I built and ran this website between 2000 and 2001, combining passion for popular music and programming. It was listed by MTV's now defunct MusicNewswire as one of the then nascent web's top twenty sources, alongside Billboard and VH1. The most exciting part of it — for a 13/14-year-old excited by new music — was receiving scores of pre-release CDs from record companies. The entire project was written entirely from scratch (frameworks and libraries were not the norm back then!) in PHP linking to a MySQL database, with HTML as well as a little CSS and JavaScript for the frontend; the code is available here.

Pepe Deluxe - Before You Leave
12 April 2001 | 0:00:00 GMT/UTC

You might not know the title or artist but I'm sure you've heard the tune, from a Levi's advertising campaign.

The companies twisted jeans have a dramatic effect on their wearers while they dance to this track, Before You Leave by Pepe Deluxe. The ad was directed by Frank Budgen, filmed in the outskirts of Capetown.

Pepe Deluxe consists of three members: James Spectrum, JA-Jazz and DJ Slow. Before You Leave is a slow funky dance track, it's very good :-).
