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.

Ooberman - Dolphin Blue
24 November 2000 | 0:00:00 GMT/UTC

Dolphin Blue is Ooberman's bid for the Christmas number one, it sounds good enough. Good melodies and strange production which works. Also on the CD version of the single are C'est La Vie - more rocky than Dolphin Blue with a catchy chorus and Laughter Lines a slow, jazzy tune.

Great single, unfortunately won't make Christmas number one but deserves to.


4/5
