SITE UPDATE 16/6/2010

Mute Here,

I'm sure that all of you have been waiting for news of the next steps for U!D!R. Well over the past couple of weeks I have been securing a few new artists for the label. Lets just say one is very different and one is similar, haha i'm giving nothing away!

Over the next few days I will be adding 2 new 'Band Bio' pages, these will provide details on the artists and thier type of music. There also should be uploads of both of these artists within a week.

In Other News, as our artists are such a tight community, I have decided that we should use every opportunity for you (the fans) to really get to know them, so I intend to ask the same 5 questions to each artist and post them.

Make Sure You Stick Around Guys, Because This Is A Very Exciting Time For The Label

Thats It....

The final GM release (for now) has been uploaded to the blog, and I would just like to take this time to thank the guys ar Genetic Misprints and Ragnarok Studios for thier input to the blog. Here are just a few statistics about thier achievement in the last year:

Genetic Misprints Have Produced:
8 Studio Albums
2 B-Sides Albums
3 EPs
2 Compilation Albums
3 Singles

The longest track is '18:01 Overture' at 18:01 and the shortest is 'Peter' at 5 seconds.
That makes up 19 releases in 10 months, just under two a month.
Producing in total 282 songs (wasting 11 hours,, 34 minutes and 24 seconds of shitty songs on a guitar)

To date the most popular album (in downloads) is Viva La Cheese which has reached a staggering 4359 downloads.
And the entire Genetic Misprints back catalogue has had over 15,000 downloads.

For a band who started out just by messing around with recording software in the chrismas break from college, its isn't half bad. They have allwed this blog to flourish and become what I always wanted; a potal for unsigned bands, who don't care about the money, to spread thier music, no matter what genre or style.

To all of you avid readers out there, don't worry because I have a few surprises up my sleeve and all will be revealed in due course.

Good News, Bad News.

Mute Here,

Well Readers, Do You Want The Good News Or The Bad News First?


Ok, The Bad News.
Some of you may remember a few weeks ago I posted information about a new act signed to UP!DOWN!, D-Pad. He was due to have his debut EP released in a couple of weeks. UNFORTUNATELY due to close family bereavement, recording for the album has been subjected to a number of delays. He ensures me that a couple of track are finished, not quite mastered and that the rest of the EP will be finished in the forseeable future. I wish D-Pad all of the best in these upcoming months and I can't wait to hear his own brand of Nerdcore Hip-Hop.

And, The Good News (With A Little Bit Of Bad)

Some news about my main men of the moment 'Genetic Misprints'. As you may know it has been a while (a month for them) since we have heard much from the Genetic Misprints camp. This is due to the fact that the boys have been busy in the studio workinng on a few new releases to 'Tide The Fans Over' (More On That Later)

A Few days ago I recieved a list of upcoming releases from the duo. In order of release these are:

Variety pack EP: A follow-up to 'Vaule Pack' featuring more alternate versions of Genetic Misprints songs.

XV: Thier Latest Studio Album

Present Super Happy Funtime Sing-Along: A Collection Of Popular songs in instrumental form.


Theme Tune Single: The theme tune to the webseries, also includes clean version.


Date Rape and Selotape EP: A collection of old and new short skits and random songs.

The Best Of A Bad Bunch Volume 2: The second compilation of GM's greatest songs since Marmalederhosen.


I mentioned before 'Tide The Fans Over', this is because as of the end of september 2010, Genetic Misprints are taking a break, I have been ensured that this is definately not the end, but just time to persue projects outside of GM and outside of music. The reasons given by the band we're that: we need a break to be able to come back with lots of new ideas and its been exhausing but so much fun.

 Rob Gale (GM Vocalist) stated that;

"Most bands only produce 1 album in every couple of years, we have produced 19 to date within the space of one year, it has been so much fun but the tank is nearly empty for now, ideas are harder to come by and we need more time to be able to produce an amazing comeback album. This is 100% not the end. GM will live forever. We have had more success than we could have ever dreamed of and thank the fans for that."

He has also confirmed that GM will continue to produce videos and episoeds of thier webseries during the break. They are still a band just taking a break from recording.

All of those releases to be upped very soon.

MASSIVE UPDATE!!!

Muteantowl Here!!!! 

I have just got off of the phone with a brand new music act who want to use some of our tracks in thier upcoming album, in excange they agreed that the album will be uploaded here for all to download FREE! Rob mentioned the news in a previous post but I wanted to comfirm it is happening!!!

As of now all I know is that they want to us 'The Untitled' off 'Jelly Bean Custard...' but I offered them the use of any song, so all they have to do is ask.

THIS IS ALSO ANOTHER INVITATION TO ANY MUSICIANS/ REMIXERS WHO WOULD LIKE TO WORK WITH THE ENTIRE SMASHING GRANDPA DISCOGRAPHY- TO EMAIL ROB AT THESMELLOFCLOUDS@HOTMAIL.CO.UK. Obviously we will have to wait for this band to make thier choices but I am always looking for new takes on our existing catalogue.

Also even more excitingly last week at the Tom Thumb memorial service in Ottowa, Canada I met with Tom's widow Karen, who said that Tom Had a box full of items related to the band and that they may be of use in preservation of his memory or.... well i'm really not sure but I am excited to see as no-one collected Smashing Grandpa memorobelia and items like Tom.

The box is being dropped off by Karen at the weekend so I will be able to update you on some of the items I have recieved.

Muteantowl.

NB. Loving the new designs Rob! Check out his work at www.thesmellofclouds.com. He has done a shitload for the blog and for the band over the years- mostly unpaid, and we sure are greatful. Cheers.

Update & News

Hey all, Rob here (Not Muteantowl). I'm the guy that maintains the blog and has done all of the smashing grandpa artwork.

Riiiiiight, it might look a bit plain up there at the banner but I will sort that soon promise, I have been very very busy these past couple of months mainly starting up a new video production company, attending the Tom Thumb memorial service and working with new acts for the record.

I can announce now that within the next few weeks a couple of my friends from the UK will be finishing thier debut album, as of now is still untitled, and confusingly so is the act. I will keep you updated. I have currently only heard 3 songs off the album but it will contain 20+ tracks. There will also be a single up soon to promote the album. All I can say for certain is that this is completely diffferent from Smashing Grandpa.

Rob.
