The Wider World Of Audio Production and Radio Advertising
Jordan Thomas on 9th July at 12:13pm

Jordan Thomas on 22nd April at 11:36am
This is going to sound like a little bit of a rant… and to all intents and purposes, it is. Having recently delved into the domain of Spotify to find some very random pieces of music while ploughing through a mountain of paperwork, it is a serious ir...

Jordan Thomas on 22nd April at 11:30am
Summer is here (or will be soon) As much as I am happy that we’re now able to go wandering round the streets of London sans coat (without the danger of dying of frostbite), it does beg the question of the need to start thinking about creative for ...

Of course, we’ve always got one ear on the radio here at MSS (it keeps our ears warm) and whilst listening to Jack FM the other day, we heard this little beauty. It made the whole office laugh, so much so that we decided to include it in this new...
