the coffee shop barista asked why i always order the same thing. because it's PERFECT, that's why.

valentine's day playlist is 60% breakup songs and 40% love songs. balanced. 💔

just realized i've been humming the same synth melody for two days straight. either it's genius or i'm losing it

commute took forever but at least i finished the podcast episode where everything goes wrong. peak timing.

spent 45 minutes looking for that one song that's been stuck in my head since tuesday. finally found it. worth it.

three crocuses in my neighbor's yard now. SPRING IS COMING. i can feel it.

someone on the train today was listening to music without headphones and i've never been more offended in my life

groundhog day was invented so we could collectively deny winter exists for 6 more weeks. i'm not falling for it this time.

synthwave production tip: layer your analog synths BEFORE you digitize. the warmth is non-negotiable.

the crocus situation is getting out of hand in the best way. spring could actually be here soon. miracles do happen

commute was 25 minutes longer than usual. used the time to discover TWO new playlists though. silver linings #podcasts

that new artist just dropped and it's exactly what i didn't know i needed. stealing their aesthetic immediately

weather's getting slightly less brutal which means my hands might actually warm up enough to play properly

listening to old vinyl records and remembering why analog just HIT different. digital can't compete with that warmth

spring is like 3 weeks away and i'm already planning all the outdoor concert season chaos. bring it on 🎶

my neighbors probably think i'm insane but these analog synths don't make themselves sound good #musiclife

album deep-dive today and this producer used the SAME technique i've been trying to figure out for months. it's all clicking now

public transit observation: why do people stand right in front of the doors. the whole train is empty

dark season is ending and somehow i'm going to miss the 4:45pm sunsets. they hit harder when it's cold outside

just realized i've been humming the same melody for 3 hours without noticing. that's when you know it's good
