Dan blogs about London’s grime music for the sheer hell of it, and as a freelance journalist covers everything from flash mobs to hip-hop’s use of similes. A former New Statesman columnist, he has written for The Guardian, The Independent, New Statesman, The Word, FACT, Woofah, Nylon, Chinadialogue and Dazed&Confused. He is a journalist by day, and a political geek in his spare time. Dan won £683.61 betting on the 2005 UK General Election; and no, he’s not giving you any tips next time around.

Tom is an Eagle Award-winning illustrator, animator, and comic artist – an all-round demon with a pen and a pad. Also from London, his work has taken him to Warsaw, Toronto, and Aberdeen, and despite these setbacks he refuses to give up. But why should he? His work has exhibited at the Vegas Gallery, the Hayward Gallery, and the ICA, and been profiled in Dazed&Confused. Tom’s caustic self-published comics sell out print run after print run, and he has gathered a global following under his pseudonym ‘Vented Spleen’.
