And was also fun to get stuck into the story and history of bassline and how it's gone from a genre that police once outlawed to a celebratory and family-friendly part of Bradford City of Culture.

âItâs a northern sound, it gives you hope that it can happen to youâ: how bassline bounced back
Once maligned as a scene marred by violence, bassline is booming once again thanks to pioneers such as Big Ang, Jamie Duggan and a T2 track that changed everything

Cannot find a better hit of pure cringe than British comedy DVDs from about fifteen years ago. This has got a really rough start where ten minutes in Whitehall reverts to a Russell Howard rip-off somehow more agonising than the real thing

Anyone who does their Christmas shopping a month in advance is really missing out on the sense of gleeful hysteria you get in the town shopping centre around now. Today I discovered theyâre selling Brat for ÂŁ42 in Waterstones. It feels perverse to see something so explicitly digital in this context
