember the address now.
See also here for other last.fm mashups.
Music I Discovered This Week
1. Steve Reich
2. DJ Shadow
3. More of Aphex Twin ( The Tuss)
4. Squarepusher
5. The Orb
6. My Bloody Valentine
7. Public Enemy
Note to self:
More of Reich, more of minimalism, some Stockhausen in the following weeks.
Later: More trip-hop maybe, then PJ Harvey, Tori Amos etc.

Search for user generated playlists in Last.fm using Google
SNR of playlists is higher than tag based last.fm radios. So I decided to hunt for playlists containing artists I want to listen.
Searching for such playlists is pretty simple, just search for:
site:last.fm "play this playlist" "aphex twin"
on Google.
Replace "aphex twin" with your choice of artist.
See also: http://www.last.fm/api/playlists
Using URIs on that page, one can listen to the playlists in the last.fm software. For example, if the ID of the playlist is 2564278, go to lastfm://playlist/2564278 . (The ID is retrieved from the location bar, which will have the following form: http://www.last.fm/listen/playlist/2564278/shuffle ) This is currently broken since it only allows 30-second previews on the client software, unlike the Flash player on the web site which allows full length song listening. As a remedy, try lastfm://user/ustunozgur/playlist. Replace ustunozgur with the name of the user.
