Producer with studio wanted/Album update

12 January 2011

Hey Folks,

I’m looking for a like minded producer with a studio capable of recording drums to get involved with me on the album I’m currently working on. I’ve pretty much done all I can here at home and have the nuts and bolts of 10 tracks down and now I need somewhere to lay down the drums (which will also require a drummer) and do the final post production and mixing etc and someone to help me do it. I’m working on a zero budget so there’s no payment to speak of but I am of course offering a piece of the pie as it were and once released the right candidate will be rewarded via an agreed cut of any profit made by the recordings. If you are that person please get in touch via this website or facebook or myspace and I’ll send you some tracks so you can decide if you believe in the value of my project and we’ll discuss further. As some of you know I’m moving to Perth Australia in just 2 months so If this is gonna happen in the UK it needs to be quick otherwise my search will have to continue down under.

Thanks

Kris Buckle

Back in a few months!

28 November 2010

I’m disappearing for a while folks. Entering deeply into a zone. A zone where phones don’t ring, doors and curtains remain closed and beards get very long. This is me hanging a ‘do not disturb’ or ‘back in a few months’ type note on my imaginary internet door. I’ll see you on the other side when the album is finished. …

Here’s some sounds in my absence:

Podcast break! Album announcement.

15 November 2010

Hey,

So I mentioned this the other day on twitter but for those who didn’t catch it here’s an update. I’m on tour at the moment playing some guitar in Liam Baileys band. I’ve been listening to my demo’s on the bus and have decided that instead of releasing and Ep I’m going to put an album together as I think I have enough material to do it and the demo’s sound massive so I’m really excited. I’ve got roughly 12 tracks I need to record and have made the decision to give the podcast a rest for a bit in order to free up the time to record the album. As you know I’m unsigned so I’ll be putting it together in my spare time and need to free up as much as possible. I personally can’t wait to hear the finished product.

Also, I’m well into the idea of printing the finished album up on vinyl. I love that stuff and know that there’s a lot of folks out there like myself. The only thing is that most companies I’ve found that press vinyl have a minimum order. I’m not sure how many I’d sell so I’d like to get an idea of how many folks out there would like a copy of my next album on vinyl? I think the best thing to do also would be to give a copy of mp3’s or wave files away free with every copy sold so you’d still be able to stick it on your mp3 player or burn a CD but have the luxury of a lovely 12″ record with artwork in full. Sounds good to me.

Anyone who’d like to buy a vinyl copy of my next release leave a comment here on my website so I can get an idea of the figures.

Here’s that taster demo again:

Thanks muchly
