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.

New Order - Crystal
10 August 2001 | 12:20:00 GMT/UTC

New OrderNew Order formed twenty-one years ago in Manchester. Since then they have released six studio albums and thirty-four singles.

Now they're back with number thirty-five Crystal, taken from the forthcoming long-player Get Ready.

This is electronic music for rock fans. Featuring thrashing guitars, a fast dance-like beat, sound effects that add the electronic feel and Peter Hook's fantastic bass.

There's a lot going on in this record and it's all brilliant.
