The Theremin
The theremin. This instrument has been around since the 1920s. It’s nearly 100 years old, which makes it very young by instrument standards. But it’s gaining popularity again due to YouTube. ~J.

Depends
I’m a big fan of Celine Dion, again. However, playing her lower in volume helps. I also have a huge throwback list of music from the late 80s to early 2000s. ~J. Lyst My music taste hasn’t changed much in the last 30 years or so. Continue reading
