When I say born on that date, I mean that is when the idea and the first steps came into action of making the site. I don't really know how it all came about doing a music review site, I think that I had a moment of motivation to make a new music related site that I could update easily and also get other people involved in the updating of the site. So as I was talking to my friend (Arfyn, first official reviewer to be taken on board) about what he thought of the idea, and whether he'd be interested at becoming a reviewer. With the answers of "It's a good idea" and "Sure thing" that's when it was time to get to work on the site.

Now what I actually what the site is about is pretty obvious as you can imagine, it's a music review site looking at classic and latest singles and albums, and also live performance reviews. I figured that the inclusion of classic singles/albums would make the site a bit different to most review sites around today. I know that I for one would like to know about reviews of latter music as well as current.

As you can see in the picture above, that this really isn't anything massive but I am hoping to get reviewers from all over involved with writing reviews. There's no money involved with the site, all reviews are submitted with the knowledge that there isn't any money involved with respects to review submissions.

The way that the rating system works (just in case you couldn't figure it out when you read a review) by using an 'out of 5 stars' rating system, 0 being appalling and 5 being brilliant. All genres of music can be reviewed here, it's not limited to one particular genre. Obviously people will have their own preferences to what they review for example I will mainly review Alternative / Indie / Rock.

Anyway, I think that's about all I need to tell you all about the site, there's really not much else to say other what I have already rambled on about. So enjoy the site, and feel free to send your reviews in and if you want to become a regular reviewer then just let me know. Oh, and also 'UK Music Review' doesn't mean on UK based material is reviewed, it just means its a UK based reviewing site.
