Best Music 🎵 of 2025!

[Nee Lewman]

I'll say this, listening to this isolated in a dark, quiet space (just past midnight) amplifies the music's atmosphere tenfold. It is an invitation to the void that I feel in relation to the years to come, with suffocating darkness, hopelessness, creeping tension, and whether hope can exist in a world so fraught with despair and desecration. Hayden is accurately capturing my headspace in these first weeks of 2025.

It's happening to everybody.

Yeah, the listening room is pretty dark and it was isolated. Closer to nine. Headphones.

I guess it does capture that fairly well. Maybe that’s the issue that I want to get away from all that?

Meh to headphones. I always much prefer music through loudspeakers.

I would likely agree if I actually had a proper listening room and the opportunity to use it (having kids makes it tough to enjoy a loudspeaker listen appropriately). Headphones are easily accessible and can offer a sense of isolation in and of themselves, methinks.

Oh yeah they definitely offer a sense of isolation but I’m perfectly good at isolating myself inside myself without that lol!

I would too but 3 year old is asleep by then.

I’ll also say this, headphones are the true test of your pressing.
