Studio corner. Still learning it all and pulled a few things that didn’t do it for me. Now working on my live set for first gig in August. News to follow.

HOW TO AMULETS with special guest AMULETS // live studio performance and rig rundown YouTube video by DivKid

Great film about how Amulets works. Anyone else that uses tapes I should have a look at?

Going through old tapes looking for interesting snippets - this one perfect for what I want. Gig recorded on a cheap cassette recorder with plenty of audience noises. Digitising agogo!

WANTED - Short audio messages remembering Barrow music scene 76-96.

I'm creating a new music using recordings of the Barrow music scene and want people talking about it. No long stories, just a few sentences about why it was special.

Send a message here, or email an mp3 to shaunblezard@gmail.com

We are a few tracks short for a proposed compilation for @meansmagazine.bsky.social vol 2.

This is NOT a formal call-out, we can't offer money. BUT if you have a track (new or old), that engages with power/politics/privilege in some way get in touch! We'll include track and write about u in mag.

A few local demos have been found. Next thing to do. Digitise them - plus a bunch of rehearsals and live recordings.

A big pile of audio cassettes piled untidily on a bed. All from the 1980s and 1990s.

Non archivists look away now. Looking for local band demos from 1980s to 90s. See what I find :-)

Yes. Much better than I pronounce it myself :-)

The Tier Garden - The Afrikaan (John Peel Show) - 1984 YouTube video by Webbie

I’m involved in a project about the music scene in Barrow 1977-95. I’m creating new work about that time.

I’m looking for recordings of music & gigs to create new tracks.

Drop line here/email info@shaunblezard.com - Digital preferred, but can get other stuff sorted.

youtu.be/iAkJ1V_y8IU?...

Will let you know ;-)

Thank you @phantomcircuit.bsky.social for the play - give this long-standing and excellent show a listen.
