WEI KOH
FOUNDER
REVOLUTION WATCH
“Music plays an incredibly important role in my life. I listen to it when I’m meditating and chilling out, or if I’m going to be exercising, I have to have music in my earphones. I listen to music as a form of release, as a form of escape, and as a form of inspiration. I listen to everyone from Grateful Dead to Misfits and, of course, The Rolling Stones.”
