What is the worlds dumBEST idea ever? Well, sit tight real quick and we will tell you in good time. First, let's bring you up to speed about what's shaking in this bacon.<br />
<br />
We recently got uber lucky and were able to snag up a beautiful 16 track 1" tape machine! Ba-BOOOOM! We have also done a few sound re-inforcement projects to help make the live room ambience even more tasty to your earbuds. Add on top of that a few new compressors and reverbs as well as a new 16 track portable digital recorder for remote recording projects (more on this in a future post), and you might say we are up to our ears in awesome! However, with these upgrades comes a lot of maintenance and upkeep across the board, and to help off-set these new costs we are having to increase our rates ever so slightly. What exactly is "ever so slightly"? Well, in this case it means $35/hr and $350/day (day rate is set at 10+ hrs). <br />
<br />
However, that's where our dumBEST idea kicks in. We know that for some bands even $350/day can be grueling to come up with. When we started BLDGs, it was to help bands create AMAZING sounding records with pro-level gear on <strong>affordable budgets</strong>. So, to help ease the new rates in we came up with<br />
<br />
<strong><u>THE WORLD DUMBEST IDEA!!!</u></strong><br />
<br />
Starting today, Jan 1st, 2013 thru March 31st, 2013, we will be offering a special <u>2 for 1 day rate</u> to all bands who book time starting <strong>RIGHT NOW</strong>!! That's a serious amount of savings, and one that might come back to bite us in the ass... But we are willing to take an ass biting to help you make amazing records without the stress of time constraints. For you nerdier types, here's the same offer in a math equation: <br />
<br />
$350 x 2 / 2 + U = $$$saved!!! <br />
<br />
It doesn't just stop at 1 day, though. Book 2 days paid, and get an additional 2 days free! Thats 4 days of recording/mixing for $700! Keep adding paid days on and keep getting more days free. <br />
<br />
BOOK US FOR A MONTH AND GET A FREE MONTH!!! WHAT?!?!?!?! <br />
<br />
Think of how handy that will be when it comes to mixing. Really, think about it. Talk about zero stress, and tons of time to make sure everything is exactly how you want it.<br />
<br />
Since we had to increase our rates, we figured we'd help you save a bit of cash by giving you the 2nd day free! This super awesome deal only applies to the day rate. That means you <strong><u>CAN NOT</u></strong> book an hour and get a 2nd hour free. Sorry... It's gotta be the full day. <br />
<br />
But, with that said, think of what you can get done in 2 days! <br />
<br />
Day 1: record. Day 2: MIX! <br />
<br />
Think of the overdubs you can do with all that time! 5 part harmonies, horns, string sections, CHAMBER CHOIRS!!! The sky's the limit people!<br />
<br />
So, get on the horn with your band mates and get your beautiful butts in here!!!<br />
<br />
Oh, and happy new year:)Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07089415675360264570noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4533978176489737845.post-92184571482018525132012-11-21T10:05:00.000-08:002012-11-21T10:06:31.244-08:00Collect all 8!<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="color: yellow;">We have added 8 awesome posters to our <span style="color: lime;"><span style="background-color: lime;"><a href="http://bldgs.bandcamp.com/merch" target="_blank">bandcamp merch store</a></span></span> and we want you to have them all!

<span style="color: yellow;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><br /></span></span></span>
<span style="color: yellow;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">The time has come to pump up the prices. But not by that much. Tonight at midnight we will be raising the Live Series releases on<a href="https://dea.seattle.gov/self/Account/Logon/Logon.aspx" target="_blank"> our bandcamp page</a> from "pay what ya want" to $5. Why? Because we've been getting a lot of traffic, which we really appreciate, but the goal was to help local Seattle bands make some extra cash, and being that most of the downloads are coming in w/ a "0.00" in the price column, we don't really think that's all that fair to the awesome people in said bands.</span></span></span><br />
<span style="color: yellow;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><br /></span></span></span>
<span style="color: yellow;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">With all that in mind, we are giving you until midnight tonight to take advantage of this 'pay what ya want" fiasco that bit us in the ass so politely. After that, the $5 will be the minimum price you can pay. However! With all that in mind, if you want to pay more for the records, a $10 or more donation will get you not only the live recording in digital form but also a really cool poster from our collection for you to hang on your wall! Or music room, or beer drinking room, or bar, or kitchen, or car, or butt, or WHATEVER!!!</span></span></span><br />
<span style="color: yellow;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><br /></span></span></span>
<span style="color: yellow;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">A quick run down:</span></span></span><br />
<span style="color: yellow;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">$5 - digital download - all money after PayPal expenses goes directly back to band</span></span></span><br />
<span style="color: yellow;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">$10 - digital download & super awesome cool poster - $5 goes back to band</span></span></span><br />
<span style="color: yellow;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">anything more than $10 - digital download, super awesome cool poster, and our love and kisses - all money split evenly with bands</span></span></span><br />
<span style="color: yellow;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><br /></span></span></span>
<span style="color: yellow;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Now, that's kinda a awesome deal, yeah?</span></span></span>Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07089415675360264570noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4533978176489737845.post-23854446414421168522012-11-10T11:55:00.001-08:002012-11-10T11:57:00.793-08:00Just Added To radioBLDGs<span style="color: yellow; font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">We just added another amazing chunk of music to the radioBLDGs player!

If you haven't been to the <b><a href="http://bldgs.bandcamp.com/">bandcamp page</a></b> yet then we would like to strongly encourage you to go <a href="http://bldgs.bandcamp.com/">check it out</a> this week!</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">We've had a great deal of traffic over the last few months plus a good amount of downloads, and as you may or may not know, all the money generated from purchasing the live recordings goes directly back to the bands. The releases are set to "pay what you want" with the hopes that those who can, will put in an amount that is comfortable for their given budget. However, do to the high traffic count and the countless downloads with "$0.00" put in the amount window,</span> <span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">it defeats the purpose of actually being able to give back to the bands. So, what does this mean? </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Well, we have decided to go ahead and put a minimum amount of $5.00</span> <span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">for each of the live releases. We love that we are helping get bands we believe in out to a larger audience, and to watch them be shared with places as far away as the UK, Germany, and Spain is mind blowing to us. However, the purpose of the live releases was to help the bands generate more income for their talents, art, and hard work. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">We are also going to allow you to pay more for each release if you are of the mind to do so, and give you a bit of a reward for doing so. If you choose to pay $10.00 or more for any release on the BLDGs bandcamp you will also be mailed a very special BLDGs logo poster, or one of our many collage posters we have made over the last few months. Don't know about the posters already? Color me <span style="color: purple;">surprised!</span> We haven't actually mentioned them in official terms, until now, and we will have the posters up later today for you to click through. Why $10.00? For printing, packaging, & shipping fees, and also to make sure that each band still gets their 5 bones from the deal. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">You might be asking to yourself, "When is all this going to take place?" EXCELLENT QUESTION!!! The <b>live releases will remain "pay what you want" until 11:59pm, Sunday, Nov. 11th</b>. Starting<b> Monday, Nov. 12th all live releases will switch over to the $5.00 minimum</b> with the option to pay more if you can/want to. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Hopefully, you still love us, and if you have any thoughts or comments on our decision to make this change, please, feel free to let us know! <b> contactBLDGs@gmail.com</b> if you think you have an idea that can improve on ours we'd love to hear your suggestions. </span>Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07089415675360264570noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4533978176489737845.post-15136277264797515922012-10-30T15:09:00.000-07:002012-10-30T15:14:00.634-07:00Horror Express<div style="text-align: center;">

radioBLDGs is in full swing, and we are talking with a few different
people about having a variety of shows so you don't have to listen to the
same music over and over and over and over and... you get the point.
More on that later as details emerge. Right now, however, you can tune in and listen to live performances and records that have been either cut here in the studio or recorded from some of the best venues Seattle has to offer. Our main goal with the station is to showcase the talent of bands, both local to Seattle and beyond, in hopes of creating a space where you, the user, can come and find music you might have previously overlooked. So, copy the code and paste it into your music player URL finder. Usually this option can be found in the "File" section, but you might have to dig a bit... we are still trying to create a player for the website to make it easier to click and play. So please hang in there, it's coming. <br />

Telemesser is getting closer and closer to finishing up the recording of their new record and it's gonna be so MINT when it's all said and done. Also, Telemesser member, Ross Marshall, has big news as his other band, Onono's, will be releasing a cassingle on Trench Art Records! Congrats to both Ross and the band!!! We can't wait to get our grubby little mitts on it. <br />

<span style="font-size: large;">Today marks an epic milestone for BLDGs. Today we will be inviting in The Tough Shits to come and <a href="http://arcadecow.com/game/12617/Rampage.html" target="_blank">rampage</a> in our humble abode as the inaugural radioBLDGs live performance and interview. </span></div>
<div style="color: yellow; font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
<br /></div>
<div style="color: yellow; font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: large;">So who are the Tough Shits? That's a great question. We have no IDEA! However, we can tell you from listening to their Burger Records releases "Prick Up Your Ears", a collection of songs from 2007-2008, and their S/T release that these hombres are all about the music. For us, that's all we need to go off of. Oh, and they are some how involved w/ Pop Zeus. So, that will be something to delve deeper into. Plus a couple questions about life on the road.</span></div>
<div style="color: yellow; font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="color: yellow; font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">

<span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Since last we typed a bit of action has happened. So, buckle up because we have a lot to cover</span>.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Tellemesser, synth-punk gods, have started recording their new record, and based off of the rough tracks this is gonna be one monster Sci-Fi behemoth of punk carnage!</span> <span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">In case you aren't hip to the awesome jive that is Telemesser, this isn't the first time these amazing dudes have been around the block. With members from Coconut Coolouts, Strange Boys, The Intelligence and other amazing garage/party/punk/freak/banger bands these boys know how to freak your brain, and believe us... they are going to freak your brain.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">MTNs came by for about a week or so to do some mixing with Taylor Carroll at the helm</span> <span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">and we gotta say THIS RECORD IS GOING TO KILL!!! Look for it to come out on Trench Art Records.</span>.. <span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">we think:)</span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span>
<br />
<div style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: small;">You may or may not have heard that BLDGs recently hosted an awesome party for GGNZLA record's new line of cola, lovingly known as GGNZLAcola. Each flavor comes with a different download code of some super sick bands and we were so happy to be a part of it! As part of the festivities GGNZLA invited a few local degenerates to play their swag tunes at the studio. Bands included: Don't Talk To The Cops, Ziskis, Branden Daniel & The Chics, T.v. Coahran, Monarchies, Ubu Roi and L'atomium. Get the cola and the downloads here: <a href="http://ggnzla.bandcamp.com/" target="_blank">GGNZLA</a></span></div>
<div style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: small;">Speaking of L'atomium, we also have his (Luke Beetham of Seattle's Pony Time) set from the GGNZLAcola party up on the BLDGs bandcamp along with others! Others you ask? Well, recently we went on a little road trip down the west coast and we got a super sweet recording of LA based band Bodhi and they allowed us to put the set up for download as well. As if that wasn't enough we took a trek down Tacoma way and recorded a very beautiful, haunting even, performance by Circadies. We have a few more sets still pending from some SERIOUSLY BOOMING bands so keep your ear out for those when they get here. For now, follow this link to get the above mentioned set's in all their glory. Remember, every dollar you put towards these killer sets by these KILLER bands goes right back to the bands. KILLLLLLERRRRRRR!!! <a href="http://bldgs.bandcamp.com/" target="_blank">Get The Live Sets!</a></span></div>
<div style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: small;">In other BLDGs bandcamp news, fearless leader and kinda sorta the only person who does stuff around here (yeah maybe he's typing this and yeah, maybe he's currently typing in the 3rd person) has been releasing some solo works under his last name. Schroeder. So, you know, a little shameless self promotion. Or should I feel shamed... Who cares! Buy them ya NERDS!!! </span></div>
<div style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: small;">On to the radio front! We've been dinking with kinda playing a few hour sets here and there and, yes, we know we have been promising you a shit ton more than what we have delivered, but now it's time to put the pedal to the metal and rock this hog! What's that mean for you the listener? Well, how about live sets from bands from all around the country and interviews to boot? Yeah, that's right. We've already got a few lined up as well and you can be looking forward to those as soon as Oct 24th. Who could these first guests be? We'll let ya know very soon. It's kinda awesome:) We've also gotten tons of great records from a certain Fullerton based label who shares it's name with our fave food (and no, it's not pizza) and we will be cranking those records out VERY SOON!!!</span></div>
<div style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: small;">We thinks that might be it for now. Live recordings, MTNs, Telemesser, Radio, GGNZLAcola... Well, this is exactly why we need to stay on top of this here blog! If you've been by the studio and we didn't mention you above let us know! </span></div>
<div style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue",Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">On that note, you can now look forward to weekly updates from the big blue beautiful BLDGs! Until next time, stay sassy you FREAKS!!!</span></span>Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07089415675360264570noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4533978176489737845.post-69656656678657306302012-05-30T09:21:00.000-07:002012-05-30T09:21:36.020-07:00"Finish what you've started brother"Remember that time when Christian Slater was laying against the tree, injured both physically from being whipped on his back and emotionally from the pain of letting down Kevin Costner? Yeah, that's how heavy it's been around these parts lately!<br />
<br />
We've had a lot of amazing musicians through these hallowed hallways of late and there seems to be more upon the horizon! Two Loons For Tea have been in and out each week writing for their next record, BLDGs went off site and helped record drums for Wimps at their home base and got them in the studio to record guitars, bass, and vox! Mixing to come, so be on the look out for a new Wimps record soonish plus a tour!<br />
<br />
We've been heavily backed up on the Live! tracks and hopefully in the coming days will be able to get more of those up on the bandcamp and into your hands. We were lucky enough to be able to take a trip down the West Coast not to long ago and record some awesome bands like Bodhi, Wild Ones, Slumber Party, and L.A. Font just to name a few. So be on the looking out! Remember when you download these amazing live sets that all the money goes back to the bands so be generous with your Washingtons. A little bit goes a long way in this new cruel world.<br />
<br />
