A MEMBER WRITES … This week I’ll have a bigger grin than usual. I’d like to say a big Thank you first to Jonny7 and Audio Origarmi. I purchased another Tabriz in need of some TLC, the wiring was disconnected I had a look, but my own fat fingers said NO. Late night emails, then […]

Emma Gritt writes: Toolroom Records celebrated a decade in the house music game this year. To mark the occasion, they embarked upon a 10-week tour, which included a special back to back Toolroom Records extravaganza at Ministry of Sound, the first time the original London superclub had ever allowed one brand to set up shop […]

MSW writes: Mike, Peter, Davy and Mickey were musicians prior to the formation of The Monkees. They didn’t play on first two albums (Mike was the only one who did and on his own compositions only) due to an arrangement Screen Gems did with Don Kirschner that put him in charge of all Monkees music.

For jitter to be audible it has to be unpredictably late or early. (If we know the data is always late or early by the same measure then it’s easy to compensate). The reference for our digital audio data is called a clock. With every clock cycle, the digital audio system looks to see if there is […]
Being with Wynton Marsalis is always an education. He’s happiest when he can enthuse about something, or learn something new from whoever he’s speaking to. Right now, sitting over lunch in a Japanese restaurant in New York, he’s off on the topic of jazz’s Anglo-Celtic roots. “Those folk songs and hymns the slaves […]
So, having to introduce austerity measures due to enforced salary cut and youth number 2 on its way, I think it’s about time I got round to selling my meagre vinyl collection. What I want to know is how does one go about assessing condition for listing on Discogs, t’bay, etc (even on here), especially […]

Jacopo della Quercia writes: The theory that Pink Floyd’s The Dark Side of the Moon was deliberately written to be played in synch with The Wizard of Oz (the so-called Dark Side of the Rainbow/Dark Side of Oz theory) is one of the most widespread and enduring in pop culture. It has appeared in movies, […]
Blue Chicago offers a revealing look at an important part of Chicago life. David Grazian spent lots of time in blues clubs all over the city, schmoozing with musicians, bartenders, club owners, and audiences, sometimes even taking the stage himself. What he uncovers is how people involved with the Chicago blues scene define the blues […]
Stephen Pritchard writes: This is one of those rewarding recordings that makes you totally reassess music from the mainstream repertoire. Robin Michael’s gut-strung cello is softly sonorous, a perfect match for Daniel Tong’s masterly pianism on an 1897 Blüthner – said to have been played and chosen by Brahms on a visit to the Leipzig […]
Known by an audience far wider than the average ‘classical music lover’ for his Bach discs, Glenn Gould assumed an iconic status during his life. Eccentric and opinionated, Gould abandoned concert-giving aged 31 to focus on studio recording Continues HERE

Ben Walsh writes ….. She was bullied at high school, dumped by her boyfriend before the prom and ditched again just before moving from Toronto, her hometown, to Nashville last year. It’s no small wonder, then, that Lindi Ortega favours heartbreak material, although the eloquent country singer doesn’t appreciate being pigeon-holed. MORE
