The lang cat’s albums of 2014
Another year passes, another trip around the sun, another year closer to our eternal reward, another blog about music that no-one will read. Time, as you know, is an artificial construct designed to explain the otherwise random passing of events, and an attempt to place order on a pointless and terrifying universe. 365 days is […]
MAKING A DRAMA OUT OF A CRISIS
Those ‘OMG’ I’m going to get fired! moments in the life of a PR are actually quite rare. Thankfully. But they are moments that stay with you for ever.
