Hey kids. 

Ever had one of those days/years when you reach a point when you’re like “fuck it,” pack a bag and head off to some faraway place for a soul-searching/cleansing journey? I have. And today, the winter solstice, the day the world was supposed to end, I’m off for a long journey to Europe where I won’t likely be blogging.

Enjoy your holidays. Don’t get too drunk with grandma. Hope Santa brings you lots of vinyl and vintage synthesizers.

Thank you all for being amazing, loyal readers of my obsessive music explorations around the world wide web. I love you all more than you know. Seriously, this blog keeps me sane. 

If I do post, it’ll probs be easy mobile shit on Twitter + Instagram. Follow there if you wanna hear about weirdo Parisian experimental artists I meet, or look at photos of my daily espressos et croissants.

Lots to look forward to in twenty-oh-thirteen. #MEGABLAAG at SXSW in March. New (sick) releases on Small Plates Records. The newly invigorated #music page on Tumblr (of which I will be a contributing editor). And of course, hanging with you all here in the mysterious wilds of the interweb.

If you need something awesome to listen to, have a listen to the archive of my all-time favorite radio show The Naked Gun which just sadly called it quits this summer after an awesome run on WKDU, “Philadelphia’s only free format, non-commercial radio station”. #RIP2012.
