MP3's feel a little redundant in todays streaming world so I'm thinking of making my posts into a monthly Spotify playlist going forward.
It's been a shitter of a year and really hope everyone is doing as well as can be expected. We will come through the other side of this pandemic, sooner than was expected.
No matter how big or small you feel your struggle has been, please know that you have done well and that brighter times are ahead
I still collect and archive a huge amount of music that goes back so many years and I will cherish that forever but it really does feel like the MP3 has had it's day with the advent of streaming and the introduction of FLAC as the file of choice that there is limited scope for the blog anymore.
I had some of the most amazing times finding and sharing music over the years in what was a pivotal time for me personally and for so many artists who slowly established themselves into what is now a mature market for online distribution of music.
I don't think we'll ever get a time like 2006-2010-2013 again. Times have moved on but let's not stop the good sounds from being heard through whatever medium suits us best!
Thank you all so much for following this blog over the years, you have played a massive part in my life :)
