What if each time you listened to your favorite song, it felt like you were hearing it for the first? That it won’t take 100 plays to hear that beautiful reverb slightly panned off-center. Or the subtle laughter of the artist after recording the main vocal that is left in the song. Groove brings back the joy of listening to music by letting you hear it the way it was intended. Once you listen through Groove, music just won’t be the same without it.
