Pete had a little trip out to film Télégramme at Katie Fitzgerald's in Stourbridge and the legendary home of punk the Hope and Anchor in London to piece a few videos together. We hope you like them....my favorite is Dance.....Andy

Video by Pete Read at Musoplex, audio by Eddie Moreton at Katie's.

Télégramme can be contacted via Mikey at Freakin' Legend on Myspace.

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.

We ha the absolute pleasure of recording anti-folk hero Seth Faergolzia of Dufus (NY, NY, USA) at the Junction in Bristol last month.

Here is Tutu - the only video we can post as he says it as he means it but if you are fans you can catch all of the others on youtube...if you are over 18 and don't mind the cursing...

Cheers: Seth rules......excellent!

This weekend we were lucky enough to be hired to film and audio record Seth Faergolzia of Dufus on part of a rare solo European tour at the Junction in Bristol - Bristol's home of punk and anti-folk.

The audio is peachy, the video footage uploaded. All we need is a few camera shots from the gig itself for the CD / DVD sleeve. We know there were cameras there so is there any chance of mailing a few to musoplex@gmail.com??? PLEASSSEEEE X

A big thanks to Vicki for the organisation and all at the Junction for helping make it a great all-dayer. With Seth's permission we will add some footage this weekend. A true genius and an incredibly voiced, stunning songwritrer.

Pete is also busy filming a video for Telegramme - one of the Midlands finest, and poorest bands and thanks to Matt at Nuventure UK for the gig at the Stourbridge rock Cafe on Friday - all the audio is now in Logic and should be mixed by this weekend.

That is all.

Pete - our martyr to the cause - has spent 3 months growing a beard for 2 minutes of footage in a video for Summer's Day by Last Under The sun (available on Iron Man Records).

Now his work is almost done and next weekend comes the comedy film 'Get That Butt-Ugly Beard Off - It Reeks Of The Docks' and heralds the welcome return of 'Handsome Pete' (as he is known down the docks!). Just kidding ladies - he is cute under that beard and nobody has wanted him since 2 weeks into the growth...now's your time to bag a handsome, intelligent, shaven and house-trained artist :o)). Send all requests marked 'I Want Peej' to  musoplex@gmail.com and I will act as his lady distribution centre for the forseeable future. 

But I digress....this is a great combination of visuals and a storyline taken from a short film idea woven into a piece for Mark Badger at Iron Man Records. A sincere thanks to all those that came out to help.

Cheers

Andy

Musoplex are filming, photographing and audio recording 5 acts at Stourbridge's Rock Cafe on Sun 30th March.

The night is run by Matt and Co. at Nuventure - one of the Midland's fastest growing promotion companies - and is the start of what we hope are many more collaborations.

The live, multitracked, audio and 4-camera video footage will be mixed and mastered back at Musoplex and is already set for airplay on the 'Bridge radio station.

Band details will be confirmed and posted next week....keep em peeled....

Peej has just finished a new video - you can see it on his myspace (www.myspace.com/abstractreaction) before it gets linked to the Musoplex site.

He is already getting a lovely response but please feel free to add any comments about why you do / don't like it as he really does take all this stuff on board.

Other news:

We have nearly finished building Pete's new office / video suite :o))) I can get my office back then!! :o)

We have all the artists for our 1st CD release in Feb 2008 - thanks for the very positive and swift uptake..:o). All I need do now is nail the sponsor!! Look out - I know exactly where you live...

We have 2 recording artists in this weekend (sorry Si - poor booking schedule) - but look out for The Singles Club and 1st single from The Vouch.

Cheers y'all - will post before X-mas but a top one to all that don't bother reading the next one etc.
