Presented by Ic3y Mag · Hosted by Curves at Foil Gallery July 11, 2026 Sessions at 7:00 PM / 8:20 PM / 9:40 PM (44 mins) Limited spots · 6560 Waverly St., Montreal A space to disconnect, sit still, and truly listen. Listening Room is a monthly series presented by Ic3y Mag, held inside Foil Gallery’s immersive listening space. Each session invites guests to experience a full album from beginning to end, together, without distraction. For this special edition, Curves presents Donuts by J Dilla. Released on J Dilla’s 32nd birthday just days before his passing in 2006, Donuts stands as one of the most celebrated and influential albums in modern music. Built from a vast collage of soul, funk, jazz, and Motown samples, the record unfolds through 31 short, interconnected pieces that blur the line between beat tape, memoir, and musical experimentation. What initially feels spontaneous gradually reveals itself as a deeply personal work, filled with joy, nostalgia, humor, and reflection. Nearly two decades later, Donuts continues to inspire producers, musicians, and listeners around the world, remaining a landmark achievement in sample-based music. + a short talk with Curves' founder Sean Brown. Presented in high-resolution, uncompressed audio through our custom Mycoaudio MTM system, this session offers a rare opportunity to experience the album with its full richness, detail, and dynamic range intact.
