About Collxn
Hi, I'm Ash! I made Collxn because I wanted to dive deeper into my own record collection.
Like a lot of vinyl heads, I'd built up shelves of records I loved — but I still found myself stuck in listening ruts. Some gems were getting lost, while others stayed on repeat out of habit. So I started wondering: what if my collection could surprise me? What if, each day, it gently nudged me toward something I already owned but hadn't heard in a while?
That’s the idea behind Collxn.
Whether your shelf holds 30 records or 3,000, Collxn surfaces one each day — your Daily Drop — with thoughtful prompts and context to help you rediscover your collection, one record at a time.
Collxn isn’t a marketplace or a spreadsheet. It’s a personal space for exploration, sparked by a little curiosity and the magic of chance.
Why I built this
Over the years, I’ve had the chance to dig through crates with collectors in New York, Tokyo, Paris, and beyond. I’ve seen how vinyl brings people together — for the sound, the mixing, the memories, the ritual, the hunt.
But I also noticed that most tools treat collections like datasets to be managed, not like the personal treasures they are.
Collxn is different: it’s about making something small and special for people like me (and maybe like you).
I believe:
- A great collection is more than an inventory list — it’s a lifelong relationship with music.
- Music discovery doesn’t have to mean new music — sometimes it means re-meeting an old favorite.
- Technology should make your collection feel more human, not less.
Collxn celebrates the artifact and the ritual.
Where things are now
Collxn is still in private beta. I’m working closely with early users — fellow record lovers who don’t mind chatting with me now and then — to shape what it becomes.
If that sounds like you, I’d love to have you.
