The Making Of Africa

December 10, 2007

We were in the studio last week to record the vocals for two of our originals, Africa and Asylum. We shot some video and uploaded it so you could get a taste of what we’ve been up to and checkout the whole studio scene. The audio is not finished, it’s just a rough mix. We’ll be finishing the mixing in the coming months.

I kinda geeked out on the whole video thing. I found a little app that’s so easy. You load in your audio, video and jpgs, push a button and voila, you’ve got a nice, automatic video with transitions and a title and credits page. Of course, one can’t stop there! So I had to spend time looking for programs that had both this “automatic movie” feature AND the ability to edit every little thing.

I had to stop the obsession before it ran away with me (ie: the free trial period ran out). But then I found another app that changes video into flash so that I can put it directly on the urban fiction site. That was cool. Watch it here on myspace or on the UF site.

Enjoy.

Happy Holidays,

Jenn


The Urban Life

October 11, 2007

Howdy!

We’re in the studio these days working on some tasty new songs that you are sure to enjoy. We hope to have some samples up by the end of the month.  But you know how this goes, you tweek alittle here, you tweek alittle there, you get a new brilliant idea, you get a new song through the muse download line.

Or…you sit down to write a song and a book spills out.  Yes, it’s true. There’s a new book coming out from moi. More info to come.

We’re in a very creative phase and it’s much fun. You’re in for some sweet ear candy from Didier’s guitar, so hold on to your hats and stay tuned.  More to come about the new tunes, the new web site and yes, the book.  But…you must wait just alittle bit longer.

Anticipation….makes the heart grow fonder!

kisses,
