Hello everyone, how have you been?

What have you been up to since we last spoke? We've been up to quite a lot in the last 2 months. We're working with some new artists, still gigging with Yasko and dubnine is still to and fro from Malta gicing his vocal masterclasses and even working on a possible eurovision song.

So who have we been working with:

Firstly XOVA - since dubnines stomping remix of their song 'Our Generation' we've had the whole band in the studio recording 2 of their live tracks 'Goodbye' and 'Whatever', both are sounding great so head over to their web page to check out what they're up to http://xovalive.com/.

Yelitza - a very talented singer/songwriter again from Birmingham dubnine has just finished remixing her song 'Happy', which you can hear here Happy Dubtransmissions Remix. There's more to come too so keep you ear to the web.

Kate Winbush - dubnine is producing up and coming star Kate working on a number of songs developing her writting, singing ability and sound. We look forward to posting some examples soon.

Yasko - still going strong gigging, writing and recording. They're just in the process of mixing next single 'Fire Within' and are in London on Thursday for another gig at the beautiful inSpiral Lounge, Camden.

Well i think that pretty much brings us up to date for now. Don't forget you can still buy dubnine's latest single 'Spin' from iTunes and our bandcamp page.

Hello everyone, how are we?

Its been a busy month since we last spoke, i shall try and summarise it for you.

Dubnine - has been busy mixing the judged cover tracks 'Chewing Gum' and 'Here for Dancing' and they're sounding great so go check out their myspace page Judged Cover for a listen yourself. Failing that we'll be playing the tracks on our rhubarbradio show this saturday at 12 so tune in and let us know what you think by tweeting us @dubtransmission.

On the 23rd of this month he will be heading back over to Malta to continue his vocal coaching which is going really well as you'll see from the videos and photos here Exotique Record Label.

As well as all of this dubnine is busy performing and writing with Yasko working towards the single release mentioned above. Visit www.yasko.co.uk for all gig listings and the latest news.

...and we've seen the almost finished version of 'Spin' music video and we can't wait to let you see it either, it's looking awesome. We'll try and add a sneak preview for you as a taster before the official release in May.

ID Studios - is still busy with dubnines mixes, yasko rehearsals and i spent a morning putting the finishing touches to 'Lindy's Bag'. Go check out her website www.lindysbag.net for details of the project and how you can get your copy.

We'd also like to welcome MLK our newest resident. He's a great talent and its great to hear his tunes banging out from other end of the studio. More info on him coming very soon.

I think thats everything for now, go check out all the links and let us know what you think by tweeting us. You can follow us here www.twitter.com/dubtransmission.

Til next time,

Enjoy the sun

A very good sunday morning to you all. What a beautiful day it is too. I'm going to keep this brief so you can get out and enjoy the sun to its fullest.

Dubnine - had a great time in Malta. He spent a very busy weekend training around 25 individuals during his vocal masterclasses including performance and breathing techniques. We're hoping to get copies of videos and photos from the weekend to post here so you get an idea of what its like.

ID Studio - i spent a very enjoyable 2 days recording german group Judged Cover who flew in from Leipzig in Germany to put vocals down on 4 tracks we've been working on for them. Expect to hear examples of their work in the next couple of weeks once they've been mixed. Once again thanks to Marcus and Chrissy for working so hard during our time in the studio, can't wait to get to the mix.

Spin - as you know dubnine's latest single is spin, which you can hear on the player above and also buy following the link up there. He's also been busy with Marc Bhatti of Birmingham City University filming the music video so expect to see stills and the final video soon.

Lastly apologies for those of you who have tuned into our rhubarbradio show for the last 2 weeks, you'll have noticed neither dubnine or i have been in. This is due to our hectic work schedules over the last 2 weeks but rest assured we'll be back next week so hope to see you then.

Til next time,

Enjoy the sun

Jon :-)
