Jun Kung ( 恭碩良) - Help Is On The Way

At last!!! Jun's album came out yesterday (June 5th), I worked with Jun on this album in between both of our busy schedules. The album is called "Playback's A Bitch" and had 8 tracks of which I produced 7, co-wrote 7, and mixed 8.

The whole experience was great and Jun is a very talented multi-instrumentalist. He played 90% of the instruments on the album, Drums, bass, Guitair and piano.

The video is out now for the first single "Help Is On The Way", this is the only Cantonese song on the album as Jun wanted to an English language album this time round.

So head on down to HMV and grab a copy, or for those Digi heads amongst us it will be available in iTunes shortly.

"Fantasy" New Single by Bashy released 19th Sept

Hi everyone,

Sorry for the long delay between blogs, been very busy working day in and day out, doing long hours and developing bags so big you could use them for your sunday shop!

Anyway.....One of the projects I was working on during my time in Shawshank was a track called "Fantasy" by a UK artist called BASHY. I co-produced the track with a producer called Devon The DJ and I also mixed the record as well.

So typically, in this day and age of the thing we call "The Internet" or "The Net" or " The Web" or whatever you want to call it, I actually didn't even meet the artist or the other producer in person. Everything was done over the internet, uploading & downloading, zipping & unzipping (not what you think!!), yousendit & ftp, email & Skype... you name it we used it!

Sorry I have digressed... the whole point of this blog was to tell you that "Fantasy" is released this Sunday (19th Sept) and all the support, downloading (legally ;p), blogging, and general love and admiration would be greatly appreciated!

The music video is now available on Youtube.. check it out and let me know what you think!


And for those who become new fans, please buy. Also they have asked me to work on the rest of the album and we will probably do it in HK as he is touring with Gorillaz... so in the near future if you out in LKF or SoHo and see me with him.. please show some HK love!

Peace.. and I'm Audi... 500!

Race Wong - Fast Foward (Promo Trailer)

This is just a quick blog to update you on the progress of the Race Wong project I have been working on. We managed to capture lots of "Behind the scenes" footage and we have put together a small promo video to show what we have been up to. The video was shot by Arne Venema and Jona Chung Dha Lam and was edited by Arne.

Sorry guys, still no preview of the music yet. We have finished 4 songs and are making a few more, but over Chinese New Year we will working on Race's image and styling for her re-launch as an artist.

It has been fun (as you can see from the video) and the music sounds great, definitelty something different for Hong Kong.

But stay tuned cos after CNY we will be starting our promo campaign with a photoshoot, music video, and some performances!

Project Race!

You might have seen a few blogs around about the project I am working on with Race Wong, she has already done a few blogs about it. In between family, studio, and work from the UK I have finally managed to sit down and blog about the project.

Race and I met through AnD (Thanks Patrick!) and after quite a few meetings and emails decided to work on Race's solo album project together. This is not just any album, this is a complete relaunch/re-brand of Race as an artist. Spencer Douglass has been busy behind the scenes setting things up, and getting more people involved. Arne Venema has been filming the behind the scenes footage and interviews for us as well. Jennifer Chiang is working with Race on performance training and choreography.

We have been in the studio (Thanks to Jon Lee @ ThisMusicStudio) for 3 weeks now and have some very exciting and fresh songs, I encouraged Race to write the songs with me, and with the help of a Cantonese lyricist (Chan Wing Him) we are made some very very good music!

Let me re-iterate, this is not like any other HK album you have heard. We have had a few AnD people stop by the studio to say hi and listen to the songs (Patrick Lee, Marsha Yuan, Jun Kung, Robin Chi, Desmond So, plus a few more coming in the next few weeks) and they all agreed it was something very different, but still very exciting and commercial for the HK music scene.

So below are some pics from some of the sessions. You will see that there are quite a few AnD artists involved in this project in different ways. This is a true AnD collaborative project and I will be updating more and more as the project takes shape. There will also be video footage and interviews soon... so stay tuned and any support from all you AnDer's is greatly appreciated!
