HIGHLY RECOMMENDED W/ SIGNIFICANT OTHER
“Finding things that pop you out of negative or moody moments. Its different for everyone and sometimes different depending on the day! But equally important!”
Fandcamp: The Songs Of David Bowie
“I don't usually go for tribute albums but this one is an exception. Really great selection of tunes performed by some of my favorite bands! Heartless Bastards face melting version of version of Jean Genie and Ume's Suffragette City are only two of many high points in this album. Worthwhile!”
HIGHLY RECOMMENDED W/ THE VELVOIDS
“On an everyday, more down-to-earth level, I’m going to go with cooking. Cooking will mellow you out.”
FANDCAMP: Land of No Junction
“Close your eyes, turn the volume up and just let the music take you somewhere different, somewhere nice.”

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED W/ SCIENCE IS FICTION
“Find something you enjoy doing, whether you’re good at it or not, and make time for that. It’s a self-prescription for your mental health. I’d recommend making music!“
HI54LO5: Tiger King
“Tiger King is Making A Murderer + Wild Wild Country + The Jerry Springer Show + Siegfried & Roy + We Bought A Zoo. And unless you’re a completely different person than I, then that sounds like something worth watching.”
