But with the ever-increasing digitization of music, some of that physicality is disappearing. It’s essential that consumers understand why this matters, and artists have an amazing opportunity (and ...We Listen For You1 May 2012

Click v. ActA Change Is Gonna Come - Ben Sollee (mp3) With My Own Two Hands - Jack Johnson feat. Ben Harper (mp3) “Your mouth runs faster than your mind.” The relatives of mine who said this often aimed it at me in my adolescence. It was their way of trying, often in vain, to get me to think and process before allowing words to emerge from betwixt my impulsive lips. We now live in a culture that has all but given up trying to slow things down or mull things over. The immediacy of our world does not allow us to value contemplation ...Bottom of the Glass12 March 2012
