Motorcycle Man

Morning everyone,

This is the next song i am promoting inbetween cleaning and gardening and finding a job.   Motorcycle Man is the next after Pirates in My Sink that i recorded a few months ago and then unbeknown to me, i got sent a remix of it by local musician, The Strummer Room Project. He used my live acoustic recording of the song for the basis of the remix, without single files, which is interested...but many people like it.
Since i got good feedback so far for my Halloween show trailer on Youtube as i used public Domain Footage, i thought i would do this for all my songs.  That being said, it takes time to trail though loads of films and trailers with no copyright.  What i have also done is contact this motorcyclist on Youtube, who has a lot of footage of motoring down highways on his bike. This is what i actually needed,  as most footage i come across either is not long enough, has website address splashed across them, even on Public Domain footage or the topic is not easy to find
So today i got permission from this Youtube User

I have started the video already with footage i have found and then i will see how much of a video of choice from Spacepod, which i can use. This will be sent to him to see what he thinks.

What i am also considering is if the user likes i can either put their footage against a remix of a song or the original acoustic....If i am using other peoples footage, i would rather give them a choice

Thanks for reading

The History of Record Shops

Image
Since I have been helping to promote local record shops Strummer Room Records and new Mac’s Music Store here in Banbury  (One way of being involved), It occurred to me that not much attention historically is being paid towards record shops.  As a former owner of record shop Demand  Records ( still dabble with online vinyl album sales)(I miss it like crazy), I thought I would focus on this.  I realised recently that my shop is a part of. Over the decades there have been independent and chain stores. Depends where you live. The starting point is Banbury, who knows where this may lead?  I have decided to make this journey broader.  I thought to myself I am bound to get asked at some point. At the moment this is a few blogs and the start of an ongoing series on Youtube. This may lead to a documentary at some point. But not getting too far ahead of myself.                                                      Picture of Strummer Room Recorfs Strummer Room Records ( 4 years walk in and online

Finally, i can now play vinyl records again on radio

Before the headlines, an update.... Co Presenter The radio variety show has always been able to evolve or move in various directions. Reason for the difficult task of finding a good name for the show In April 2015, i found a co presenters, Educational publisher and graphic designer, Darren Coles. We began messing about on radio, and wanted to come up with a duo name. For some reason, animals come into conversation and we ended up with, Dog and Crow. I am Dog and Darren is Crow. Partly the reason, for this is because, Darren, can do a wicked, Crow sound and i can do a Dog one Show HQ has moved again A place i have been waiting for over a year finally landed. My father knew of a couple who were to rent a house. I was in the position to move in, but heard nothing for long time. Then the chess pieces fell into place, hired a van to move the gear and we landed into new HQ, beginnig of November 2015 Improvements Darren has a technical mind. He has gear, has been in bands and can se

The travel guide of Fun For Louis, aka Louis Cole

Back in the day, when TV and traveling around the world to different places was kind of everywhere, it was really entertaining, This has all but gone from the main British channels. One TV series that stood out was " The Rough Guide" taking you to the non tourist area's, well places where they allowed TV cameras That was the 1990s, now fast forward to 2014/2015 Youtube is now the place for many people to watch, essentially, TV. At the start, Youtube is not what it is now. However, more people are vlogging ( Short for video blog), comedy and documentaries. I am not a fan of collecting loads of people on Youtube and subscribing, as there is a lot of channels with the same stuff. You have, revewers, technology and gaming, which does get tedious after a while. It takes something good to grab my attention and one such person, from Surrey, England. is Louis Cole Although his, Youtube, life didn't start out daily vlogging or travelling, it is now the content he
