Raining.fm is a small project by myself Neil Lockwood,
I am based out of Australia, I live with my beautiful fiance Amy and my two amazing sons Caden and Tate, I would like to dedicate this site to them.
During the week I work in web design and development at Div Party and love to work on passion projects such as this. In the evenings you can catch me getting pwned on Battlefield 3 (PC) and smashing it up with the bronzies in Starcraft 2 ;p
I would like to thank the following people for their awesome work, without whom this project would have taken waaay longer.
