Audrey Goes to the Library
Back in my teenage days, I’d roll into the library and walk out with a towering stack of CDs - each one chosen based on pure vibes.
I’d sneak em home, fire up my ancient laptop, and covertly rip those tracks to my iTunes, building a secret soundscape one album at a time.
No rhyme or reason to the order, but here’s a handful of favorites from that era. Mostly indie/indie adjacent.
