Evening everyone. Greg here, I'll keep this as short and sweet as I can. She and I have been making midnight chats for just over four years now. The series we've just finished has taken us into the nineties in terms of the amount of episodes we've done, and we love making it. If you're a regular listener, you'll have heard us plug Loud and Quiet. Loud and Quiet is the independent music magazine, website, live events thing that we do alongside making this and other podcasts. It's where the

idea for this podcast came from. And like so many other people in the creative industries, the coronavirus pandemic has hit business pretty hard day to day. Most of what we do is supported by advertising. In the music world, with venues shut tours, postponed, festivals, off releases, pushback. We saw all of our revenue you disappear almost instantly, and when this is done, we know that it's going to take a while for it to return, if it does at all. The Loud and Quiet started as a homemade

music scene in a spare bedroom fifteen years ago. It's lasted this long because of passion, a lot of hard work, and bit of luck. Along the way. For years, we've known that the advertising funded model that we've got is vulnerable and undependable, which is why we've been trying to build up our subscribers the past few years and that's been a really massive help. But the truth is we don't have enough yet to make up the shortfall, support

what we do and secure our future. So to get to the point today, we've announced a new subscriber bundle. It's available all over the world wherever you're listening to this.

It's fifty pounds for the whole year, and for that you'll get every new magazine that we've a brand new special edition fifteen years of Loud and Quiet zine special that we've been making in lockdown, downloadable digital editions of the magazine, super cool bookmark, a die cast logo pin, plus our subscriber playlist that we make, and entry into our monthly draw to win our album of the month on final If you go to Loud and Quiet dot com you can see it, and I think it looks

pretty cool. So if you've enjoyed listening to midnight chats, or want to support independent music journalism or discover some new music, please do consider becoming a subscriber funds not just the magazine but us making this podcast too, so please check it out. It's Loud and Quiet dot com, and thank you for listening.
