Oftentimes when some people think about music genres, they think binary. It’s either this or that. It’s either House or Trance. It’s either Techno or Psy-Trance. But I think of genres as a spectrum, like the adjustable sliders in photo editing apps.

Since arguing about genres can be endless, I’ve created audio example playlists of how I define them.

A quick look into the mind of a music curator.

Starting today, I’m officially joining the Beatport team and taking on the role of music curator
