A guide to CD collecting

A guide to CD collecting About a year ago I began collecting CDs, I'd been wanting to start doing something of the sorts for a while, with the most obvious choice being vinyl as they're back in fashion at the minute and are pretty awesome. Unfortunately, being a student with very little room and money, it was a bit unrealistic to be able to afford a decent record player, storage for the records and to be able to grow my collection at a decent rate. So I turned to CDs, and I honestly couldn't be happier. Currently I have just over 125 CDs in my collection, all neatly alphabetised and sorted which go very nicely in a cheap CD shelf which doesn't take up too much room and cost me far less money than they're worth according to Discogs. For anyone who wants to start a music collection or simply wants a physical reminder of the music and artists they love, I would highly reccomend CDs. But, like everything, there are a few tips and tricks that take a bit of working out

50 of the saddest songs of all time

50 of the saddest songs of all time I've been putting this one off for a while, simply because I've just been trying to be a bit more creative than listing sad songs, which realistically makes up the majority of my music library. But I've decided to just bite the bullet and do it, so here we are. There's a good mix in here as always, the majority are indie but I've chucked the odd rock, metal and pop song in there for the fun of it. Not every one of these is the most obviously devastating song (although there are plenty that are), but in their own way each one is truly heartbreaking. I've tried to stick to one song per artist but in a few places this just wasn't possible, but who cares? Just a quick content warning, there are mentions of mental health issues, suicide and drug use/ abuse, so just watch out in case you're sensitive to that. As always there's a playlist to go with the list, as well as my larger sad songs playlist linked. So in no partic

My Favourite Emo Songs

My Favourite Emo Songs I know that Emo is not the most loved genre by people who are not fans of the music, it's a bit cringey, melodramatic, repetitive and ultimately outdated. However, it's an important part of alternative rock music and music culture as a whole, and I just absolutely love it. I was going to do a list of essential emo songs before I realised that's kind of impossible and been done far too many times, so I've just gone with 25 of my favourite emo songs. This isn't a list of "pure" emo, it's fairly varied and not everything on the list are songs that everyone would even call strictly emo but I reckon they fit into the label fairly well. I've decided to branch out from my usual 10 or so simply because there are so many brilliant songs and it's in no particular order. 1. Joyce Manor - Constant Headache A song that sounds pretty fucked up if you listen to the lyrics too closely, but really just a track that epitomizes modern emo,
