Music Blog: The 5 albums that changed my life

18/06/201917/06/2019Ninja RefineryComment(0)

It sounds dramatic, doesn’t it? Albums that change your life? But, honestly, I think it’s actually a pretty common experience shared by all of us who listen to music and buy albums. Perhaps it was more prevalent when people actually bought albums, instead of just streaming singles, but I feel like it’s a universal experience, […]

After years of waiting, and scraps of demos and live versions of new songs, Brand New have just released their new album “Science Fiction”. How does it stack up against their catalogue?

Game soundtracks – Do you listen to them?

14/03/201710/07/2017Ninja RefineryComment(1)

Preface I’ve recently been given a download to the Hitman soundtrack (looks like anyone who bought the game gets an email, which is pretty cool!), and then I got the Assassin’s Creed Unity soundtrack using some of my uPlay points, and it’s got me thinking……..do people listen to these outside of their original context? If […]
