But it started to resemble a switchboard: cables, gear, chaos.
​

​
Now I work from my studio, where I’m writing this newsletter.
​
No clutter. No mess.
​

​
A few books (like this one) and 2 small figurines.

​Wowee Zowee by Pavement is one of indie rock’s most adventurous albums. Chaotic in the best way. Full of fuzzed-out guitar riffs, sudden stylistic shifts, and lyrics that veer between the surreal and sublime. A record that doesn’t beg for understanding, but rewards curiosity and repeated listens.
