I love New Zealand music and I want to support young, new and emerging artists in a way that gives them something to share and builds some hype about the cool shit that they do.
So I started a substack and have posted my first gig review!
The artist appreciated it and now it’s been read by over 40 people, and I have 20 random subscribers who I don’t know…
Feels pretty good to hype others up in this way.
so yea - start a newsletter about your niche interest, you might be surprised how many people think that’s pretty neat and worth reading

i started a substack back in the fall and the only people who read it are a handful of my friends. it’s a lot of fun because i write about whatever i want and they read it no matter what. sometimes they give feedback. so cute!

I want weekly / monthly updates of everyone’s lives. There’s so many topics to choose from music, movies, deep dives, life the list goes on and on. This is also a ploy to plug my own Substack that went live today check it out or don’t :)

fav substack I’m subscribed too!! a monthly newsletter focused on a more mindful connection to music, highlighting albums in their entirety.
(mb I’m biased bc it’s written by my gf but hear me out…)
always great writing, huge genre range, and i always find a couple new artists I have yet to delve deep with.
I’ve fallen victim to mindlessly consuming my Spotify algorithm which means I’m pretty disconnected with most artists and albums. Music Baby gets me excited to dive into a full album & check out musicians in their entirety!

i have friends for coffee, friends for late nights on the town, friends for smoking weed and playing smash bros, friends for long walks, friends for long talks
it’s not that i compartmentalise, it’s just that i meet my friends where they’re at, and that seems to work for us

Honestly the best feeling
I like to read a bit and unwind for the day then crash before 9:30
I embrace the nana in me

Go to the gig. Dance by yourself. Maybe you’ll make a friend, but not having someone there with you shouldn’t stop you from enjoying good music and connecting with an artist you love. Stand in the front. No one behind you matters. The night is yours, if you take it.
Go to the movies alone. Go to cafes alone. Take yourself out on dates. Go to the bookshop and buy something pretentious and wanky. Sit in a crowded bar reading about Sylvia Plath’s fig tree or Plato’s Cave.
Don’t believe that you need to be holding someone’s hand to enjoy the sunset. The sunset is just as golden when you drink it in alone.
