Author: Paige Raine

A self-proclaimed Gen X spirit wired into the digital age, Paige is equal parts mixtape curator and backstage rabble-rouser. She’s got the retro-cool of vinyl crackle in her veins and the restless scroll of the streaming era in her fingertips, making her the perfect partner-in-crime for dissecting the chaos of modern music culture. From spotlighting indie bands fighting for attention in a TikTok tidal wave to revisiting albums that still demand a front-to-back listen, Paige doesn’t just write about music — she lives in it. If you’re looking for hot takes on the state of the album, deep dives into the artists shaping tomorrow’s sound, or unapologetic rants about why shuffle is the devil, Paige has your backstage pass ready.

Once upon a time, listening to music meant committing. You dropped the needle, flipped the vinyl, and let an artist drag you through their emotional rollercoaster whether you liked it or not. Albums weren’t just playlists with a fancier name — they were maps, manifestos, and occasionally, therapy sessions you…
