  1. 5/5Amazing project, a wonder to listen to

    I first heard about Longplayer 15 years ago during a London visit. Evolving from the original listening posts, the ability to now walk and listen to the composition ‘live’ on my iPhone is a marvel. I often have the app running for hours at a time, streamed through a Bose speaker at home. I’ve gifted the app a number of times to friends and family, all have enjoyed it. A version of the app for AppleTV would be appreciated. Namaste.

  2. 3/5Love the concept and sounds - App has a problem

    I just recently learned about Longplayer and I think it’s a brilliant concept and a lovely thing to listen to. The app itself is pretty basic. It’s cool to see how the Longplayer loop was made and to see where it’s at in real time and I love that it plays in the background if you go to some other apps. My issue is that, if you switch to another app that requires sound, while it’s playing, the sound goes off (that part makes sense) unfortunately, after this happens the only way to get Longplayer to start playing sound again is to restart my phone. I wish there was a reload button or something like that. I would give it five stars, but I’ve had it the app less than 24 hours and I’ve had this problem three times already. Hoping someone will do an update before the thousand years is up.

  3. 5/5Expanding the Universe of Composition

    Longplayer is a musical composition not unlike the Voyager space probes - designed to travel beyond human lifetimes and possibly human cultural lifetimes. This app will let you listen in on this moments' segment of the composition as it unfolds, without the need to travel to the Longplayer installation site in London. It also displays a diagram which shows you where you are in the score, and includes notes and news about the project. I plan to run it on a number of devices, so it's good that it's designed for both iPad and iPhone!

  4. 5/5Everyone needs this.

    Listening to the Longplayer project reminds me that there are still brilliant, beautiful, amazing, things in this world.

  5. 4/5Grand yet simple

    Longplayer is both aesthetic and informative. The music is very simple, peaceful, and hypnotizing. It's pretty humbling to know you'll only hear less than a hundred thousandth of it in your lifetime. If I was a different consumer who was not familiar with longplayer, I would probably not be willing to pay the steep price tag.
