Heavy Rotation is a monthly recap of the songs I’ve been obsessed with for one reason or another. While I do love themed playlists for a whole slew of hyper specific scenarios (gym, morning, deep work, doing your taxes) I feel like algorithms have ruined those for all of us.
So, think of Heavy Rotation as purely a discovery playlist with a wide range of styles and moods. While the focus tends to be on newer releases, there are always a couple of older treasures mixed in, too.
Please please: If you make some nice discoveries go out there and buy yourself a copy (digital or physical) or go see their show when these artists roll through your town. Support artists, labels, record stores, venues.
Merci!
