If you think 5:4 is an interesting, entertaining, useful or valuable resource, then please consider becoming a patron, from just $2 per month. With even a small monthly donation, I’ll be able to devote a lot more time and ambition to the blog, and ultimately explore an even greater range of music in much more depth.
