Manchester, so much to answer for. Most of it pretty good to be fair. Tonight may have been an Ian Brown gig in name but with a expanded supporting bill and 'homecoming' tag, it was set up as a celebration of the city's musical heritage. All of which means that the local, partisan crowd are here for that unique mix of indie and dance, with an awful lot of bravado thrown in. The Whip are obviously keenly aware of this history and show no desire to divert from its path. Mixing - yes - indie and dance they're [...]

There are many reasons why Star Wars is the coolest movie saga ever. My reasons may be different than yours, but suffice it to say, there are certain things that I think we can all agree on. The number one reason HAS to be Princess Leia in the slave outfit. Now, I realize that there are women out there that are probably scoffing at me right now, saying things like, "Horny Asian dude," but let's face it - she looked incredible and in all my life I never wanted to be a big slug-like creater as much [...]

In case you haven't noticed, the World Cup is upon us and every brand worth its salt is trying to jump on the band wagon. Adidas, however, have lined up some famous musical names for their latest effort - as well as the odd footballer (yes, of course it includes David Beckham). Recreating the bar room scene from the first Star Wars movie, it seems to us like a lot of money in pursuit of a half decent idea but make up your own mind... Related Snoop Dogg [...]

Even if they cannot be deemed "obscure", many figures are worth exposing regardless of their original prestige. The work they are producing is just that good. Like [...]
