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)))

Two new metal recordings....
Skull Fox - Studio favorites with a new hybrid live recording of a new EP - this track (For the Sake of Retribution) will be on their new EP. Launch TBD but just how much have these guys grown in a year??? Excellent.
New to the studio were the very impressive Shot in the Dark - If All Else Fails was one of 3 songs done in just a day.....awesome drums.....
More recordings to post soon :o).

framework Studios at Musoplex have taken on a new freelance producer in the form of Lee Phillips (www.cornerstudios.co.uk) and he starts his full-on time solo work at the end of the month.
Meaning......when Lee has our weekends we can do some cheaper daytime rates as it frees up the legendary Si Reeves (worked on Napalm Death, Bjork/Carcass / PJ Harvey at Framework).
From £150 a day (Mon - Thurs) he represents incredible value for money. You can always still book Framework and Si Fri - Sun starting at £250 a day for longer runs.
More to follow as we have also created our own promotional gig arm with Matt from Nuventure...
A new recording and partial new line-up as one of the 90's most esteemed UK punk bands comes back to the studio for the first time in years with new material to accompany a UK and European tour this spring / summer. Catch some of last years European tour footage on youtube - peejmakesvideos. (http://www.youtube.com/results?search_type=&search_query=peejmakesvideos&aq=f). Not suitable for minors.
For release on Iron Man Records we can't wait to have them back in.
This blog will keep you updated with their studio progress, release schedule, tour dates and everything else as they arise.
Champion :o)

Hope you got your dancing booties on.

byeeeee

Recorded, engineered, produced, mixed ad mastered by Si Reeves at Framework Studios based at Musoplex (Brum, Midlands, UK).
Bless their little metal socks!! :o)
Haha - well I thought it was a lovely pic...then Pete stats sending these through....and it goes swiftly from photography to art....here's what he did with me and the first of The Follow On pics to come through....thanks Pete for making me look cool :o)
First of all - sorry - I don't get much of a chance to do this at the moment and really it takes minutes rather than hours but we can still hardly get the time in.
We hit 10, 000 hits on our website (www.musoplex.com) and for a year in wayyyy exceeded out plans and hopes. We are rapidly approaching 1000 myspace friends too so a big tanks again.
We had a fun week and weekend with 3 recordings booked in - one of which we had to put off till next week so a big big sorry Steve - see you Wednesday :o)
On Thursday we live recorded Laika Dog (the new band of Terrorvision's Tony Wright), Eureka Machines (if you see a poster - go and see them), Red Already and Discotheque Wreck - both under construction but had a massive turnout and justifiably warm reception.
On Saturday we did a PA hire and engineering of a 2.5kW rig for Millenium of Blood (very metal night) and within 5 minutes one of our brand new set of midrange speaker stacks had blown and had to be replaced. Skullfox were show stealers, the PA worked in the end, Martyr de Mona were stylish and Adrenaline did exactly what they said on the tin. Not everything will always run smoothly and Si got us through it all.......cos I forgot I was playing myself in Dudley that night. We set up, soundchecked, changed speakers, crossed our fingers and hey presto. I had to leave at 9.30, play a 40 minute set 15 miles away then come back to strip down. An interesting day that saw me start at 1pm a finish at 3am.......
This week we mix the live stuff from last week, record Steve Hadley, Police Ba****d are in writing material for a new album, the rehearsal rooms are all buzzing, we hire out the PA again on Sat, Pete photoshops pics from Thurs night and on Sunday I see my lovely wife and see if we recognise each other. Guess what we are doing.....go on.....that's right - going to see some bands in Cannock hahahahaha....
I'll post the pics and live recs from Thurs when we get them finished....
Between now and the end of the year we already have to start 3 studio albums and record 4 EPS and are expecting a 5th or 6th too....but have no fear - we're here to help and can always do more as long as we don't compromise either your material or the studios name. We don't allow jobbing producers - everything that goes out the studio bears our name and we value it so you can always be assured of the best possible service and sound.
CHEERS
