no manifesto - no idea.

let's just see what happens.

update : nov'02

since starting this 2.5 years ago, the emphasis seems to have been moved slightly. as well as providing a memory of a lost classic i have been privileged to get to know some very exciting new artists on non-major labels. recently there has been a resurgence in excellent new lo-fi/indie/underground music, a lot of which mixes all types of genres into a glorious amalgamation of tunes and textures using real instruments and computerised sounds, many of these new acts deserve your attention

original mission

over the years i have scoured the second hand racks and built up a substantial collection of odds and sods. amongst the collection is a variety of styles the likes of which amazes even me. i refuse to pay the extortionate prices that the high street insist on charging and whole-heartedly recommend the little hidden away back street shops. personally i would prefer to spend £15 on 6-7 cd's of all sorts of stuff as opposed to the latest major-label hype. amongst the collection i have recently come to realise that many of the releases are absolute classic albums which don’t deserve to get forgotten.

over the coming months i will post reviews of cd's that i deem to be such a classic and i know for a fact that the cd is available for less than a tenner. the reviews will be plain, simple and to the point. no hype just telling you whether its worth picking up or not.

hope this helps some music lovers out there
