Welcome to the premiere episode of My Weekly Mixtape’sAlbum Dive—a deep dive into the stories behind the songs that have shaped, or soon will shape, our collective mixtapes and playlists.

In this debut installment, I’m joined by modern soul artist Wolfgang Valbrun to explore his powerful debut album Flawed By Design, released via Jalapeno Records. Blending elements of soul, rock, and blues, Wolfgang opens up about the album’s creation, offering introspective reflections and raw, unapologetic lyrics, all brought to life by the exceptional musicianship of his band.

We also discuss the ongoing importance of physical media in a streaming-dominated world, and share thoughts on the current landscape of soul music and where it’s headed. If you’re a fan of modern soul with substance and grit, this episode is not to be missed.
