Went a bit crazy during the week and ordered a big bunch of Sound Sniffer merch online for myself. The reasoning behind this bulky and impulsive purchase was pretty logical (for my standards) actually. The idea came to me following a little shopping trip in Watford. I needed summer t-shirts; I set off for Primark,... Continue Reading →
Something a little bit more BBC radio 1 ready here this afternoon from much anticipated Aussie artist Jack Gray. The nice thing here is that he writes and produces everything himself, much respect - it's no wonder Warner Music Group have snapped him up.

No better way to kick start this site again after a brief vacation than to share an absolute gem from Londoner Nick Tyson AKA 'XOA'.
