TUNING SESSIONS

AN IMMERSIVE LISTENING JOURNEY

 

 

In our atelier in Zwolle, we invite small groups into an intimate deep-listening session with headphones and blindfolds.

The journey combines original music, voice, binaural beats and psychoacoustic sound design to create conditions for deep rest, altered attention and a sense of wonder.

The session lasts approximately 55 minutes. The full evening takes around 2 hours, including arrival, time to land afterwards and a personal talk about the work.

WHY WE DO THIS

 

Bloom & Huda share a fascination with immersive music, art and the way sound and art can shift attention, state and perception.

For Huda, this work is rooted in growing up in a chaotic environment, where her nervous system learned to live in fight-or-flight. Her background in psychology and her interest in consciousness, trauma and regulation continue to inform the work she creates today.

For Peter, it comes from years of working with sound as a producer and artist — and from a period of acute burnout — which led him to explore how music, frequencies and sound design could help restore focus and creative clarity.

Together, these personal histories naturally grew into Tuning Sessions: intimate listening journeys that take people out of everyday noise and create space for rest, imagination and wonder.

 

WHAT WE USE

      • Binaural beats, spatial audio and psychoacoustic sound design
        – layered into an original musical composition that draws the listener deeper into the experience.

      • Deep-rest principles
        – inspired by techniques around breathing, relaxation and attention, including NSDR: non-sleep deep rest.

      • Cinematic musical storytelling
         – an immersive journey of music, voice and soundscapes.
