 Music App Stuff Newsletter

Albums is developed by a single, music-obsessed developer, Adam Linder. That’s me. This is in first person now. I chronicle the development of this app in a newsletter called Music App Stuff, where you can get the first details on new features, a behind-the-scenes look into what goes into new versions, and half-coherent musings on the intersection of technology and music-listening.
