Alex Wilson

Alex Wilson

Music obsessive alternative electronic producer. Mental health, card games, fitness, data and fantasy nerd.

Proud woke bloke and enjoyer of darkness (Justin Hawkins is cool and all but more generally horror, tense soundscapes, art etc.).

Dan Shipley

Dan Shipley

Loves to disassemble music to the atomic level, and pick out the parts he enjoys (or hates) the most. Passionate about a good groove. Just as likely to be found nerding out to complex rhythms, screaming along to pop punk, or contemplating clever lyrics and gentle acoustic melodies while sipping a whisky with a dog snoozing in his lap.

When not thinking about music, his head is probably in the clouds -- either pondering physics, hiking up a mountain, or wondering where his next batch of coffee beans is coming from.

Joe Manktelow

Joe Manktelow

NYC based lover of all things heavy. Find me at live shows across the city, trying to expand my horizons to pop, funk and bluegrass too.

TTRPG enthusiast, weak badminton player, would always rather be hiking or travelling.

Jonathan Tullett

Jonathan Tullett

Hi! I'm Jonathan and there's little which excites me as much as an inimitable vocal performance or a set of cleverly written lyrics.

I love pop for its majesty, inherent theatricality and emphasis on theme. I love R&B for its vocal arrangements and use of sampling to tell multi-layered (can you say intermusical like intertextual?) stories.

I also love reading, swimming and all things horror, though I doubt any of those will come up as much.
