Some "new funky pics" of Will Mills, Head of music, Shazam
He's sucking in his tummy so hard there's a chance he'll either faint or poo himself.
Expensive trousers. Whatever Shazam is or does, it must do well enough to keep paying its staff even in these troubled times.
He doesn't look urban enough to own his own "deck". This will be the boy from the post room's "deck". Are they called decks? Do the kids even have records any more? Is new music still being produced?

I thought a deck was a skate board? I can't keep up :(
Also, holding a record player up to your head is moronic. there's a reason that pose is associated with 'Ghetto blasters' i.e. something that has an amplifier and batteries AND CAN ACTUALLY BE HEARD YOU BLOODY MORONS
I know what Shazam does.
If you're in a club or something and you hear a track that you like, you hold your phone up and dial a number and 2 minutes later it sends you a text telling you what the track is. It claims to use clever wave recognition algoritms but could use a call centre full of third world children, or magic for all I know.
I think it's pretty cool but then again I'm a sad bastard.
In a where?
Frodo clealry showe he's not up with the times..
Shazam is good. I'm stupid enough to pay for it when I really need to know what the song is that I can hear. You call 64046 and just let it listen for a bit. Then it hangs up on you and if it can work out what the tune is, it sends you a text. If it can't, you don't pay. It costs 50p, or did last time I used it.
It's basically the Gracenote tech with a telephone front end.
So...all the above being true...why does it need a "head of music"? What does he do?
Great to see that Tomorrow's World stalwart Howard Stableford has a new "gig", as da kidz would say.
If i had a daughter this gut would be going nowhere near her. FACT
What's wrong with Diesel!?
"Henleys Project" is the new chavy aspirational brand
He gets my vote for twat of the year.
No, kids do not have decks that play records any more. As a young person who is a student who is also a DJ I can inform you that I exclusively kick out the tunes on my iPod DJ docking station.
D&B DJ's still use vinyl, most of the house/electro/minimal crew use CD's & CDJ's though. Having said that go into Phonica, Black Market (BM Soho) and various other shops and vinyl is still used. DJing on a laptop looks like you're checking your e-mail and officially not a good idea...
great pics - they should fire the pr straight away. Shazam is very cool tho
"Kick out tunes"
What is that? Is it like kicking puppies? Do you like kicking puppies Mr Student? Is that all the rage now among "the kids". You all skateboard down to the bus shelter, drink your bottles of Smirnoff Ice and kick poor defenceless puppies to death.
For shame.
in my day it was 20/20...
bulogi italian caviar?
