Missing past issues? Can't find an Sound On Sound article?

If you've reached this page, it is most likely because you tried accessing a URL for an Sound On Sound article which has not yet been migrated from our old site.

On 15 June 2016 we launched this current incarnation of the SOS web site, which currently hosts 11,487 independent, high quality, in-depth reviews / techniques / interviews / tutorial articles — plus news and SOS Forum posts.

independent, high quality, in-depth reviews / techniques / interviews / tutorial articles — plus news and SOS Forum posts. We are working hard to get the remaining issues converted into the new site format but this can only be done in main magazine/website production 'downtime' and it is a long-winded, convoluted process and we apologise for the delay.

Past issues are generally being added one edition at a time to this SOS site, in reverse order, until we get back to January 1994 — although we have recently been adding individual articles and still-relevant/useful series from older issues, when requested.

Temporary Solution?

Thanks go to a wonderful non-profit organisation called Web.Archive.org, who run their Wayback Machine service that catalogues billions of web pages daily from all web sites. This means it has captured snapshots of the full SOS legacy site, as it used to be — meaning SOS articles not yet on our own site can still be found in Wayback's extensive web archived pages.

We have catalogued the SOS missing articles from January 1994 to December 2001 and built two indexes: one by issue and one listing all articles.

Clicking article links on these Index pages will open the legacy site article on Wayback Machine.

Good news: with the help of SOS Forum member desmond, we will soon be able to add the January 1994 to December 2001 articles to this site.
