The Listening Room at 180 Studios

by The Vinyl Factory

Recorded inside Devon Turnbull’s custom hi-fi installation at 180 Studios, The Listening Room is a new podcast from The Vinyl Factory and 180 Studios about how records tell stories. Throughout Season One, DJs, musicians, writers, and record collectors gather around Turnbull’s system to play the records that have shaped them, tracing how sound moves through time, place, and community. From the basements of London to the film studios of Lahore, the series unfolds as an oral history of vinyl, exploring its social, cultural, and personal significance: how people use records to make meaning, find belonging, and imagine new ways of living. Each episode is taken from a live session at 180 Studios, recorded in the intimate warmth of Turnbull’s space built for deep listening. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
