For the Record is a conversation series where we speak with all manner of music heads — DJs, music journos, indie label captains, record shop owners, listening bar kingpins, et al — about their stories + the music that makes them. Lauren is the Marketing Manager and a resident DJ at the Brooklyn club, Good Room.
