\m/ My Favourite Summer 2009 Music Festival Experience \m/

Advantages: Fantastic Experience, Great Music, Lovely People, Wonderfully Organised
Disadvantages: Maybe Pricey For Those Not Into Music As Much

...Myself, my other half and a lot of my friends have been frequenting the annual "Download" music festival for about 5 years now and this year was no different. In June we trotted off up the M1 for the long weekend. However, this year we also attended the new Sonisphere festival that is in England for the first time since its creation. This is the first ?rock? festival besides Download that I have attended. I must say, this has inspired me to branch out my festival wings more often as this is now most certainly my favourite summer music festival. A Little History -------------------- Sonisphere has been around for a number of years since it was founded by Stuart Galbraith. Stuart started "Kilimanjaro Live" after working on the Download festival and wanting to branch out on his own. The 2 day festival currently tours throughout...

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...

Review of Bose SoundDock Digital Music System

●Music Of The Summer●

Advantages: Great Tracks
Disadvantages: None

...introduced Rihanna to his producing partner, Carl Sturken, which together, made about 10 songs for Rihanna. Evan and Carl got Rihanna an audition with Shawn Carter (Jay-Z), who loved her style, and immediately signed her to Def Jam Recordings, where Jay-Z is the President and CEO of the company. Jay-Z took the songs which Evan, Carl and Rihanna had recorded, and put them together for her debut album, Music Of The Sun. The album contains 13 tracks. ●PON DE REPLAY● I think nearly all of you have heard this brilliant debut single, which has peaked at number 2 in Hip-Hop Billboard charts for 15 weeks. It is one of, if not the only summery song of this summer. Of course, Reggae is a very refreshing and summery style of music, and this is one of the best Reggae/Hip-Hop tracks I've heard in a while, with the exception of Belly...

Review of Music of the Sun - Rihanna

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 What was your favourite Summer 2009 music festival experience?

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...

Nokia 5800 Express Music

Advantages: User friendly, excellent quality MP3 player
Disadvantages: camera is not brillian, particularly video.

...Nokia 5800 Express Music * The phone is a good size and shape to comfortably fit into your jeans pocket. The screen is bright and clear, rather like an I phone screen in the way it looks and the way it works. * The music quality as you would expect is exceptional, the sofware that comes with the phone for putting music onto the phone is quick and easy to useand the music player itself is as easy to use as any MP3 player. The external speakers are excellent, however the maximum volume when listening on headphones is rather quiet. (Don't get me wrong, it's more than adequate but of you want to blast your music loud, or completely drown out the annoying tunes being played over the loudspeakers in your local gym they leave a little to be desired. * The maps and GPS feature is excellent, however if you to choose to use it as...

Review of Nokia 5800 XpressMusic

A Wii bit musically challenged

Advantages: See Pros in review
Disadvantages: See Cons in review

... Wii MUSIC I think that Wii Music is a tricky game to review. When I purchased it for my son at Christmas, I visualised a Christmas with all the family joining in and enjoying the game, somehow that didn't really materialise. I can't really decide exactly what Wii Music is - is it a game, or is it a music sim? For anyone who is looking for a game like Guitar Hero they will be disappointed. I think many people thought that this game would teach them how to play an instrument but that is not what it is about, Wii Music is actually about the joy of making music. The emphasis seems to lie in having a good time, at the expense of everything else. Whatever you do, you're never told that you did something wrong or given any negative comments at all. What the game actually does is to the Nintendo Wii's motion...

Review of Wii Music (Wii)

Wii Music Falls Flat

Advantages: Good Amount Of Instruments To Play
Disadvantages: Very boring, Doesn't Let You play Beats, Just A God Awful Game

...This is a very different review for me, so I hope you enjoy it. Please rate and comment. Thank you. Wii Music I have spent weeks trying to get Wii music from Game at a good price, I missed the sale, so the only prices they had left was £34 and there was no way in hell that I was going to buy a game at that price. After a very hectic day, we ended up in a small town whilst my sister was getting her brace fixed, after sitting in the car in a traffic jam for 2 hours to get there (in the heat mind you), we were about ready to pass out in the car, so went for a little walk and found a blockbusters. There sitting in front of me was the game I wanted for £22.98 which was the price I was willing to pay. I came home with the game and for about 10 minutes I had great time learning the controls and playing the different games...

Review of Wii Music (Wii)

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...
