london headphones festival.
listen. dont listen.
19 july, 12pm-12am, state51, london e2
the cream of Londons underground electronic music scene and beyond is brought together for a day and night of headphone performances.
think of a festival in reverse. performances will only be heard via headphones in the venue, and broadcast to the world via the net. for once, its a perfect opportunity for some focused listening. bring your own headphones: plug in, switch on, tune out.
