What are your favourite genres?
Classic rock, metal, psychedelic rock
How did you first get into collecting records?
For me, it began as a whole life philosophy. I noticed how everyone is constantly rushing, so I made a conscious choice to slow down and go back to analog. I love the idea of returning to authentic, high-fidelity music where you sit and appreciate an entire album instead of just skipping around. It really grounds you in the present moment, and that’s a mindset I want to share with people who are caught up in the daily hustle.
What’s your turntable setup like?
"Turntable: Rega Planar 1
Receiver: Vintage Pioneer E-1000-A/H (Classic soul)
Speakers: Dali Kupid Bookshelf"
What’s your best advice for people starting their vinyl journey?
My biggest piece of advice is just to breathe and slow down. Really try to enjoy the slowness of the process. Seek out real music, truly own your collection, and take back control of your listening experience instead of letting an algorithm run the show.
