The Lowdown
Selective Hearing began as a short series of articles in 2006. The music covered then was primarily North American/European pop, Hip-Hop, and R&B music. Later that year, the content expanded to cover Japanese and Korean pop and various electronic music genres.
Our current scope of coverage includes music, video games, movies and whatever else we can think of to fill the space on the blank pages in front of us.
We don’t pull any punches and are highly opinionated regarding the content we cover. We aim to inform you in a direct yet lighthearted and somewhat snarky manner with regularly updated commentaries, reviews, and podcasts.
