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.

Santos - Camels
11 January 2001 | 0:00:00 GMT/UTC

Camels is the new single from Santos, born in Rome in 1971, he was influenced by people like Jean Michel Jarre, Kraftwerk and Brian Eno. Camels is an instrumental track, it's definitely original. A sort of house/disco style.

It has received radio air-play as a 'bed' (the tunes DJ's talk over) as well as 'on it's own'. It's a brilliant track.


4/5
