Excerpts from A Very Spectrum Christmas (Part 2) by Thomas A. Christie. "Compendium" by Gremlin Graphics (1987).

Throughout the 1980s, thousands of British children were lucky enough to discover a Sinclair ZX Spectrum under their Christmas trees and soon found their eyes opened to a virtual world of wonder. But Santa Claus did more than deliver computers — sometimes he appeared on them, too. This book delves into the Spectrum’s extraordinary pantheon of seasonal games: the good, the bad, the surprising, the unabashedly surreal and the occasionally rather tenuous.

Dockem X Malone - C4 (original music video)

One of the most exciting duos to emerge from the UK underground scene this year, Dockem & Malone have picked up heat across the likes of VIPER MAGAZINE, Conversations About Her and GRM Daily, as well as significant radio attention from DJ Target, Toddla T, Semtex and BBC Introducing.The duo first grabbed public attention with their single “Get Right”, catching the ear of Semtex and being playlisted on Spotify’s Official Rap UK playlist. It marked the beginning of an accelerated career that’s seen them race to over 100,000 combined streams in this year alone. An assured debut performance at Stormzy’s Merky Festival in Ibiza this summer and their first BBC Introducing Live Lounge performance continues the trajectory Dockem & Malone are creating for themselves.
