This site is, along with many over the years, temporary & intended as something of an anonymous repository of stray-thoughts-into-extended-observations around music & its adjacencies, away from day zero marketing phases & greater commercial properties. I have this domain / host paid up (a whopping $95.88 all-in) through October, 2026 & it’ll be a miracle if the focus perserveres; time will tell (generally speaking, it tends to).

Style-wise I’d been thinking of the three-columns-of-liner-notes-on-the-back trope when putting all of this together & hopefully I’ll be able to flesh the design out accordingly (although the single center column reads beautifully on phones; exactly how I would assume folks engage anyways).

Not to hammer this point, but there are no ads on this site (or even links aside from “Dictionary” style traceback & clarifications); the time & resources used to generate all of this should have been applied in a far more efficient manner via therapy, but so it goes. A majority of the equipment or gear discussed in non-speculative terms was purchased; music (for the most part, in one form or another) similarly. Posts are constantly in flux; I’ll bang them out one moment while high on insomnia and/or caffeine, then recoil in factors of cringe the next & whittle them back from the brink; it’s a process.

Get in touch if you need anything clarified; email is algodon@difficult.music. Thanks for reading.
