Forget about counting sheep, use a Dreem sleep-enhancing headband instead


When it comes to sleep, the usual rule of thumb is that everyone needs 7-8 hours of sleep each night. But what if half or more of those hours are spent tossing and turning or staring at the ceiling wishing you were asleep. That’s where neurotech startup Rythm hopes to help with their Dreem sleep-enhancing wearable headband.

Dreem is a flexible fabric band work on the head that uses dry polymer EEG electrodes that measure brain activity. It then uses sound through bone-conduction technology to stimulate the brain to fall asleep faster and lengthen deep sleep cycles to improve the duration and quality of your sleep so that you wake up refreshed and well-rested.

The Dreem headband also uses a mobile app that keeps track of your sleep data to help you identify possible abnormal sleep patterns and then offer ways to increase your sleep quality.

Dreem is priced at $499/499€ and is now available for preorders at dreem.com. Those who order in the first 30 days will receive an early bird price of $399/€399 with shipping included until July 15. Dreem will ship this Fall.

Master & Dynamic gets all black and blue with Bamford Watch Department


Headphones that sound as good as they look are rare. Master & Dynamic headphones are an exception. The MH40 headphones are classically designed, impeccably made and sound really good. I’m now testing their wireless MW50 headphones and am liking what I’m hearing. A full review is coming soon. That said, Master & Dynamic has taken a page from the Apple book and is teaming up with fashionable tech brands by releasing limited versions of headphones. Case in point: M&D have partnered with George Bamford and the Bamford Watch Department (BWD), a leading luxury watch personalization company, resulting in the Master & Dynamic for BWD MW60 wireless headphone. This follows on the heels of other limited edition MW60s with Leica Camera and YouTube. The limited edition MW60s feature the same specs as the MW60, but with different color schemes.

According to Master & Dynamic, “Upon being introduced to George Bamford, he and Master & Dynamic’s Founder and CEO Jonathan Levine  bonded over a love of materials, craftsmanship and their shared passion for Engineering excellence and innovation.” They went on to say, “Combining Master & Dynamic’s blend of form and function, the Master & Dynamic for Bamford Watch Department MW60 wireless over-ear headphones … feature a combination of black Saffiano leather and Bamford aqua blue Saffiano leather on the inner headband and mesh inside the ear cup.”

The Master & Dynamic for Bamford Watch Department MW60 wireless headphones (and all other MW60s as well) sell for $549 US. They are available from Master & DynamicBamford Watch Department, and you can find some versions on Amazon.
