ehy roger,
I finally finished to mix my album wow it took me ages...It is probably gonna be divided in two cds of ten songs each.
I put the side A of the vinyl (every night b4 goin to bed I pray the Supreme to send me somebody who's interested in issuing it as a vinyl)on myspace if you want to give it a listen...
also I am recording some fellow artists in my home studio and I have the idea of a label, 1st issue will be a 6 track ep from my old band Last Chance Motel, check em in my topfriends if you fancy, you wont regret it.
If you like the songs, send me your email and Ill send you the mp3s, no £ involved no worries, we are trying to keep it pure and keep it real.
Sharing our music with people is the best reward ever.

Much love
&
keep the faith

SUNHARBOUR 1st EP Launch 8th September, 2007 @ 93 FEET EAST
BANG! Records' very own first signing - the outrageously talented 16 piece musical collective Sunharbour including musicians that have played with artists such as The Good, The Bad and the Queen, Jamiroquoi and Gnarles Barkley. Their live performance, that has been likened to Zero 7, Air, Aim, Quanitc Soul Orchestra and Groove Armada, consists of 14 musicians, and 2 vocalists, including acoustic and electric guitar, keyboards, samplers, decks, drums, bass guitar, string quartet - cello, 2 violins, 1 viola, brass trio - sax, trumpet, trombone, percussion featuring a gong & the big bad double bass. Simply not to be missed.
If you would like to be our guest for this event please respond to info@productionlondon.com asap

"In the upstairs room of the Horse and Groom, I stood with others like lodgers.

But what made it hot? The weather was not... Ah, yes, it must've been Roger."

Fantastic stuff as always, sirs - despite the fact the venue was hotter than the moon.
