Vinyl novice, festival pro, and the hand that curates Better Spins.

Long-time festival vet here, first time heading to the Valley. To prepare, I spent some time researching all 167 artists on the 2023 lineup so that I can soak in as much new music discovery (and of course old favorites) while I’m out West.

It’s been 7 years since Worlds, the wait is finally over!

From the brilliants minds who brought you Nude Nuns with Big Guns comes the lyrical gold of “I Saw a Tiger” and “Here Kitty Kitty.”

“Subtly painful explorations” of a “tasteful euphemism” about an “uncomfortable truth” #heavy

Not your typical behind the scenes look.

Vibed with some old favorites and discovered new jams, one of which I can only describe as CloZee meets a Michael Bay movie.

Applying my surplus of concert ticket budget to vinyl, picked up some new wax that are a big hit with Colin & Ellie.

Better Spins playlist for the week of May 4th, 2020. Featuring RAC, Childish Gambino, and Tame Impala.

Just when you thought 2020 couldn’t get any worse.

Grammy & Emmy winners, the world lost 2 special talents.

YouTube is a powerful (and global) public health forum.

Electronic music to keep your mind focused, minimal vocals.
