Happy Friday Everyone!

Today I was having a bit of photographer’s block, so I decided to rediscover my surroundings, starting with my turntable. My parents gave it to me for Christmas some years ago and it quickly turned into one of my most prized possessions. While I, of course, still have digital music, there is something special about the careful and meticulous nature that comes with owning records. You have to take good care of them and they are a hobby in themselves because of the care it takes to maintain and set up the record for use. The round, full tones of the sound it is able to produce make for a listening experience like nothing else. As both a musician and a lover of music, there is nothing I appreciate more than an afternoon filled with listening to my records.
