Things we love

Internet Radios Internet Radios - As well as being a standard digital radio you can use your Last.fm account to ‘scrobble’ your fave music; you have the choice of hundreds of Internet radio stations – heck you can even sync it with your laptop via wifi to play your itunes library! All together now, oooooooh.
Cafe Latte Cafe Latte - We cannot get enough of these milky wonders! We’ve also taken to tipping the calorie scales and adding whipped cream and chocolate shavings to the top. Who needs Starbucks?
iPod loo roll iPod Toilet Roll Dispenser - We have started writing our letters to Santa and I for one have this little sucker right at the top of the list. I mean who wouldn’t love this gadget right?
Sweets Old Fashioned Sweets/Retro Sweets – Gobstoppers, cola cubes, rhubarb and custard need I say more… We have been munching and chewing all month. One taste of these sweets and we were transported back to the carefree days of childhood – anyone got the number of a good dentist?
Bonfire Night Bonfire Night – in this the festive season we have also been munching hotdogs and saying ‘ooh….aaaahhh….wow…eeee’ a lot at various firework displays; proving you don’t have to be the right side of 18 to enjoy them!!
Halloween Bonfire Night – we embraced the spirit of the season and have been dressing up as ghoulish creatures for our Halloween party. We even dressed the Sandstorm dogs in their own costumes!
USB Disco Ball - The affordable way to jazz up your office, well we say office – at £1 this USB powered LED based Disco ball isn’t really powerful enough to make an impact in most offices. But it’s great in our edit suite and creative rooms. As this video will show you. Available at all forward thinking affordable stores!
Spotify - Although BBC 6 music is keeping us from ‘sonic disputes’, Spotify is a wonderful database of music which we’ve used a lot recently to get inspiration for videos and also to steer music styles for projects. After one simple download you can listen to 50% of the world’s music – including some really rare stuff. Although don’t get your hopes too high, we’ve found a lot of artists don’t feature at all on Spotify.
Nespresso Machine - great quality coffee in a few seconds. Since the machine landed at Sandstorm HQ we have been sampling the delights of coffee from Columbia, Italy and India – all from the comfort of the studio.
BBC 6 Music - Playing everything from yesteryear to today this station is perfect for anyone with varied music tastes. It has put a stop to arguments in the office about which station to listen to!
Vogue Magazine - and this is just the boys… seriously we’re constantly cutting images out and sticking them to our ‘mood wall’ in the ‘imagine’ room.
