I built and ran this website between 2000 and 2001, combining passion for popular music and programming. It was listed by MTV's now defunct MusicNewswire as one of the then nascent web's top twenty sources, alongside Billboard and VH1. The most exciting part of it — for a 13/14-year-old excited by new music — was receiving scores of pre-release CDs from record companies. The entire project was written entirely from scratch (frameworks and libraries were not the norm back then!) in PHP linking to a MySQL database, with HTML as well as a little CSS and JavaScript for the frontend; the code is available here.

Terris - Learning To Let Go
16 March 2001 | 0:00:00 GMT/UTC

Learning To let Go is the debut album from Terris - Gavin Goodwin, Alun Bound, Owen Matthews and Neil Dugmore. Twelve tracks produced by Gil Norton and recorded in Wales where the band originated.

The album begins with White Gold Way, an instrumental for the first two minutes with a 'surprising' guitar and vocal coming in later. The second track is Fabricated Lunacy which was released as a single earlier this month - this is one of the best tracks on the long player, Gavin's soulful vocals add to the strong guitar.

Next is Beneath The Belt a funky guitar track. Track five, Shapeshifter begins spookily with the guitar coming in followed by a vocal - excellent. The album ends with Deliverance.

A brilliant album, the highlight tracks being White Gold Way, Fabricated Lunacy, Shapeshifter and Vegetable Days.
