Fabian gets interviewed about Fancy Lad Music

2010-11-27T16:52:00.000-08:00

I recently had the opportunity to sit down with Lauren Roberts of Green Light Go Publicity, a music PR firm here in Detroit, to discuss the past, present and future of Fancy Lad Music. Included in their blog is a section called The Other Side, which examines (what else?) people on the "other side" of the music industry aside from musicians and their albums. It was refreshing to try and convey in an interview setting exactly what we do, and I am geeked that someone cared enough to want to know more and share that with her readers. Check out the interview here!

FutureMidwest '10

2010-04-18T14:51:00.000-07:00

FutureMidwest, the region's largest two-day technology and knowledge conference recently contacted FLM about doing some music for their event. It was a great project to work on because the creative team allowed us to stretch our legs and cover some really different styles.

I must add that the last line of the outline we received was "and the crowd goes f***ing wild", and boy did they.

And without further adieu, the video:

Sea of Japan appears on MTV's 16 and Pregnant

2010-03-08T14:30:00.000-08:00

Perhaps not the way we envisioned being on MTV when we were growing up, but cool nonetheless: 3 songs from Fancy Lad band of composers Sea of Japan were featured on MTV's teen pregnancy show 16 and Pregnant. Keep an eye out for reruns of Nikkole's episode from season 2 to hear "Maxine," "All You Ever Need," and "Escape" on the small screen, or view the episode here!

On Tuesday we are hitting the ole' dusty trail for a quick jog with one of my personal faves, Longwave. They sort of disappeared for a few years but have recently reemerged with Secrets are Sinister, an absolutely massive sounding album. I've been a fan for years, so I'm particularly excited that we get to play some shows with them. If you live in one of the following cities, come say hi:

Dec 16, 2008 7th St Entry Minneapolis, Minnesota

Jem Makes a Record Called "Down to Earth"

2008-12-10T13:11:00.001-08:00

Avoiding all obvious puns regarding the title, I just wanted to share some news about a little record I had the pleasure of working on last year. "Down to Earth" features four tracks that I engineered with Jem and long-time Eminem collaborator Jeff Bass. It was an awesome record to work on and they gave me a long leash to experiment with some really interesting sounds and textures. Check out one of the tracks we did called "Crazy" below. - Brian
