BOSE: Music for the soul

Advantages: Great sound quality, perfet at loud volumes, just in general FANTASTIC
Disadvantages: none so far

...Anything made by BOSE can be trusted. Its sound quality is always at its best, no matter what soundsystem you use from bose, and it's true... you get what you pay for. Jus plug it in and press "ON" and you're set up! IT'S THAT EASY! bose is a big brang name, and everyone expects the best from, and how right they are. The sounddocks simplistic design brings out the best of your mp3 player, making it the whole music experience that much better. For (at most) £300, you are getting exactly what you pay for AND more! The bose soundock has an inate wonder within itself, which brings you to appreciate the minor details embedded into whatever track you are listening to. Its reasonably light weight, comes with an easy to use remote and from there onwards, it really is just you and your music i can easily say that the best thing about...

Being Frank

Advantages: A good sound
Disadvantages: No Weslife's usual type of music

...Shane, Bryan, Kian, Nicky and Mark. They were signed by Simon Cowell and are currently managed by Louis Walsh. Since their formation the bands music has greatly evolved and moved from teen pop to contempary adult music. In 2004 Bryan left the band to work on solo projects but despite rumours the rest of the band carried on performing and are still performing today. Together the boys have released - albums, sold more than 40 million records worldwide and gained 14 number one singles in the UK with I Have a Dream/Seasons in the Sun staying at the number 1 spot for 4 weeks in 1999. Their albums are; Westlife, Coast to Coast, World of Our Own, Unbreakable, Turnaround, Allow us to be Frank, Face to Face, The Love Album, and Back Home. It is Allow us to be Frank that I will be reviewing today. Track list 1. Ain't that a Kick in the Head 2...

Bose SoundDock Digital Music System Review

Advantages: Superb Sound, Very Loud, Ideal for Ipods
Disadvantages: not go to travel with, Extremely Expensive

...Bose SoundDock Digital Music System I happened to get this as a gift and it turned out to be quiet interesting Summary: This dock is used mainly for ipod and allows you to connet mp3 players to it and listen to high quality music via speakers. It is idle for homes and small gatherings, although I would not run a party off these. Pros: This system has terrific sound and can go very load despite its relative small size. As with almost all Bose speakers the quality is amazing, so long as the source you are playing it from is high quality it will allow the speakers to each its potential. I have a surround sound Bose set up in one of my rooms but now prefer to use this product as it is very simple to operate. Just plug the mp3 player in and press play and your set. Can't get much simpler. It also runs off a wall...

Review of Bose SoundDock Digital Music System

Frank-Squeeze

Advantages: A musical lesson in the history of british guitar pop.Musically&lyrically cool&catchy.Retro appeal
Disadvantages: Not their best album, but definitely doesnt deserve to have flopped as much as it did.

..." and "Up the Junction". -Squeeze also houses the legendary piano skills of Jools Holland but he left the band in late 1980 to form the Millionaires. -Difford and Tilbrook ended their time with squeeze in 1982 but not their collaboration as a strong songwriting duo. They went on to write for Paul Young, Billy Bremner and Jools Holland. - In 1985 the band reunited to do a charity gig, which made Difford, Tilbrook and Holland to permanently re-form. Right now for the album; Frank, was released in 1989. It was an instant flop. During the supporting tour for Frank, their label A&M ditched Squeeze. Soon after Holland left the band to concentrate on his career in music and entertainment (for the BBC). So for those that dont know, Frank is lyrically and musically like the lighter Elvis Costello and the attractions stuff mixed with some...

Review of Frank - Squeeze

Frankly, It's Great

Advantages: Musically and lyrically entertaining
Disadvantages: The nature of the collection does provide a couple of patchy moments

...When Frank Turner left Million Dead, he expressed a desire to keep playing songs and to keep touring, but didn?t want to be part of a band any longer. Three years later ? hence the title ? after a couple of EPs and a couple of studio albums, we have this collection. ?The First Three Years? contains the tracks from both the EPs as well as collecting together material he recorded with other artists early in his solo career and a few other random tracks. The album begins with the title track from his second EP, ?The Real Damage?. It?s an interesting song that rather worryingly proves to be an accurate reflection of far too many nights in my own life recently and it?s such a vivid story of life that most people would find something in the lyrics that they can identify with. Musically, it?s a heavily folk influenced tune with a quite...

nokia 5800 express music, a great phone!

Advantages: so many great features and looks great!
Disadvantages: took me a while to work out where the sim card went! but thats probably just down to me, lol

...cool, it shows you where you are and your able to find local services on the maps, like garages and car parks. Really cool! I also like the way you are able to cut together to video clips and add a soundtrack and then you can upload it to the web! The video and pictures are really clear and colour perfect. You can load these to the computer or show them through your tv. The mp3 ringtones are crystal clear in sound, and the headphones you get with the phone are good too. Your also able to plug your phone into the computer and download music to your phone. The menu display is good and its easy to find what you want. It comes with three games, bounce touch, a guitar game and a car racing game, all good but takes a while to get the hang of the touch screen with the games. You get earphones, a extra stylus, a plecktrum (to use instead...

Review of Nokia 5800 XpressMusic

Wii music

Advantages: Learn about instruments
Disadvantages: Not interesting enough for me

...I love my Nintendo Wii and love playing new and different games on it. I recently played the Wii Music but unfortunately this was one game that I really did not like. Wii music was released in 2008 and allows players to simulate playing with real musical instruments. You use either the Wii remote or the nunchuk to play the instruments. THe disappointment for me was that the instruments were just not realistic enough. For example, I love Wii Sports because I think the tennis, bowling and actually all the games are really realistic and it feels like you are actually there playing the game. With the Wii Instruments it did not feel like you had a real instrument in your hands and also the Mii characters on the screen just did not react well to the movements. It was more of a chore trying to play the instruments and I gave up pretty soon...

Frank Bridge - Piano Music rediscovered

Advantages: Excellent selection and performance of piano works by Frank Bridge
Disadvantages: A few pieces are not very interesting

...Frank Bridge was an early twentieth century English composer. His works are not widely known, but are played increasingly, and more recordings are becoming available. Some of his later works, such as his piano sonata, were influenced by Scriabin. This CD is the second of three, and covers a wide range of styles, but mostly in his earlier style. Most of the pieces on this CD are fairly easy to listen to, and can be enjoyed by the majority of classical music lovers. The opening piece, Etude Rhapsodique, is an etude appropriately played by Jacobs, in the grand manner (of Liszt and other nineteenth century virtuosi), full of late nineteenth century panache, but with Bridge's own distinctive voice. The second piece, Berceuse, is played beautifully, a gentle piece as the name would suggest (a lullaby) but again with Bridge's own...

Frank Turner - Poetry of the Deed

Advantages: A new Frank Turner album
Disadvantages: Perhaps not as strong as previous ones

...Ladies and gentlemen?introducing a little known man who goes by the name of Frank Turner ? a singer songwriter hailing from London, with his third studio album; Poetry of the Deed. Anyone who?s a fan of good music, read on? His first two helpings of delicious of folk-cum-indie-acoustic rock music were anthemic and created a large buzz on the ?scene?. His debut; Sleep is for the Week, combined big sing-a-long choruses and lyrics of everyday life. His second outing; Love, Ire & Song did it all again but with more maturity, with heartfelt lyrics and complex song structures. Poetry of the Deed takes these two formulas and makes a great combination. The album?s opener; Live Fast Die Old, is somewhat different to much of his previous solo work and emphasises his close-knit band which he works along side now during his live shows...

Review of Poetry Of The Deed [Digipak] - Frank Turner

Nokia 5800 touch screen music phone

Advantages: Quick and easy to use
Disadvantages: Can get damaged easily

...The 5800 XpressMusic is a revolution for Nokia with it being the first touch screen phone produced by the manufacturer. With its slim lined shape it is an easy phone to hold and to use. The stylus being made of plastic makes the phone as light as possible and easy to hold and to use with the screen. The back of the phone can be removed without out fuss to get at the battery and the SIM card which is slotted into the side of the phone but only removable by removing the back and the battery. The Nokia 5800 takes a micro SD memory card that can go up to 16GB in size that also slots into the side of the phone that the SIM goes in. The general use of this phone is simple and to task with many shortcuts through menus including the 4 buttons on the front of the phone one of which opens a shortcut menu for media applications including music...
