It’s been exactly two years to the day since I last published something on this blog. Some would say it’s coincidental, yet I feel like it’s some sort of fate in relation to changes that have fallen upon me in recent months that is leading me to write again. I originally set up this blog […]
SoundCloud’s Identity Crisis
I’m proud to say that I’ve been a user of SoundCloud for five years. That may not seem like a lot of time, but concerning the music industry, that means ages. Back then, this platform was the solution to everything I could have possibly wanted from a music platform: it was clean, stylish, easy, intuitive, […]

Real Estate Players: Building Your Media The Right Way

Track of the Week: “Weak” by AJR.
I first heard AJR’s indie pop track “Weak” last Friday as I was listening to Kiss 108 and gunning it through Boston’s Callahan Tunnel. All I’ll say is I’m lucky Siri can work hands-free because I would have been pretty bummed if I wasn’t able to figure out what this track was. AJR’s “Weak” is […]
