About

Hi! I am Leo, the curator of these handpicked vinyls.

Before coming into advertising, you could spot me in front of my PC trying to break into the top 200 in League of Legends, making music in FL Studio or chasing the ball in the Junior Bundesliga for Holstein Kiel.

As I’ve grown, these hobbies have grown into their own too. I now speak as an e-sports expert at ad agencies who want to learn more about this ‘cool thing kids are into these days.’ I am hoping to release my first EP with original music soon. And my collarbone might have broken and healed (twice), but I am very much in the market to join a football club again.

I’d love to bring my learnings from all these experiences to you. And who knows, maybe the next vinyl in here might be ours.
