Listener 1787’s letters
Four dimensions, read from what Listener 1787 actually plays.
vs Intimate
The body votes before the mind.
You reach for music that moves the body first - rhythm, pressure, momentum. The feeling arrives through motion.
vs Eclectic
One clear thread beats a dozen.
Your taste holds together as 4 close sides of one sound. You know exactly what you like, and you go deep rather than wide.
vs Rooted
You keep moving toward the next sound.
Your taste is mid-shift. One side is taking over while another fades - you are actively becoming someone new in sound.
vs Niche
You like the door wide open.
You meet music where most people are - the artists everyone knows, the songs that fill rooms. Shared taste, big rooms.
Listener 1787’s reading
As Brew wrote it to Listener 1787.
You lead with “The Glam Dissenter”: curated mess, loud feeling, forward motion. MGMT, The Strokes, David Bowie, Radiohead, and Interpol are its landmarks. Your taste stays close-knit, but the sound is already changing.
Your moody pop-and-rap spell leans on Björk and Gorillaz. Your sad-slick singer-songwriter lane finds its sting in Fiona Apple and Elliott Smith. Lately, the floating trip-hop daydreams are rising, with Aphex Twin and Air. You still reach for motion; now you’re learning how to drift.

Not Listener 1787’s favorite, not the most played. The one song all of Listener 1787’s people share.
“Floaty Aphex trip-hop daydream with Bowie-adjacent weird tenderness and drift.”
