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.

Tall Paul - Precious Heart
2 August 2001 | 10:57:00 GMT/UTC

Tall Paul - not quite tall enough for this cameraThis is a remix of Paul Newman's favourite INXS track - Never Tear Us Apart. Originally meant as "something special" to play to Australian audiences, it seemed to "take on a life of its own".

Paul calls this Precious Heart, the words that feature in this record - courtesy of Michael Hutchence. "Don't ask me/What you know is true/Don't have to tell you/I love your precious heart."

Tall Paul describes it as "a tribute to a great song encapsulated for the dance floor". The original was a "great song" and he has done well sampling the vocal and the end result is a good record.

The CD single also includes a remix from Lush, a chilled mix for the summer.
