The internet makes it very easy to listen to new music these days, and quite often… Read More »My Best Music of 2012 List

There have however been a couple of changes: You will notice the obvious stylistic differences between the old and the new site – this will be updated over the next two weeks The forums have been disabled for now.

Just a quick post to let you all know the forums have been updated this morning. All seems to have gone relatively smoothly, though there are a few issues, mainly to do with style (which I’ll fix up over the coming week) and permissions (which should be fixed now).
