Sayz Me

Valerie
There are times when we simply want to listen to something as opposed to actually reading them. If you are an avid fan of text to speech programs or simply looking for one, then Sayz Me is one software you might want to try out. Reading through countless pages is much easier by simply copying and pasting the text onto Sayz Me and then listening to it. The program is very easy to use, provides a practical interface and best of all, absolutely free.

If you are the type of gamer that thinks that game art is equally important as the game itself, then you would definitely enjoy Umbrella Adventures.

It's a game that provides not only a solid gameplay, but rich graphics and a cool soundtrack.

WinDirStat

Freeing disk space is always a great way to speed up your PCs functions, but how do you figure out which program/file is hogging all your memory space?

Andrew Lawrence Jackson: The Last Romantic

Amihan
Andrew Lawrence Jackson’s "The Last Romantic" conveys quiet but subtly strong provocative emotions through the words and melody of each track. Not that Jackson has become predictable, but this album has all his usual overarching themes of life, love, and dreams. And then Jackson uses his own good vocals as a bonus element. The influence of the 80's electro beats is apparent in the album, as much as Jackson’s distinctive way of neatly expressing an otherwise messy pile up of thoughts and emotions in one’s over-analytical romantic head. Standouts in this album are “Your Dreams,” “Return To Love,” and “The Last Romantic” for its haunting melodies that linger in the air long after the song is over. That Jackson can put up a one-man show as singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist brings out the best in each track as he knows which instruments best highlight the subtle points of each song.

This Is My Normal State: Angel Falls ++

Valerie
Rock, ambient band that seeks to impress through a dreamy bassline and hauntingly sweet vocals. Hailing from Bristol, South West England, This Is My Normal State released their first recorded EP, Angel Falls ++ in 2009. This three song EP is filled with ambient rock sounds that comes with sweet, almost angelic, if you will, vocals from Yuka Kurihara. This album is the remastered version of their Angel Falls EP which the band recorded back in 2008. It is a quiet and slightly haunting trip down melodic soundscapes, much like walking into a colorful, beautiful but lifeless painting.
