Why don’t we talk about these ’90s bands anymore?

Hello friends, My Forever Analog YouTube channel will always have a main focus on gear updates, product reviews and physical media collecting. But, I also want to incorporate another video style in 2026 that simply focuses on music. I posted my first video in this format style a few weeks ago about bands from the 1990's that we've forgotten about, or at least aren't talked about as much as bands like Alice In Chains, Smashing Pumpkins, Nirvana, Pearl Jam and more. I sell a lot of CDs by those artists to a new generation of fans just discovering this era of music, but I worry they might not know about the next level of artists from that era that were just as great, even if they weren't as popular. I posted the video below highlighting a handful of 90s bands that I think deserve more visibility...I mean Nirvana wouldn't have even happened without some of these bands before them paving a way! If you have time, please consider checking out this video and let me know what you think of this new format. Again, my main focus will always be on gear, product reviews and the like, but I really had fun with this video and would like to try and squeeze these in as bonus content between reviews each month. I already have a list of bands from the 1970s that I think deserve more attention! Thank you for your time and support! Aaron |

Hi friends, I recently attempted using a streaming amp, the Eversolo Play, to handle playing my CD and vinyl collection and it was...interesting. NEW eBAY STORE: More on that below, but first I wanted to mention that I've been building out my eBay store again and offering CDs and more for sale. I plan on listing more vinyl soon, but I realize a lot of folks aren't comfortable shopping on Discogs because they can't see the item they are buying, so I'm now listing things on eBay as well, which...
Hi friend, Most of the audio related questions I receive involve buying a DAC. There are so many options now that people get "analysis paralysis" and can't make a confident decision. In today's YouTube video, I try to highlight common mistakes people make when shopping for a DAC with the hopes of helping make the process easier: My most common advice is to give yourself time with each piece of gear before upgrading. If you upgrade too quickly, you'll never know the baseline sound signature of...
Hi friends, In the early 1980s, Sony was a leader, along with Philips, in the design, implementation and release of CDs and CD players. Today, Sony no longer makes CD players. In my new YouTube video, I spend time marveling at Sony's engineering on a player they released in 1986, while also trying to understand why they stopped making players today: I enjoyed making this video and hope you do too. Have a great week! Aaron
