Currently, my big love is for minimal tracks. Loving the output from labels such as Kaliber, Trapez and artists like Wighnomy Brothers, Robag Wruhme, Minilogue and Mathew Jonson. But of course I'm still loving the full range of alternative sounds be it Fila Brazillia, Boards Of Canada, Prefuse 73, AFX ... whatever. As long as it sounds like it'll be interesting, I'm game.
I'm a little less on the books of recent. But have just embarked on the realm of PSP/PS3 fundom, so you can catch me online with a bit of Warhawk fun at the moment.
Also loving a good TV series, frequently devour Buffy/Angel, Heroes, Lost, 24, Michael Palin travels, Bear Grylls, Survivorman, Austin Stevens and am munching through American Gothic and Supernatural at present.

Initially thought to be vapourware, Square Enix's follow up to one of the all time most important pieces of gaming history finally graces the PSP. The big question is, does the game manage to deliver? For those who do not know, the basis of the game is the story of Zack, an operative of military organisation SOLDIER, and deals with the events leading up to the beginning of Final Fantasy 7.

More action based than your usual RPG, you'll soon become adept at dashing around… Read more

After the rather wonderful trio of being impressed by PSP Fifa, a delightful £25 price tag and reports of this years PES being a mild tragedy, I decided to fully complete my PES-Fifa switch by opting to get the full on PS3 version. Truth be told, I'm finding it a joy. I quickly jumped into a Liverpool derby and found the translation from handheld to console nice and easy. The presentation (as to be expected) is fantastic from EA. Wonderful licencing and fluid animations. Even with the passing assistance on (which can be disabled to give you true control over pass direction), I was able to bang together some really satisfying fluid moves. The commentry highlighting my play and… Read more

Jake Fairley has had quite an output with long players this year, but it seems that the best has been saved for the label with which he's had his most recognisable track to date, James Holden's Border Community. Its now three LPs into Border Community's life and they keep getting better. Gazebo doesn't feature on this album but everything that is present is absolute electronic bliss. Little shades of Boc-esque synths without falling into Nathan Fake's trap of homage-athon. Trademark Border Community beats and sounds with electronics panning around your head and percussion falling in and out of time yet not totally alienating the listener with patterns that upset your internal… Read more
