🗺️ Sound as a Place: How Music Becomes Emotional Geography . AI-Generated.
Close your eyes. Think of the last song that truly moved you. Now think: Where did it take you? Not just emotionally—but physically, spatially. Did it drop you into a rainy city at midnight? A sunlit rooftop in summer? An empty bedroom at 2AM? Did it make you feel like you were somewhere else entirely—maybe even a place that doesn’t exist?

Can We Talk about EPIC: The Musical?
I've been listening to EPIC for a long time. I have every song memorized. I have said "smash" to about every male character in EPIC (What? Their voices are hot!!) This is my longstanding musical addiction. I have fallen in love with some other musicals (Hadestown, The Lightning Thief, etc), but I'm always going to be in love with EPIC.

☀️ Dreamy Summer Vibes Vol. 1 . AI-Generated.
When the air gets warmer and the days stretch a little longer, there’s an unspoken magic that settles over everything. It’s in the quiet stillness of early morning light, the soft hum of a fan in the background, or the way sunlight dances on your skin during a lazy walk home. Dreamy Summer Vibes Vol. 1, the latest compilation from The Yume Collective, captures that magic in musical form.

Rop Redefines Electronic Emotion
In May 2025, electronic artist Rop released his latest project, That Night, a 6-track EP that blurs the line between dancefloor euphoria and intimate emotional reflection. Clocking in at just over 26 minutes, the EP offers a genre-fluid listening experience, weaving together threads of EDM, chill-out, Ibiza-inspired house, and ambient electronica.

Understanding Spotify Playlists:
Over the years of helping independent artists promote their music, I’ve gained a solid understanding of how Spotify works behind the scenes. It’s a complex system that can be confusing, especially if you’re expecting immediate results from playlist placements or promotions. That’s why I want to take a moment to explain how it all works — and how you can use it to your advantage as an artist.

90s Hidden Gems: The Soft Bulletin-The Flaming Lips. Top Story - July 2025.
The Soft Bulletin- (1999) The Flaming Lips The Flaming Lips are an interesting band with quite the expansive history of weird things, such as dancing aliens in Christmas costumes at their concerts, to a shower of balloons coming down on the audiences, to an album that was meant entirely for each track to be played synchronized with each other on many different stereos at once.
