Three albums per month

Discontinued!

This gemlog is discontinued! This page is here for historical interest. Don't worry, I'm still writing about music!

A music discovery and review gemlog

I'm on a quest to eliminate wasteful and low-effort streaming from my music listening habits, to discover new sounds that I enjoy, and to feel a bit more connected to and knowledgable about my music in general. You can getter a better understanding of the backstory for this project by reading some posts to my gopher phlog:

Music milestone ponderings

Actually listening to music again, part 1

Actually listening to music again, part 2

For as long as I feel it's serving a purpose, I'm going to purchase 3 albums off Bandcamp every month, and listen to them as albums, i.e. start to end in order, instead of throwing 'em into a big pile of stuff to randomly shuffle through.

At this gemlog, I'll be documenting what those albums are and, hopefully, giving each of them a review. I'm doing this mostly for my own sake, but if you enjoy reading them or listening to this music too, that's great as well!
