The Golden Age of the Video Game Arcade: 1987
Welcome back to 1987, with this year’s long list of classic arcade games being impossible to detail in a single article. Here are some of my favourites. 1987 was a turning point for me and my fascination with the video game arcade. It had been a place of comfort for a good chunk of my…

BOSS Katana 50 Guitar Amplifier Review
The BOSS Katana 50 Guitar Amplifier IS the best guitar-related purchase I’ve ever made. Why? Let me explain. Is the BOSS Katana 50 loud enough to gig with? The question that everyone’s asking.

Prague : The Musical City
My latest travel blog is all about Prague, the beautiful capital city of the Czech Republic, a place steeped in history and culture, where music and art in all its forms thrive after years of apparent oppression.

A Moon Shaped Pool by Radiohead: The Art of Ambience
Album review of A Moon Shaped Pool by Radiohead I’ve never been a huge fan of Radiohead. Hearing “Creep” and “HIgh and Dry” on the radio once in a while has pretty much summed up my listening experience with them thus far. But when “Guitar World”, a publication that I respect very much declared “A…
