Drowned In Sound

As I mentioned in my CV, I did a week of work experience with Drowned In Sound records in 2005. They're a small indie label but have earned a good name for themselves in the industry. DIS began as a website run by Sean Adams, who then set up the record label, Drowned in Sound recordings. The first artists signed to DIS records were the Kaiser Chiefs and the limited edition single "Oh My God" was released.
Anyway, as I said, I worked there for a week in 2005 and had a few news stories and music reviews published on the website.
This is some of the stuff I did:

News Story: Victoria Bergsman leaves The Concretes (read it here)

News Story: Placebo announce December tour dates (read it here)

News Story: Animals become Men at 18? Young Knives announce shows... (read it here)

News Story: Little Barrie keeping themselves busy... (read it here)

Single Review: Panic! At The Disco "Lying Is The Most Fun A Girl Can Have Without Taking Her Clothes Off" (read it here)

Single Review: Moneen "If Tragedy Is Appealing, Then Disaster's An Addiction" (read it here)

Single Review: My Awesome Compilation "Awake" (read it here)

Some terrible single titles there, I know.
Anyway, working at a record label is what I'd like to do in the future so that week was a good experience for me, and I learnt to make tea exactly the way everyone liked it (though the coffee machine was an entirely different matter)
