“Look, you're often not going to particularly like the music, but, boy, it's discursive, and I learnt things. I recommend Mercy (etc) for its enthusiasm, dedicated pan-generational "nicheism" – and why not get some music in your inbox every day? ”
Chris Taylor, ChinaDiction
“In a music rut? This newsletter has shown me a lot of new music from a range of genres! I can guarantee that there is a song for everyone.”

“Joyce listens to a lot of records, and likes birthdays, though not her own birthday. In fact, the year she turned 50, she told her friends she was turning 51 so they wouldn't throw a big milestone party. No one ever thinks you're ADDING a year. ”
