Exploring outside of the mainstream in music. The stuff you won't hear on the radio. Particular attention is paid to overlooked, creative, influential, sometimes out of print and hard to find, but always it's good music. Rock, progressive, experimental, jazz, pop, new wave, post punk are all represented often. Other than that, it's music I like.
