Goverment to cut internet allowance
The Government has announced it wants to ban the internet for people who download music and films.
A report was published in June regarding punishment to persistent illegal downloaders but Lord Mandleson has reportedly pushed for stricter penalties. However, the internet service providers have said they are disappointed with the proposal to force them to suspend or ban users with others declaring it a breach of human rights.

Are you a talented artist?
Levis and Vice have teamed up for a new venture.
The aim is to discover the best new designers, painters, artists and more in the UK to have their work displayed on huge sites throughout the capital. The project has no guidelines for the artists other than they should be showing what they think it means to live “unbuttoned”.
Winners will see their work blown up and featured in Camden (The Lock Tavern), Shoreditch (Village Underground) and Soho (The Breakfast Club). The overall winner will work with Vice’s Ben Freeman to bring their artwork up to the size “of a large building”.
The competition closes on September 1st. Go here for more information.

Memory Tapes
I would rather try to avoid sounding too much like every hype machine influenced blogger on the planet and blowing everything a gazillion miles out of proportion, but I genuinely have not been this excited about an album dropping in a very long time. Let me explain why.
Bicycle is the first single to come from the debut full length from Memory Tapes due in September and it is, and I will not hesitate in saying this, absolutely incredible. In amongst the excessive free downloads that the blogosphere shits out, regurgitates and shits out again (normally with additional corn-infested remixes) on a daily basis, songs like this are a huge breath of fresh air.
It’s beautifully composed; enough intricacies to keep your ears busy yet puts melody, uplifting choruses and New Order influenced basslines a priority so that it remains a pleasure to listen to again and again. And while most things surfacing at the moment are either club bangers or summertime grooves, this crossing the boundaries and sounds spectacular regardless of context. Enough bounce to keep dancefloors happy, and more than enough life assuring harmonies to fulfil the soundtrack of a perfect bicycle ride.
Seek Magic, the album this single is getting me all tingly and randy for, is available for pre-order now from Rough Trade. I personally am assured we’re in store for more lovely, lovely music.
Stanley.

Pirate Bay takeover hits snag
A Swedish company trying to buy The Pirate Bay torrent site has had its shares suspended.
Reports claim that Hans Pandeya of the Global Gaming Factory owes over half a million pounds to former board member Johan Sellström as well as allegedly owing over £65,000 in tax.
This means that the takeover of The Pirate Bay and subsequent turning it into a legal download site, is on hold.
