Yeahhhh gonna go ahead and claim this as my favorite Led Zeppelin release. It just has such a raw energy, and so many... iconic anthems. The harmonica solo in You Shook Me sounds like a wailing banshee, in the best way. How Many More Times is maybe the best driving bassline known to man. show more
Chillwave magnum opus. A silky smooth collection of absolute vibes and instrumental magic. Feels like a warm blanket, or favorite pair of comfy... jeans. Beautiful vocals, cohesive tracklist, maximum groove. Happy 25th anniversary to this genuine classic! show more
To this day, still one of my favorite video game soundtracks. Perfectly captures the feeling of exploring a fantasy world. Stunning, but subtle.... My go-to sleep album on long plane rides. Blows my mind that only 54 minutes of music continues to feel fresh even after 100+ hours of playtime.

One of my all-time favorite live albums. There is no way to describe why. There's an ethereal, dreamlike quality to the instrumentals that... takes my breath away. Clairo's angelic vocals, a highly skilled drummer, a sax player that came to play, and these arrangements surpass the studio versions for me. They're all in the zone, and you can tell Clairo was really trying to elevate herself with the sophomore album cycle. Going from pixie indie heartthrob to one of the most talented young female singer/songwriters of today.
Check out the videos on youtube to really get a taste of the artistry and instrumental skill this group exudes on each and every record. show more
My buddy Robby told me about this artist at Burning Man this year, and then proceeded to drop a couple of their tracks... throughout his sets around the event. I think it speaks directly to the angsty EDM-loving teenager within me. I'm a sucker for pop-punk vocals and hard hitting synths, and this has it all. It's almost like what I wish Porter Robinson had evolved into if he didn't take the uplifting, sugar-coated pop-EDM path.
two bad is an all-time banger. The beatswitch midway through takes no prisoners. 3 is also a high-intensity, industrial grindfest. This album shouldn't be as listenable as is it. Seeing him play in Brooklyn at Warsaw next week! show more
