Interesting times at the studio - that's why we opened it...
We are just about entering our second year after the build of the new place and it seems life forever ago and just last week all at once. Spend too long thinking about it and my head turns to fog....
The Skullfox artwork is done and awaiting band approval - all songs will also be remastered prior to pressing - although they are still sounding hot after 2 months and a revisit - which is always pleasing :o)
Pete is just finishing his videos for Telegramme before moving onto some more artwork design for The Dreaming Tree.
We have our promoters in place to help us kill off the whole robbing BOTB concept from Autumn 2008 - keep watching.
Andy's recording of Evangeline's Easy Now went top 5 (from over 25, 000 acoustic songs) in some online acoustic charts whose name evades me at the mo but I'll look it up later - still....very nice for all concerned! :o)
Monday and Tue this week sees 60% of the legendary Nightingales in to pre-prep record new material before flying off to take it to the other band members - how cool a lifestyle does that sound?
Hidden in here is a huge congrats to Alex too....well done buddy.....I believe the contacts are signed today?
So now I am off on a week's holiday and you are all up to date. If anybody needs anything - call or e-mail the other 2 - but don't expect anything before midday - these guys are serious artists and should be treated as such!!!!! :o)
See you all soon.

Again for my embed code but for all of you into your well written and performed acoustic artists check this out. Easy Now by Evangeline (Ian Babington and Pete Raj) is one of 6 songs recorded live at the Musoplex Framework Studios and is currently on limited release and available for download.
Lovely
A big thanks to Radio WM for playing both The Cubans (Daz Hale and Brett and Louise) More Fool You Today this week and Evangeline's Easy Now last week (Brett and Louise again) on Radio WM - seriously - massive thanks.
Evangeline - a reformed mix of Ian Babinton and Pete Raj from Leicester were in for a live acoustic set recording a few weeks ago and look set to release 'Easy Now' and others on an EP in June.
The session was recorded by Andy Ward, engineered by Si Reeves and Andy, mixed and mastered by Andy in a 4 hour studio session followed by 6 hours of studio time engineering the 7 tracks recorded in the session.
Personally, we were well happy with the session, they were excellent musicians and songwriters and thoroughly enjoyable company to wile away a Sunday afternoon with.
So - here is a preview - Easy Now is a beauty of a song and still an in-car CD favorite.
