CD Launch Party - Photos








CD Launch Party 2009

The launch party held in the rehearsal studios at Strode College was great. The venue was packed and everyone had their CD and promotional material set out on a stall of their own. There were live performances and DJ sets alongside screenings of the latest music videos made by the students.

I will post more on this later and we also have some photos too

We really need someone else to start posting on this Blog (hint!)

MudSlideSlim - CD Project

Mudslideslim is a one-man band recorded at home in “slim studios”. Mudslideslim has produced a 5-track E.P compilation of dub step, Funk and chilled easy listening music.

The E.P named red moon has 4 tracks of just Mudslideslim and one track starring George Garret scratching. Mudslideslim has been working for around 4 years on writing and producing his own music, with a wide range of influences like artists such as tom waits, Andy c, Radiohead, faith no more and the punk days of the chillies Mudslideslim has struggled to settle down on one sound, but over the last couple of months the electronic rhythms and grooves have started to show.

The music on the new C.D is aimed at people who like a bit of ambient and soul in there music, I have added 2 funk tracks in there to just so the chilled listening doesn’t bore you ears to much.

The last track titled D.R Congo, is a mix of dub step, with some added break beats and interesting harmony. This CD is aimed at people who like a bit of variety with their music and are happy to listening to anything.

Mudslideslim tracks will be available to buy and download on facebook come the end of March.

Today the group worked on a new track. John played guitar, Tegan sang through effects, Joe played loops, Shane used Logic software, Marcus used a MIDI drum pad to play beats, Millie played keys, Adrian on bass and Ralph played the melody on a Rhodes keyboard sound.

The track is shaping up with some reggae influences, a funky bassline taken from an old 'Funkadelic' track and a wicked melody created by Ralph. Joe dropped in a break beat and some nice low bass sounds. We worked on a visual score to help arrange the track and build dynamics.
