Brand new single from the most excellent Koncordia guys! These guys are so good in the studio and live and all you promoters out there should be booking them!! It’s always such fun recording with these two and I’ve been dying for them to release a track from last years sessions. Check them out and enjoy ✌️

HUGE thank you to all the bands and artists I’ve had the pleasure of working with in 2022. It’s been my busiest yet! I’ve been quite overwhelmed with various comments from those who I’ve worked with and how they feel extremely comfortable and unpressurised recording in my studio which has resulted in records being made that feel easy and fun to make with minimal revisions on final mixes. This seems to be the the common theme and it makes me very happy ❤️ That said with the current situation things are far from easy for a lot of people myself included. Working from home gives me the ability to provide a professional service for often over half the price some people pay simply because I don’t have to pay for my studio space, I can pass that saving down to you and help you pay for other things like video or PR etc.. I’m working on an album at the moment but have space from Feb onwards. So if you want to make massive sounding professional records for a fraction of the price of a commercial studio hit me up and let’s make some records in 2023 👊

Happy New Year to you all 🎉🍾🍻

Brand new track from my buddies Love Malison. Always an absolute pleasure recording these guys and experimenting with rather edgy lively organic sounds. Recorded Mixed and Mastered right here by myself Russell Plowman 🤘links in comments 🤘

Eyes On Hold is our new single & it’s out today on all platforms. It’s about that difficulty to see yourself how others do, you could interpret it on a deeper level if you wanted, but I was writing from a truly physical perspective - what do I actually look like right now? I weight fluctuate a fair bit, & being entirely petrified of weighing scales, it’s not easy to gauge where I’m at on a purely objective level based on looking in the mirror or whacking out the selfie camera for a glance at the jawline (or lack thereof). It’s usually when I see one too many very unflattering photos at a wedding or a gig or something that I realise I’ve let things go a bit, & that it’s time for one of my bloody awful cleanses. This song was written during one of those times. So this one goes out to anyone who struggles a bit with their own body image for whatever reason, hope you enjoy,

Another busy one in the studio this weekend. It’s been a good year with lots of things I’ve been a part being and due to be released! However I have some availability in November onwards and looking to get some dates filled up. I know it’s tough times for a lot of folk so I could be willing to do some super deals particularly for straight up rock/punk bands. So if you looking to record and wanna get a massive professional sound please get in contact 🙂
