New releases only and say why you like your choices. No Youtube/Soundcloud/etc links. Be thoughtful. Much of this year's listening has taken place in a state of sleep deprivation and/or near exhaustion, hence most of the choices seem to travel between the conscious and unconscious mind...

Not sure whether to put this here or in technology. Anyway... Just come across this website: enter/create a 'room', add tracks and everyone in that room then hears the current song. Dissensus room: http://listeningroom.fettig.net/room/dissensus/

Quite an interesting piece on digital music here: http://www.nme.com/blog/index.php?blog=10&title=10_digital_music_predictions_for_2011&more=1&c=1&tb=1&pb=1&recache Not sure I agree with the point about Spotify (who lost £17 million?) or with piracy (it's already flourishing, but has moved...

So, I d/l their Fact mix and would now like to hear more. What would people recommend as a first purchase?

(Top o the) Morning, We plan to visit the Emerald Isle over half term- what would you lot say the the must see bits / bits to avoid (yeah, I know that's a stupid question)?

So, we bought a new car at the weekend and what’s the first thing one should do on making such a purchase? Why, take the stereo for a test drive of course :) So here is a quick compilation of the tracks I used to "check the performance" (is that what people like Clarkson say?). All reggae...

We are planning a weekend in Bristol in mid-march Hints, tips, recommendations, links etc for the usual gubbins much appreciated

Went to see The Unthanks last night with some trepidation- Whilst their 'The Bairns' LP got a fair bit of play round here (my better half being from the same part of the world), I always felt they were a little bit gimmicky with an overuse of 'bairn' and 'hinnie' etc. I had avoided hearing...

I just received this email: "Hello, i am ****** ******, a former student of yours. I am currently studying media at ******* ******* and was wondering whether you would be able to do me an interview for a radio project on how social networking is killing society? I think you would be able to...

Ok, as briefly touched upon on the early digi reggae thread, I've found that during this year, music seems to be less intrinsic to my every day life- i still like hearing good stuff, but increasingly rarely go out of my way to listen to it, let alone chase stuff down and own the physical object...

well?

We've had a few gaming related threads in the past: http://www.dissensus.com/search.php?searchid=164679 But not much. That is bad. I'm still loving my PS3. Currently hammering Afrika (AKA Hakuna Matata), which is great. A wicked change from running around shooting shit*: (edit: Jesus...

I know this is a bit of a silly question given the size of the place, but we will be visiting Canada in july/august. Our base will be London We will have access to a car for 10 days or so We have been to Toronto in the past. What would you recommend we do? Algonquin park has been highly...

Showing his true colours: http://www.guardian.co.uk/education/2009/may/11/education-policy-class-bias I bet he thinks that god made black kids stupid too. All the better for enslaving them. The shadow of Charles Murray returns to dissensus...

http://nightjack.wordpress.com/ Don't know quite what to say really, given my (somewhat) irrational dislike of our boys in blue, but compared to the majority of police blogs I've read, he knows his stuff and is informed. Still a copper though ;)

OMFG: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/entertainment/8014126.stm "Jade was just an ordinary girl..." It'll be just like Cats then "Her dream was as a little girl was to be in a musical, so so obviously when she passed away it felt fitting to do something like this" She also got pissed and...

Did anyone see his appearance on newsnight review on friday? What a horrible, deluded man- problems with politics are not politicians fault, but rather the publics' and even more depressing, his contention (when discussing the Paraquay youth orchestra), that working class people have no...

Was going to mention them in the 'what do you return' to thread, but with the re-ignition of the Smiths thread, I thought a specific one might be worth a punt... 1988, Oxford. The Smiths were THE band for the literate set, of which I was certainly not a part. I didn't do English A level for a...
