As I start to get back into the swing of things, I think the perfect album to start things off is Odesza’s latest, the Last Goodbye Tour. Just like most releases from Odesza, this one took me by surprise. I knew they were on tour, but I didn’t quite expect them to record a show […]

I’ll be honest that I wasn’t expecting an album to drop from Odesza, let alone a collab. So, this was a wonderful surprise that I was happy to indulge in. Prior to this album dropping, I didn’t know who Yellow House was. I was quite delighted to find a new artist whom I can support.

Another week, another record to drink tasty beverages to. Or at least that’s what my wife would probably accuse me of. Today, I want to take a step back and listen to one of the greatest folk/rock albums to be put to vinyl – in my humble opinion of course. I’m actually a bit surprised

I would be lying if I said I wasn’t giddy when I heard about Abraham’s first full length album. I was introduced to him by way of Leon Bridges – another well loved artist in my household. That said, Abraham has slowly climbed the ranks as my top played due to his voice and how

On the turntable for review this week is an album I used to listen to religiously – James Blake’s Overgrown. I know his first album garnered a lot of attention, but I am a hardcore believer that Overgrown is his best, by far. Why, you may ask? Well you just had to, didn’t you. I

For the last two years, I’ve talked about a yearly advent calendar that my lovely wife puts together for me. We’re on the fifth year now and every year it’s been a wonderful replacement for normal gifts. To be honest, it suits me better anyways as I have a terrible habit of purchasing anything I

In this final chapter to my Advent Calendar posts, I’d like to take a moment to thank my wife who has put this together every year four years running. I know that four years may not seem like much, but when you consider that it’s always beers I’ve never had, I’d like to think it’s

It’s been a while. And as you might have guessed, I’ve been busy. For those in the know, buying a house and getting ready to move has a way of keeping you busy. We’re a few weeks out yet, but that still means packing away most of the “spare” audio gear. Don’t worry though, that

Taking a step back into the early days of my vinyl collection, I happened upon this gem. Well, gem in my opinion. Back when I was just getting my collection started, I went into a brief craze of buying albums purely based on album art. I know what you’re thinking. Luckily (or not), this only

In my last post, I talked about the yearly tradition my wife started of creating a custom advent calendar of beers I’d never tried before. In short, she picked twenty five new beers and ordered them by rating (in Untappd) from worst to best. In my last post, I detailed the first six that I
