Over the last couple of months we’ve been busy with a number of music to picture commissions. Have just completed the music for two videos for Freixenet, an International ad for ‘Flic N Lic’ candy and a series of traditional Spanish childrens songs for a DVD project.
Have been working with Jordi Cubino at Auhra studios, Barcelona on some new songs for Sony Music that include singing the main vocals on a track for Filmax’s ‘Donkey Hote’ and backup vocals on several other Sony songs.
We’ve been tracking guitars and vocals after a week recording at Auhra studios with Mauri Tonelli engineering. The studio band includes Joan Vinyals, Cris Fontecilla, Gaby Katz, with a rythm section comprising Roger Blavia and Joe Lewis. Really pleased with the results so far so thank you to all of you.
In addition to the recordings above have just completed narrating an hour long documentary co produced by TV3 and AVVIDEO Spain titled ‘L’altre Barcelona. (The other Barcelona) and a piece for the Miró Foundation in Barcelona.
Have begun recording with producer Jordi Cubino for the soundtrack to the animated movie ‘Donkey Hote’ due for release at Christmas 2007. The first track was a Pat Benatar cover ‘Hit Me With Your Best Shot’ for the movie’s trailer sung by Tessa from Spain´s Operacion Triumfo (Spain’s version of the X factor)and there are more songs on the way. I’m doing some singing/ lyric adaptation and assisting Jordi in the studio too.
Enjoyed dubbing a little cameo as the mad professor in ‘A Xmas Tale’ for Filmax’s directed by Jim Phillips and a few of the supporting characters in a new ‘Scruff’ (Rovello) animated feature for D’Ocon films directed by Nick Chapman.
Have just adapted a new track for Sony Music featuring Spanish Singer Gisela and written by hit producer Jordi Cubino. The recording went really well at Auhra studios in Barcelona with Mauri Tonelli engineering. A very very catchy song sung by a great Singer- I think it’s going to do well!!Jordi’s recent compositions include the Worldcup theme sung by Toni Braxton and IL Divo and David Bisbal’s ‘Corazon Latino’.
Just before Christmas we dubbed the first 4 episodes of cartoon series ‘Little King Macius’ directed by Josh Zamrycki at Sonilab Studios and produced by French Animation company Ellipsanime (part of the Universal group) – The series follows the adventures of the little king and his pals who try to foil the plans of the evil General (my character). Had a great time in the studio and really looking forward to the next 22 episodes….Here are a couple of stills from the series including my character.
Have just sung the solo voice on the new Playstation 3 ad ‘Formula 1’ featuring Fernando Alonso. The title of the Ad is ‘Shadow’ and it’ll be on air soon. Had a great time recording it with Xupi and Dani from BSO studios.When I get a copy will post it online.
Following a series of promotional recordings over the last few years, I’ve been asked by World Games Vice- President Roland Hilfiker to be further involved voicing the World Games audiovisual/TV productions both in the run up to, and during the actual games themselves in Kaohsiung City in Chinese Taipei (Taiwan)in 2009. Under the umbrella of the International Olymic committee, the games feature 30 + plus sports including Karate, Squash and Rugby and over 3000 athletes. Over 500,000 people attended last years games in Duisburg Germany. I’m looking forward to the challenge!
