For the past two months, every night has started in roughly the same way for me. I go on YouTube and see what music livestreams are kicking off, whether it be archived concert footage debuting on the internet for the first time, or an electronic artist goofing around in the studio.

Alternatively, I'll hop over to Twitter, scroll past the usual deluge of doomsayers and try to find any kind of online event to escape into, even if it's just for 15 minutes. There’s usually at least a half dozen options.

Trying to find some kind of real escape amid the COVID-19 pandemic is tough, though. Escaping to the outside world isn't possible for many people, and, inside the steady stream of coronavirus news can get overwhelming. It's like after an earthquake, except the "shaking now" tweets have been replaced with the day's numbers of newly infected.
