Headphone Commute is an independent online resource of candid words on electronic, experimental and instrumental music. The range of covered genres includes ambient, modern classical, shoegaze, downtempo, experimental, minimal, IDM, film music and everything in between. Headphone Commute is not associated with any artist, band, record label, promoter, distributor or retailer covered by the reviews. There is no hidden agenda behind these words. What you see is what you get. All that means is that we share our love for music because we want to, not because we have to. Created entirely by humans, with no artificial intelligence.
Who is behind Headphone Commute?
Remaining anonymous is important to the founder of Headphone Commute. This anonymity affords the mysterious HC the luxury of staying true to the writer’s opinion and acts as a safeguard to prevent the ego from getting in the way of the one thing that counts: music. Here’s everything you ever wanted to know in these Fifteen Questions with Headphone Commute.
Album Submission Policy
Unfortunately, at this time, Headphone Commute does not accept any unsolicited promotional material. We are deeply apologetic for this decision. There’s nothing worse than having your music pile up on our desks, which never gets a chance to be heard. Similarly, we don’t want to passively ignore you by never replying to your requests. For every beautiful album that we feature on the site, we get ten more sent by email, and there’s no way that we can ever catch up! The decision about accepting promos is not final and may change in the future, depending on our workload. Labels and artists with which we have had contact in the past may continue to reach out via the same methods. Otherwise, you can be sure that we’ll find you. We hope you understand where we’re coming from, and again, we’re very sorry for this decision.
