About Listenings

Good Music, headphones, and a 40 minute oasis of time can be a damn fine experience. How often does that really happen though? ThE GRRrrRiiind is a real thing…. Wouldn’t it be nice to claim back some time and space to give new music a place? There are too many good albums out there to be left undiscovered.

Over a morning burrito and black coffee, we tried to come up with ways to make exploring good music part of our week. We thought of this:

What if we give you an incentive for fully immersing yourself in an album by sending you a bi-weekly newsletter with a chosen album, carefully selected and accompanied by a motivation on why this album deserves some focussed listening. To stay motivated, we hope to do this with a bunch of people, united under the bi-weekly newsletter. How it works specifically:

  • Subscribe if you haven’t already
  • Every other week, you’ll receive the album via email
  • Block time in your agenda
  • Listen to the album (doing little else)
  • Reply to the email with anything you want to share about the album (optional)
  • For the next mailing, we might select a few comments that will appear as an afterthought to the previous album.
  • Repeat 🔁
