Stick Talk: A Listening Party & Celebration of Future's DS2

​The listening party is a staple in music, especially when it comes to revisiting past work. While it’s fun to sing along to music you love with a large group of people, we often leave traditional listening parties wishing we had gained more, whether a deeper understanding of the project, or a new perspective on it.

​​The Event

​Stick Talk is an interactive listening party and celebration for the tenth anniversary of Future’s seminal album, DS2. Together, we'll explore a new take on the format: As we listen to the album together, I’ll be inviting friends, music journalists and audience members to come on stage and share their thoughts / stories / memories associated with the songs. If you love Future and DS2, come through and chat about it with other people. Never heard it? Come find out why people love it—and our toxic king Future—so much. The hope is by the end of the night, you will not only have revisited a classic album, but you'll walk away with a new perspective.

​​Join us at telos.haus on Sunday, August 10th for an interactive listening session & discussion around Future's album DS2. Unfortunately, we will not be serving lean, but there will be fun bites and drinks. The event is free to attend. All guests who RSVP will be automatically added to the Edited For Brevity Substack community.
