I'm reviewing a new album every day.
I’ve set myself a goal to listen to one album every day for 365 days and write a review about each one.
I've been getting lazy with discovering new music, relying on an algorithm to recommend things to me. But the algorithms are crap these days and streaming platforms are heaving with AI-generated slop, so I’ve decided to go back to discovering music the old-fashioned way: I’ll be doing research and listening to albums that people recommend to me, just like our ancestors used to.
Want to recommend an album? Please contact me through the form.
