This is only the second newsletter and playlist, but I'm having a lot of fun with this project and should have done this years ago! I hope you're enjoying listening to each playlist as much as I am.

This playlist is more than twice as long as January's, and I hope that this is the average length going forward.

I'm on Apple Music and Spotify, where you can follow along and see what I am listening to (I'm usually more active on Apple Music but use Spotify a good amount). You can also follow me on Twitter: @mikerastiello is my personal account, and @downbeatfm is the one I set up for this project and occasionally tweet out what I'm listening to.

I am a huge, massive fan of Radiohead's OK Computer - in fact, it's in my top five albums of all time. Here is a cover of The Tourist as by Pile on The AV Club's Undercover series that I can't get enough of.
