“My earliest memories are from our living room, sitting on the floor in front of the couch and staring up at the reel-to-reel tape deck that sat (to me) unattainably high up on a shelf.”
“There was something so soothing and mesmerizing about watching it play. The idea that that item was producing the sound that I was hearing was—at that age—beyond magical. When I was still very young, I was given a small plastic suitcase style Fisher-Price record player and some 45s. Even the very limited collection I was granted consumed my existence.
If you love music, in my opinion there is nothing more satisfying than hearing it reproduced physically, the way that it was created. For people, by people. Getting to release my own music on wax was a major goal for me.
Fulfilling it made me tremendously happy.”
