Listening Sessions are small, intimate gatherings dedicated to hearing albums in full. We slow down, listen with presence, and allow the music to unfold as a shared experience.

Beach House - Bloom (2012)

Another wonderful listening session in this series. Bloom diffused beautifully through the room. The soup warmed us up, as we were sinking into layered synths and tremolo guitars that seemed to vibrate through the skin, together with the intimate lyrics.

Personally, Wishes and On the Sea lingered with me long after the album, and it was lovely to see how many of you connected with Other People (pun intended). A moving album, and an even more moving evening. Thank you for being part of it.

Cocteau Twins - Heaven or Las Vegas (1990)

Thanks to everyone who joined Heaven or Las Vegas listening session. I really enjoy how these evenings are evolving. It feels like we are building a shared space that people can keep returning to.

It was beautiful to watch the shift from trying to decipher the lyrics to simply letting Elizabeth Fraser’s voice wash over the room as pure sound. What I loved most was that everyone seemed to walk away with a different favorite track, a good sign of how balanced and personal this album is.

For me personally, Fifty-Fifty Clown was the song that first made me notice Cocteau Twins years ago. More recently I found myself falling more for Road, River and Rail. And for those who want to dive deeper, Treasure (1984) remains another very special Cocteau Twins album worth spending time with.

Massive Attack - Mezzanine (1997)

Thanks to all who managed to join on Monday to listen to Mezzanine by Massive Attack. I’m still carrying the atmosphere of the night with me. It meant a lot to see how much openness, curiosity, and presence everyone brought with them.

One small personal note: Group Four remains my favorite track on Mezzanine. I love its tribal undercurrent and the way it slowly builds tension and release. If you feel like revisiting the album, I highly recommend giving that track (or the whole album) another listen with headphones to explore its depths.

Jeff Buckley - Grace (1994)

Last night felt exactly like what I had hoped for: a cozy group, a shared soup, deep listening, and reflections that went far beyond the album itself. Thank you to everyone who came and helped create such a calm and delightful atmosphere.

Grace revealed itself once again as an incredibly rich and vulnerable album. If you feel like returning to it on your own time, I personally recommend revisiting the song Dream Brother. It stayed with me after the evening, both musically and emotionally.
