Created by Dave Tiffen, the ex-manager of The Sleep and Basic Essentials, along with Basic Essentials bassist Andrea James, the Certain Gestures fanzine was available from Head Sounds, Guildford. Issue No.4 included a feature on Paul Cummins and Simon Raymonde’s new band Wild About Harry. Issue No.5, if this is indeed the same fanzine, consisted ‘entirely of arty images’.

Around the same time as Issue No.4 was published Tiffen and James were forming Somewhere in Europe.
