While spending a day in Lausanne, I was heading to the Collection de l'Art Brut museum when I stumbled upon the Obsession Records Shop. Nestled in the basement of a bookshop (Librairie Basta!), this wasn't your typical underground space. The shop exuded an incredible ambiance, with sunlight streaming through a glass ceiling, illuminating the wooden floor below. Welcoming chairs, a thriving interior plant, and the gentle hum of music created an inviting atmosphere, complemented by the friendly owner's presence.

The small but carefully curated music selection spilled out of the crates, beckoning visitors to explore. A diverse array of genres filled the shelves: Soul-Jazz records compilations, classic reissues, experimental tracks, a touch of hip-hop, and an extensive rock collection. As I browsed, the background music caught my ear – "Service Merchandise" by Previous Industries, a perfect example of the moody hip-hop I adore. It was an instant purchase decision.

Although my French wallet felt the pinch of Swiss prices, I couldn't resist. After all, records bought while traveling carry their own stories, making them all the more precious.

Russel Barkley (a retired ADHD specialist) comments a video of Trevor Noah talking about ADHD and depression. It's always inspiring to witness celebrities sharing their mental health struggles. I learned that Simone Biles and Noah Lyles are diagnosed with ADHD.
