  1. Hi there

    I think your singing has potential, I think it should be far louder in the mix. From what I could hear you had some interesting lyrics and you have a good sense of pitch and rhythm, make the most of it. I think you should experiment with someone else doing the guitar, or introducing more instruments. Perhaps an acoustic bass (double bass) and drumkit? It seems to me like you are going for a folky sound.

    Cheers

  2. I like what you have done here. It's simple, not that I mean that it's simple but that it is not extravagant. You have kept with the beat, which I think is the key in this kind of music. The use of the female voice keeps people's attention. I'd love to hear your stuff at some gigs or something, are you doing any?

  4. Hello

    Multi Ethnic Aberdeen are holding a jobs and business far at the Music Hall on Saturday 22nd March. They are looking for local bands to play.

    PLEASE NOTE: There will not be a PA so anyone who is interested has to be able to play acoustically. There is no fee available for the performance but the organiser is willing to cover moderate travelling expenses.

    If you are interested please e-mail Daniel Christian: daniel@multiethnic.co.uk

    Cheers

  5. That's interesting Jane! Are you planning to do it live?

    Kind of reminded me a little of experimental Arthur Russel stuff but more classical... take a listen I think you will dig:

    MySpace.com - Arthur Russell - NEW YORK, New York - Experimental / Disco House / Pop - www.myspace.com/anotherthought

    Hope to hear some more of your experiments!

    Colin :up:

    Cheers hun, I'm seriously thinking about buying a loop pedal now. I saw Wounded Knee when he was playing with interesting music last week and thought he was ace. I'm really into the looping thing just now. Next experiment I think will be with Ravel's Bolero, but will need to wait to save up some pennies and get my own loop pedal first :-)

  6. qft, I don't like this moaning about lack of attention from the local press, it leads me down an avenue of thought which results in the conclusion that these people are only in a band in the first place because they are massive attention-whores.

    Anyone who is genuinely outraged at the fact the P&J won't do a column/insert/article about their "act" or their "scene" needs to stop whining and make the scene speak for itself, instead of adopting this pathetic passive attitude like spoilt children who are suddenly discovering that even though their mum will give them a standing ovation, nobody in the real world gives a fuck.

    Stripey, sometimes you just hit the nail on the head. People need to stop being so insular and just get out there and do stuff :-) I guess I was guilty of this through a lack of self confidence but with passing year and a list of trust sponsors racking up I guess I've got to the point where I think 'oh well I must be doing something right' and feel more at ease with my own ability and approaching people.

  7. Hey everyone

    I want everyone to send me an e-mail telling me about all events that are happening in Aberdeen. Regular weekly night such as pub quizes, gigs, exhibitions, club nights, art exhibitions, academic lectures, everything!!

    All events that are open to the public will be organised by day and submitted for publication in a local Aberdeen publication.

    Please send the details to carmichaeljayne@hotmail.com

    Cheers
