We’ve moved office!!

Finally (it’s taken a while), we’ve moved on to pastures new. Gone are the purple walls, and the view of the Train Station, situated on top of an overpriced cafe. In its place is a farmhouse, with views of rolling fields. Can’t be bad.In case you’re wondering what I’m on about, I’m referring to the fact that we’ve moved our war cabinet/harem/office to a far more preferable setup that our previous property. We are now safely ensconsed in the bosom of the Carousel Sound Lab crews headquaters (not a pretty image that is now forming in my head….especially if you’ve seen Carousel’s Ummbop, and the Northern Monkey!)

Essentially, we’ve got an office at Carousel, as we all get on, have known each other for years, and work on similar stuff (oh yeah, they’ve got cable, and we can smoke…) - Our updated postal details are on our “contact us” page. Feel free to send us money, quality meats, expensive amplifiers, or size 9 Adidas (boxed). Thank You.

Carousel Sound Lab is a state of the art recording facility, set in the Bedfordshire countryside (about half and hour from London) - There’s rehearsal rooms, post-production suites, audio/visual facilities, you name it, they’ve got it. All fully staffed by the infamous Northern Monkey and his people. If you’re a band just starting out, looking for somewhere to make a noise, or if you’re more accomplished, and want some mastering or overdubs done….whatever, the chaps can take care of it (for a very reasonable price,as it goes!). Check out their website for more information on the full setup.

Official Blunt Beats office now up and running

It’s been a long time coming, but the family Blunt have finally decided they need more space. This isn’t due to our ever increasing waistlines over the Christmas period, but simply that the recording bunker at Blunt HQ can get very hectic when trying to do the paperwork!

Therefore, we’ve sharpened our act (slightly!), and have now moved into a spanking new office at the Hat Factory arts and media centre in Luton, Bedfordshire. From our new base, we’ll be working on our plans for total world domination, alongside national and international gigs, festivals etc

This office will also be the base for several of our personal projects including Agent M’s S.A.R.S (Serious and Real Sounds) music showcase, and the Erbalist’s media company, Blunt Films.
