PRAISE FOR THE ANNOTATED MIXTAPE
“Throughout the collection, Harmon conveys the deep connection between music and memory. With each chapter—typically framed by an artist, song, label, and release year—he takes vivid snapshots of personal and historical moments in time. Harmon is more than a music connoisseur; he’s a fanatic, and there’s a thrilling texture to each reflection and recollection.... Harmon traces the beauty and complications of the human compulsion to catalog life—whether it is through music, movies, books, photography, travel, or even social media—in an attempt to make sense of how we fit in the world.”
—The Rumpus
