Lazlo's Corner

So it is time to be honest.

The last almost a year now has been hard on all of us in one way or another. For a long time I was holding it together and keeping myself busy with BlowUpRadio.com and life in general, but a couple of months ago I burned out.

Hopefully you didn't notice, but for several weeks BlowUpRadio.com was running on what I like to call "autopilot".

Most of the new music I listened to I could tell had value, but I was so burned out that I was not finding joy in most of it. The more I tried to force myself to enjoy the music, the worse that burn out felt. Luckily, because less new music comes out near the end of the year, there was less for me to listen to, giving me time to delve back into "comfort albums". Most of the time I am listening to new music, so I rarely get to kick back with an old or new album that I truly love. This is something I am going to try to change, because spending a week last month just listening to music I love for the sheer joy of it, reignited my love of new music.

But it made me think, especially during these strange times, maybe people would enjoy BlowUpRadio.com more if I did include some music they knew (i.e. "comfort music") along with the New Jersey indie music, which is likely from artists are not as familiar with.

Don't worry, I don't plan to change BlowUpRadio.com's regular format, but I am wondering if doing a show where I mixed NJ indie music with music you would recognize, sort of a 50-50 mix, would be something you would be interested in listening to? I would love to hear back from you, so please let me know your thoughts.

Thanks!
