I heard the Twitch sold 76 albums at their gig last night! Awesome going guys and gal! :-) Mark says he had fun doing the lights, coz he knew all the twitch songs on the album off by heart, and was able to do the lighting in sync with that.
I added a couple more demo songs to my myspace yesturday.
Am into mixing Rock songs, but I seem to write only soppy pop songs. haha, go figure! :-)
you can listen to one of the 11 songs on the album and watch a short vid on their myspace page:

opps, forgot that details :-) Thanks for pointing that out :-)
I live in Auckland.
Okay, I've got a drummer, so all I need to complete the "possible band" lineup is a guitarist and a bassist... and possibly a keyboardist. Some demos of my songs are available to be listened to on myspace... http://www.myspace.com/dragonorchid
my stuff is fairly pop Rock, so if you liked the 80s, ballads, Santana, corrs first album, Sade... you'll hopefully like it (not that I can sing like her,.. man, I wish!... I'm more of a hobby songwriter than a singer... but I might as well give it a go). I'm really looking for pro musicians looking for something fun to do in their spare time. being able to improvise and play by ear would be beneficial as I'll have demos that you can listen to, but I'm open to some improvisational input/jamming jazz/funk styles too... but I can also give you chord sheets if you need/want them too. If we all gel, I'll probably write songs with you too...
If you are interested you can contact me through myspace or through The Rock Factory link below:
just watched them, great work Blink. When is the next tour? Mark and I enjoy our trips to hamiltown ;-)
I agree, have seen them live a couple of times, and they are awesome...
hehe, AWESOME is a favorite word of mine. AWESOME AWESOME AWESOME :-)
Thank you guys, I LUV Miscreant :-) people should definately check out their single, it sounds mean.
Thanks Jackie! :-) I sometime wish I had some more time... like a time warp "pause" button/ universal Remote control like funny guy adam sandler movie, so I could spend sometime on my own stuff :-D... "One Day I'll find a Way"... yes, muhahaha! :-P
opps Sorry Robyn, I was just trying to fit all the band names in the title.
Admin, feel free to delete it.
I have just put some new demos on my myspace profile. If you have some spare time, please give them a listen... I hope you like them :-)

Cheap Quality Recording Available esp. for Indy Bands
Check under "Our Services".
Four studios to choose from for different budgets/needs
Four different Engineers to choose from.
you can listen to recent recordings under "Recent Projects"
Bands we have recorded include:
Siren Junkies, Tahuna Breaks, Killt, The Glory Sea, Amperzahn, These Four Walls, The Mellatones, Alpine Fault, Ishtar, The Twitch Plus MANY MORE.
People we have worked with have described us as "Just what NZ Music/Bands Needs - a place we can afford and that understands what we require because all the engineers that work there are in bands too".
We are currently booking weekends into mid June, but if you can record during weekdays and normal working hours (one word...sickie! ;-)), we can possibly record you earlier.
My partner wants to change the pricing schedule, so the current prices are in jeapardy of being changed... soif you want to record, it might be good to book earlier rather than later.
Two experienced Audio Engineers looking for a place where they can set up and use their mixing/recording setups/equipment.
We want to give our flatmates a break, and also because we are a couple and live in the same place, both of us cannot mix outloud at the same time in the same room and this issue effects our productivity!
Can you help? Perhaps you are an owner of a warehouse/factory/office building that has additional space that is not being utilised...
One of us has a masters in Acoustics, so we can easily sound proof the room(s).
If you can help, please contact Michelle from the website below...
Upraw, Fuelset, Never and Cervesa...

woohoo! Iw illbe our first gig with our new drummer :-)
We'd love you'll to come along!
