Wilson Wilson commented on the post, So which is the best music monthly. 3 weeks, 2 days ago
Vox was the fist monthly for me. My sister bought me a copy while I was in hospital, with Harriet Wheeler from the Sundays on the cover (the internet tells me it was January 1991 so I was 13) as well as the Happy […]

The Guardian has this covered:
Apparently we should all be buying potted Christmas trees that we can grow outside for the rest of the year!

Wilson Wilson commented on the post, The 45 Minute Album Limit 1 month ago
When I copied Portishead’s Dummy from my sister’s original cassette I cut out It’s A Fire to get it down to 45 minutes. I played that tape to death. By the time I finally replaced it with a CD at least a decade […]

There are certain songs that I still expect to cut out before the end, because they breached the 45 minute limit!

I’ve had a similar experience with Ursula Le Guin recently. Stuff I’d been aware of years but for whatever reason I only just got round to reading, and it’s brilliant.

When Ride first reformed a couple of years ago, Mark Gardener was never seen without a hat. Could it be that the man who had once possessed the finest fringe in all of shoegaze – and whose look I desperately […]

I saw Duke Special do an early morning set in Glasgow about ten years ago. He played a regular gig on the Saturday night and sold tickets afterwards for the Sunday morning – he was raising money for some friends […]

Me too. I was 13 when Today Forever came out and I was obsessed. But I was so disappointed when I heard Birdman. Overnight I went from someone who bought everything they released on every format to not getting it […]

Looking forward to this one. It was this Resident Advisor video that grabbed me – they look like a great live act, but they’re not coming anywhere near me either!

I played drums in a band with two drummers for a bit. One of us generally played a more basic beat on the hi-hat/bass/snare while the other played something more rhythmic on the toms. We generally knew where the […]
