A big Hey to all our reader ;o)))
First the bad news - The E-Go's. After a frank and honest chat between the Raven: label and the band we have mutually decided not to progress with the signing. The E-Go's are a truly fab band and their recordings were progressing really well too. However, we are probably not big enough to handle their needs as they progress so all we can do is say thanks and offer them all our love and best wishes for what should be a glorious future. Cheers - Andy and Si.
On the good news front
We had an excellent weekend of recording with a new band to us called We All Need Heroes. In that short time they have managed to leave with 4 exceptional demo tracks. I just await permission before I upload any but cheers guys - Si said you were a pleasure to work with.
Discotheque Wreck were also in for final mixing and mastering of 2 tracks they have been working on for the last 500 years ;o). Actually just over a few days but they are a very complex and multilayered dance / indie band. Again - gimme a few days and you can hear em once approved.
We had the pleasure of no less than 2009's Brummie of the Year / Kerrang! DJ and music legend Johnny Doom in yesterday recording vocals for...well, I can't tell you what for...... However, if this ever gets back to Mr. Doom....Erosion is a staring agog at the sun with eyes wide open, brain sandblasting masterpiece. Now I get it!
We also finished, completely, never come back ;o), Zanzibar's album......Zanzibar......actual......proper.......songwriting.
And Carol......how can we forget Carol......? What the hell is your surname?? Carol has been writing for a new theatre production and popping in and out for a few weeks effortlessly putting down her tunes, lead and backing vocals to songs as she finishes them (5 or 6 now??). To have such a consumate professional breezing through the place is lovely.
And the ever incredible Lokey - now up to 14 tunes, picking up more interest and momentum every day. It is a project of Si (our head producer) and The Ox (poet / performance artist / great big bushy beard) and they have now been joined on several tracks by Si and Seano (Drums and Guitar - PB and LUTS). Seriously - this album is gonna fry brains.....every song gets better and better.
So - no time to chat.....I am also sorting out my car insurance and doctors appointments after getting rammed up the rear on Tuesday. Couldda been worse but ouch - that hurts!!!
Smell y'all soon.
Andy, Si, Pete and Katie - Musoplex
We don't post as much as we should cos we are too busy.....but enough excuses.....here's several reasons why we are the best studio in Brum :o)))
