Glockenspiel has been our topic of recording in the last week. Yes we are recording again for what you may ask?… we don’t know ourselves haha we just record because we love to. Maybe another release in the near future. Anyway we discovered a cleaner way to record the glockenspiel and we are stoked about how it sounds. Stay tuned and you’ll hear the glorious sounds of the glockenspiel soon… Here’s a picture of Sam ripping on the glock, until the next time.  andre

Step Twelve performing their song Lost. The concept behind this video was the experience of a family picture we’ve no doubt all been apart of where the photographer insists on adjusting and re-adjusting everyone in the shot, trying in vain to achieve the perfect shot, until finally the family gets fed up and mutinies, deciding to accept a significantly less picturesque photograph to remember the occasion by. 

Enjoy,

Stay tuned for this! northropjames: In the fall my good friends Andre and Sam (check them out @ step-twelve.com) stopped in Winnipeg for a couple days during their Canadian tour. I wanted to do something special for them so I did some brainstorming with them along with my fiance Amy and came up with a kind of concert/filming session concept. We borrowed my uncles mini-van, my parents civic, my sisters friends car, and my jeep and picked up as many people as we could, to come to my house and be improv actors. With the help of Coby Friesen producing, Matt Veith and Tyler Voth filming, and 40 other actors, it turned out to be a great night. Be sure to check it out the footage. Finishing up the final edit now.  Northrop James 

Stay tuned for this!

I bought this sweet Ibanez Roadster 1982 bass on craigslist a while back but I wasn’t stoked on the options of the sounds I was getting with the precision pickups. So I got it converted to a jazz bass with Geddy Lee Fender pickups. Its sounds amazing and I have all the options as my current Fender Jazz bass. Stoked to record with it soon.

Other Lives

This is a little taste of what we got to see last friday live at the Media Club in Vancouver. This band is incredible so stoked I was able to see this show. These guys are going to blow up big time. 

JBM opened for Other Lives last Friday night at the Media club and his show was glorious. I’ve seen him before and it was nice to see him live again, thanks for the inspiration
