The Final Active Listener Sampler As we limp towards our retirement here at the Active Listener we have one final sampler for you (for now - who knows what the future holds?) - this one has a $1 download charge (to try and cover our bandcamp costs), but as always youre very welcome to stream for free. Ive loved putting these together over the years, and its gratifying to know that these are enjoyed by so many. Time is pressing so Ill just say thanks to Paul Thomas for the splendid sleeve art and all of the featured artists (and all involved with previous samplers). Weve still got a few reviews up our sleeves but after that things will go quiet for a wee while. In the meantime live well, be kind and curious, and have a fabulous Christmas and New Year from the Active Listener xx The Final Active Listener Sampler by The Active Listener download file now

The Active Listener Sampler 42 This sampler has been a little longer coming than most as Ive had all sorts of other things going on outside of the Active Listener keeping me busy, but the wait has been well worth it. This time we have a really fascinating assortment of tracks from recently reviewed material, upcoming releases and a few wildcards by complete unknowns which have completely blown me away (check out that Todd Sinclair track!). Joseph Sampson has provided us with the lovely sleeve art for this release - his first for us, but hopefully not his last!
