Paul Enamu – DJ
“I started carrying earplugs a few years back once I noticed that I suffered from a tiny bit of tinnitus. I use them on the tube, at gigs, in clubs, whenever I’m in loud and noisy surroundings. I used headphones for too many hours a day, finishing projects. Somehow I haven’t talked about this much in the past. It’s time to change that.”
Neal Hoffmann - Songwriter & Composer
“Going to a gig, club, venue, or Festival? Before entering the event you’ve been waiting for all week… Stop, think & Plug’em”
Rhythm n Motion - Recording Artist / Producer
“As a DJ, music producer & label owner, it is vital I’m able to hear certain frequencies within music. Damage to your ears can cause loss of frequencies that you are never able to regain. Wearing the correct hearing protection is vital as anyone at a music gig is susceptible to tinnitus without it.”
Matthew Canning - DJ & Music Producer Rhythm Control Records Ltd
“I’ve been dealing with tinnitus for over 10 years now & it’s been a struggle. I never leave my house without multiple earplugs & recently switched to in ear monitors for djing, a choice that has really helped me get some peace of mind & trust in the fact that I’m doing everything I can to prevent it from getting worse. Be smart, wear earplugs! Get used to them because when you are, you will never want to enter a club without them!”
Ferreck Dawn - DJ / Music Producer
“Protecting your hearing is essential! We only have one pair of ears, do the right thing, Plug’em!”

Enjoy music but protect yourself and Plug’em”
Chris Allan - Drummer | Musical Director | Songwriter
“Hearing is my vocation, so damaging my ears is unthinkable. I always wear earplugs when in loud environments, I still enjoy the gig or party, and actually can hear the music and talk to friends better.”
Jake Jackson - Recording Engineer - Mixer - Producer

Tallulah Goodtimes - Electro Swing Artist, DJ and Producer
