Record Curation

I build distinctive record collections for a select group of private clients. Every record is chosen for its fidelity, history, and significance, drawing on decades of experience and relationships in the music world.Nothing random. Nothing obvious.

What I Do

I create custom record collections, from the ground up or by refining what you already own.I source records through a network of private collectors, dealers, and specialists, finding exceptional music and pressings that rarely surface through conventional channels.The result is a collection with depth, character, and a point of view. One that reflects your taste while introducing you to music you might never have discovered on your own.

About

I grew up around music and never left it.My first rock concert was the Moody Blues at age four. I grew up in Los Angeles, pressed records in Detroit, and have been part of the New York music scene since the days of CBGB's, well before there were shows in Bushwick, and long before people started referring to records as "vinyl." Along the way, I somehow ended up headbanging in Nirvana's "Smells Like Teen Spirit" video — and, even better, Weird Al's parody.I've spent decades collecting, buying, selling, and studying records across genres and eras. My personal collection numbers around 10,000, and I've built relationships with private sellers, collectors, and dealers around the world.I know what to look for, where to find it, and what makes a record worth owning.
