Jeff Noller (Skittish)

SPB: How has the increasing digitalization of the music industry changed how you listen to music?

Noller: I feel like I hear a lot less “deep cuts.” I used to be limited to only the CDs I brought with me on a trip, thus propelling me into the depths of an album rarely explored. Which led to a lot of songs that I ended up liking more than the main hits. It was also nice to rip open a package and lay on the floor perusing through the booklet artwork as the album plays. All of this gave me more of a connection to the artist. Now I've traded connection for convenience. Which, I suppose, can be applied to many things in this digital age.
