Here Stuart Smith finishes off some of the rooms and stands from Friday plus some of the bigger rooms he missed on the Saturday.

For the uninitiated, The Manx call themselves a band but are really more like a tightly knit artist collective (think Gwar), orbiting the Los Angeles comedy and animation scene with members stationed at Cartoon Network, and one who’s even created characters on Rick and Morty. It’s through these affiliations that Justin Roiland comes to star […]
Oxnard-based artist Los Retros, born Mauri Tapia, announces his debut EP ‘Retrospect’ and shares a new single, ‘Friends’.

Cary Audio have launched a new version of their SLI-80 integrated amplifier. The new SLI-80HS (Heritage Series) maintains the integrity of its predecessor. Its circuit uses very little feedback which gives it, say Cary, “incredible transparency and detail in the music while providing bass texture and impact that belies its rated power output”.
Saturday afternoon was time to pop over to the Marriott for the Hifi Deluxe Show. This runs in the afternoons/evenings on the Thursday, Friday and Saturday at the same time as the High End Show. With the difficulty in getting rooms at the MOC it is inevitable that a sideshow happens and you do find […]

A reflective take on modern-day disconnect, it’s Rock’n’Roll but not as you know it, pairing icy vocals with trip-hop inflicted rhythms. Yesterday, we teamed up with […]
