Glastonbury 2011: A DiS Diary By Rory Gibb
DiS' Rory Gibb pilgrimaged to Pilton, and here's his diary.... "There are so many stages, bars, themed areas and tiny oddities to discover across the course of five days that it’s no longer necessary to worry about being at a certain place for a certain band at a certain time. That’s something the BBC’s TV coverage only ever touches upon, and even commentary from news outlets like the Guardian often downplays its importance, beyond spouting vague pronouncements about the ‘Glasto spirit’."»

Iceland Airwaves: The DiS Review
Reykjavík is a beautiful city. That’s the first thing that springs to mind when we arrive within its limits during the pitch black early hours, virtually nonexistent street light during the drive from the airport sending a striking vista of stars rolling out across the night sky. Despite Friday morning dawning cool and cloudy, it’s no less impressive in the morning light: old-style buildings and expanses of green are interspersed with modern touches and unfinished constructions, perhaps continued relics of the country’s monetary collapse. But for all that event’s devastating economic and social impacts, the city’s yearly Iceland Airwaves festival couldn’t feel more open and welcoming in 2010, with a diverse and friendly crowd and an almost unnerving volume of excellent music. »
This Week's Singles: 13/09/10
This week: singles for Beatniks, packing suitcases and - WHATEVER NEXT - falling in love. I think I may need to get me some cynicism, but sadly the cupboard's bare, like.»

This Week's Singles: 14/06/10
Single Of The Week! Everything Everything - ‘Schoolin’ (Geffen) One of the things I like most about The Shins, is their knack in pitching lyrics on the right side of impenetrability. For it seems to me the best lyrics – the ones that compel»
This Week's Singles: 01/02/10
I will hadmit that this week there is quite a lot of nearly-but-not-quite singling going on - and that is Indie's fault, not mine. It is also absolutely nothing to do with how bad mooded I am today, having been LOCKED OUT OF MY OWN HOUSE. Luckily The Strange Boys manage to rise above the dirge with their messy old thing of a seven and make it alright again. Thank heavens for boys. »
"Pay whatever you feel is right..." Downloading, eating fish and fighting: DiS meets Röyksopp
Röyksopp's Svein Berge talks about the two sides to the band's music, guest vocalists, Spotify, and why having 3000 mp3s on your hard drive is the same as an attic full of crap. »
In Photos special: The Camden Crawl 2008
From the archive... DiS did the Camden Crawl 2008 the weekend just gone, chasing NW1’s cracked pavements in pursuit of hawt young t’ings. And the Fratellis. Here's an In Photos gallery of many Crawl acts, including those on the DiS stage»
Eurosonic 2008: the DiS review
Eurosonic is apparently focussed on Swedish music this year. This is supported by the appearance of several Swedish artists in Groningen, in the northern region of The Netherlands, including the chart-topping Robyn. But DiS is in town to see Brits, too, such as a sensationally on-form Blood Red Shoes»
