About

Hello everyone,

Hello there! My name is Jake Beach. I'm a full-time Music Connoisseur and a lifelong devotee of sound. Diagnosed with Asperger's Syndrome as a kid, I found my sanctuary in melodies and rhythms when the social world felt like a puzzle I couldn't solve. It all started with my parents' vinyl collection—spinning Beethoven one day, The Beatles the next—and grew into an obsession that has defined me ever since.

You might catch me at a record shop or a dimly lit gig, rocking a faded band tee and my trusty headphones around my neck. While social situations can still throw me off, Music? That's my language, my method of connection. Every note's a conversation, every album a world I get to explore. I'm here to share that journey—unfiltered, unapologetic, and always chasing the next sound that ignites my passion.

Why can you count on my blog and me as your go-to companion in the world of Music!"

Navigating the world of Music can be daunting, especially when seeking trustworthy recommendations. Like any dedicated fan, I share the same passion, perpetually searching for remarkable albums and insights that broaden my understanding of our ever-evolving musical landscape.

With the rise of blogging, anybody can now write about Music, which has left music criticism in a state of oversaturated noise without a dedicated passion and respect for Music and its artistry.

This realization led me to create The Deep Dive, a blog committed to transparency and authenticity in Music. It represents my serious dedication to being a reliable resource in this field.

Throughout this journey, I aim to share insights and findings that you won't find in mainstream Music dialogue. I will stay committed to being a dependable guide for music newbies, enthusiasts, and seasoned connoisseurs. You can trust that I have conducted my research, uncovering genuine artistry amidst the clutter and noise, and am dedicated to the deep appreciation of Music.

I invite your active involvement in this endeavour. Together, we can cultivate a vibrant community committed to exploring and expanding our collective musical consciousness.

What will be covered?

I will provide comprehensive coverage of Music through a blend of long-form essays, reviews, commentary, links, observations, and more, framed by historical context and contemporary relevance.

I promise to deliver regular access to valuable insights from the music world, offering something more substantive than the typical rehash found elsewhere.
