Two highly experienced editors and online music news journalists have joined ClashMusic.com. Coming after the announcement of GBP 500,000 of investment, the appointments will help ClashMusic.com's development as a leading music site.

Mike Diver and Will Kinsman will join ClashMusic.com after proving themselves at other music sites.

As Online Editor at DrownedinSound, Mike was responsible for their growth to one of the most highly respected online music news blogs. At ClashMusic.com, he will lead the online team, developing content and working with the site's communities.

Will Kinsman is a former editor of The Fly magazine. His experience of establishing a regional approach to music journalism was a key factor in his appointment at ClashMusic.com. Will's job will involve developing a team of online contributors across the UK, while also working on special projects for Clash's online and magazine formats.

Both men are delighted at their appointments, during a period of immense growth for ClashMusic.com.

Will Kinsman said: "I'm thrilled to be joining Clash at what is a hugely exciting time for the brand, with ambitious plans afoot to develop both the magazine and website. I fully expect the combination of Simon (Harper, Editor), Matt (Bennett, Deputy Editor), Mike and myself to become a formidable editorial team, whose complementary experience, skills and interests will deliver engaging editorial across print and online media, further establishing Clash as the leading voice in its field."

Mike Diver added: "I hope to be able to use my experience in the online field, evident in the growth of DrownedinSound over the past two years, to expand ClashMusic.com to the level it has the clear potential to reach. It's a market leader in waiting, and I'm excited by the possibilities ahead."

Simon Harper reflected these statements, saying: "The addition of Will and Mike into the Clash team comes at a vital juncture in the development of ClashMusic.com and our flagship, Clash Magazine.

"Both bring with them impeccable reputations, a wealth of experience, and contrasting tastes that will combine to push the Clash components to become the foremost source for astute music coverage. We welcome their expertise and look forward to them joining our burgeoning family."
