In late December, Pito Costa, Carles Mateu and myself got together to compose and produce two TV ads for Planeta Agostini’s ‘Superheroes’ collection for our client the production company El Film Del Mundo . We had fun recording as always and the aprés session/ Christmas Paella at Cayo Largo in Badalona was spectacular!
Here are a couple of reviews for the Gig Joan, Cristo and myself played at ‘the Space’ in my hometown of Stroud. It was a sell out and wonderful to see so many friends and familiar faces- wouldn’t have missed it for the world. Having just been to the UK for Christmas I also dug up my very first review from the very same paper ‘The Stroud News and Journal’ which was probably around 1976/77!
Have just sung a version of the Police’s ‘Every Breath You Take’ for a TV and radio campaign for Spanish bank La Caixa. It was a BSO production by Chupi and Dani and as always it was great to work together. Chupi has also played Hammond, a great Hohner Funky Clav and Fender Rhodes on quite a few tracks of my new Album.
It’s great when a song written a while back gets a new lease of life(8 years back in this case!) . We’ve licensed the song for use in a TV campaign for the Generalitat of Catalonia. Originally recorded for WestOne a group we were working with in 1999. They scored a hit with another of our songs ‘let Me Into Your Heart’ Blanco y Negro records -subsequently remixed by Toni & Xasci Ten it went into the Spanish Chart.
New Audio guides for the Miró foundation and the Venecian art exhibition at Barcelona´s La Pedrera voiced by Alex and Sarah Davison.
I put some narrative voices for a really nicely made AV presentation for the inaugeration ceremony at the Sitges Film Festival.
Enjoyed working on these two documentaries. One on the tragic death of the Jewish Philosopher Walter Benjamin as he fled from Nazis. The film was co-produced by the Goethe Institut and the European Association for Jewish Culture. ‘Wings Over The Antarctic’- a Media Pro production follows the adventures of parachutists who have developed ‘wings’ and their world record breaking jump/flight.
Recent singing work has included the lead voice on TV ads for Blanc Pescador white wine (from Northern Spain) and Vino Barbadillo from Andalucia in the South and backing vocals for a Nescafe campaign.
Things are going well with the album. It’s a slow process but I think the results will be good. Currently tracking vocals /percussion. And recording the final touches from Joan Vinyals, Cris Fontecilla, Gaby, Joe and Roger. Cece Giannotti will hopefully be recording some Dobro too.
Dubbing seems to have hotted up over the last few months. Have been working with Nick Chapman and Josh Zamrycki at Sonilab on the two TV series and dubbed a Rat character and sung two songs including the closing theme to Filmax’s’Ratoncito Perez’ directed by Jim Philips. Also enjoyed dubbing the king in ‘Cristopher Tremendous’ animated feature at Audioprojects studios.
