Higher Plain Music is all about all the authors favourite musical artists and computer games. It’s aim is to promote them to others who are looking for new music and games to try, discuss shared passions with others and to discover and promote new material.

The musical side of the site will be a cross over of alternative music, independent artists and a large slice of Video Game Music (VGM).  They’ll be many reviews of cd’s and dvd’s, analysis of songs/albums and general chit-chat about them too – most of it is my own personal opinion and all is up for debate. I don’t want anyone to take my opinions as gospel but I do love talking about my favourite music as it’s a very passionate thing for me. Nothing can beat sitting down after a day at work and belting out some music while I munch of a slice of cake!

The games side of the site will take shape via written reviews on games old and new on the site and a vast collection of playthroughs and walkthroughs on our sister YouTube channel. I’m not the best gamer in the world but I spend so much time playing them and I have gained such a huge collection over the years, I like to bring back the nostalgia of games of old. All will be linked into the website here for easy access.

There’s also be a section on Audio/Visual movies. These are artistic films that overlay visuals to music and I really enjoy this type of film because it gets me creative with my own editing skills!

Lastly I actually do go out and buy every single album, single, game and film that is on this website. I will not tolerate any questions for sharing, torrents or the like. The reason I support indie developers and artists the most is because being one myself, I understand exactly how much effort the entire process of making something is and I don’t take kindly to a jumped up twerp thinking they have a right to steal someones work away from them.

If you are an artist, band, label, publicist, developer or distributor (or a one man band doing the lot!) please contact me with your requests. I’m glad to be of assistance and will happily assist you in any way possible! All discussions (unless they are interviews as they’ll obviously be posted) will be kept in the strictest confidence.

Many thanks,

Simon
