Alex Mead

 
Working as a DBA for an IT support company, in my spare time I enjoy writing, playing music, reading comics, running around in circles and generally finding more and more questionable ways to entertain myself. I play bass in 2 bands and stand by one life philosophy; 'To make at least one person laugh every day'. I've been doing this ever since I was 16 and I do it to make the world a better place in my own little way.


Alicia Ballard

 
With an instrumental range varying from ukulele right the way to alto sax, it’s fair enough to say that my music taste is pretty eclectic. But as first and foremost a listener and lover of the good stuff, I’m addicted to rock and blues. Then again, I do sometimes find myself partial to a nice singer/songwriter. Or a bit of cheesy mainstream pop... Or a big dollop of the alternative arty kind… Ah shucks, I just love it all!



Angela

 
Greetings and salutations! I'm Ange and i'm one of the editors of Entertainment Cocktail. Sometimes you might catch me posting a couple of articles... Predictably, seeming as I am working on here, I like games, film and music. I particularly love anything a bit quirky or aesthetically pleasing. I am one of those annoying know-it-alls who likes to know everything first so I can tell everyone. I'm full of trivial facts and I want to share them with you!


Ben Kahan

 
If I were a car, I'd be a 1978 Mini Cooper Saloon - red, with racing stripes. Why? Because I love drinking petrol and I painted two racing stripes from my nutsack to my forehead, right now, to prove my point. I'm a magician, hypnotherapist and casino poker dealer, which is because I'm an actor, and we make very little money and have to make do. Also, just a side note, "hypnotherapist" just came up with red squiggly lines on spellcheck, which shocks me because a) "hypnotherapy" doesn't and b) I consider this spellcheck as a gauge of future success in life and have found myself heartily disappointed. Ironically, this spellcheck doesn't recognise "spellcheck". This has just created a black hole on the screen on my laptop, so I'll be going now to find something to fill it.



Cat Smith

 
Hello there! I'm Cat, I'm 19, and I have a passion for music. I can't decide who are my all-time-favourite artists, but Spotify tells me I like PJ Harvey, Laura Marling, Sea of Bees and Grimes at the moment. I'll take their word for it. Of course, I love to write...and that's why I'm here, ta-da!


Duncan Grantham

 
Well I geuss I should summise my musical tastes. I think Stephen Malkmus is probably the best lyricist since Dylan and I have a man crush on Julian Casablancas. Despite this I'd rather be Elvis Costello than anyone. So basically I like words and tunes and noises and the odd silly hat.



Ian Thorpe

 
I have been playing games since I could hold the controller. I have owned every Games Console and have an extensive collection of classic games. I was appointed Head of Gaming since the sites conception and write for all areas under the gaming header, with the main focus of reviews and opinion pieces. Outside of the office I am a massive Watford FC fan, I love a good film and am a TV addict.


Jay Parmar

 
Hi there! I'm Jay and I'm 20, currently studying Digital Forensics and System Security (BEng) at Coventry University. As you can probably guess from that, I do a lot of 'computer things', but my interests lie in many other things too. I enjoy my music and film perhaps a little too much! 'David Bowie' and 'Inglourious Basterds' are the answers to your questions. That's pretty much me at the moment!



Jon Fuge

 
I am a man of mystery. So, for that reason, you will learn nothing about me here.


Owen Evans

 
Hey all, I'm Owen and I love me my video games, especially beat-em-ups and survival horrors. I've been playing video games since I can remember and the first games system I had was the ZX Spectrum, which was awesome. I do also love my movies, but you will find the vast majority of my articles will be about games (what can I say, I prefer games to movies).



Robert Thorpe
