Welcome to the new Spirit of House website. This is not just a redesign, in fact the whole website is now based on a Content Management System (CMS) - so it could also be described as the rebirth of Spirit of House. Most importantly, the design is now separated from the content, allowing much easier updating of the look of the site.
There are some important changes that should make the content easier accessible:
- the Latest News box on the frontpage will give you direct access to the last added articles and news
- the Picks of the Week, 12" Reviews, Album Reviews and Classic Tips are now combined into Music Reviews
-
only content from 2005 has been added to the CMS - the content from 1996 to 2004 is available through the Archive link in the top menu
I hope you like the new look - enjoy your stay.
Regards,
Michael Fossati
