The point of this site is to let people promote their music, brands, shops and events. We also want to hear from the people who have grown up with their subcultures and hear their experiences. Our first is Martyn Johnson who gives us a great insight into his experiences in the soul scene and who…

Leading up to the election on May 7th, the polls were predicting a good night for the SNP. There were many reasons why we remained skeptical. The media in general have never been friends to the notion of Scotland “having a voice”. At the poll, the SNP contingent were quiet but happy with the way…
