The Weeks Shinanigans!!!

Well.....
Myself and Ben have been working mega, mega hard on getting the trailer finished for our new feature The Origins Of Project 8105!
It has taken myself and Ben between 5 and 10 hours to complete it, its amazing all the hardwork and time we put in for a trailer that runs just under 2 minutes hehe!
Thank god we had all the artwork provided by Kev, we are very pleased with the result and it gives us a clear idea of what these episodes will look like.
You can watch the trailer here http://www.youtube.com/7uckytv
Also episode 3 of The Mystique Of "7" is now up so you can go and watch that there too!


And on that note (anything between A and G# hehe) we will be seeing you soon!

Peace and Love as always ;-)

The Mystique Of "7" & The Origins Of Project 8105

Just updating you all on a few things (Whoever you are hehe)

The 2nd episode of The Mystique Of "7" is up at our youtube channel www.Youtube.com/7uckytv
In this episode I talk about the 2nd track "Its My Desire" which Features on my instrumental guitar album entitled "7"
Its really strange because ive never felt comfortable hearing my own voice or watching myself on video hehe, i dont know what it is theres just a real cringe factor for me when it comes to doing things like this.
Serves me right for choosing the career path i have chosen i guess haha.
Maybe in time i will get more comfortable with it and except it without screwing my face up whilst watching myself on video or hearing myself on record haha, maybe someday i will have that "Jack Black" attitude where i can just vibe with my inner stupidity lol!
Anyway.... so the 2nd episode is up and you can go and watch it right now
(or after youve read the rest of my wafflings first hehe)

As always please pay a visit to the website at www.LuckySinghOnline.com
There you will find all the information about all 3 of my debut albums

"7" which is my first real introduction into Instrumental Guitar Music

Tokyo Rules which is a vocal oriented, straight up, rock/pop album

Project 8105 which is a concept album crossing many different genres, with a comic book style booklet and many elements of movie sparkle thrown in for good measure hehe.

Myself and Ben have been working hard on editing the next video feature which will be exclusive to our youtube channel entitled "The Origins Of Project 8105"
The coming soon trailer is a days worth of editing itself, we wanted to (as always) try and make the next thing we produce better than the last.
All though that is the case when we come to producing something new, The Origins Of Project 8105 is a completely different format anyway so it will stand out from many other features without having to strive for a certain uniqueness!

Peace & Luv as always,

"The Origins Of Project 8105"

Just wanted to update this blog 'thingymajig' today to whoever maybe reading, i can see this becoming an addictive blogspot since i only blogged for the first time yesterday hehe!
Just wanted to fill you in on our progress with concerns to our newest video feature entitled "The Origins Of Project 8105", all the details about the feature are in my previous blog.
Yesterday myself Ben & Kevin set out to film the feature, originally we planned to film the whole feature in my lounge but because we have been blessed with some beautiful snowy weather recently (albeit very cold too hehe) we decided to film half of the feature outside in a few various locations in and around the area where i live.
Its rare that the 3 of us get to spend time together these days but its always a pleasure hehe, a 1 hour feature takes us a whole day because we spend the other 6-7 hours joking about or just talking lol! Not to worry though hehe, we managed to film everything and we had so much to talk about with regards to the album "Project 8105" that i think we have given Ben a mammoth task when it comes to editing down this mother of a feature to respectable episode lengths!
We are looking to upgrade to a much better quality camera though since the one we are using has difficulty adjusting to some of the different areas of light outside, i know... i probably wouldnt be complaining about the technology if it was like 10-20 years ago haha!
Anyway...... today i go out to teach my fellow guitar students and when i finish this evening i will get together with Ben to dome some editing for both this and the "7" feature! (going to be interesting trying to size this one down with all the waffling that went on whilst filming hehe)

See ya soon folks ;-)

Happy New Year Peeps!
I wanted to get up and blog wishing everyone all the best for 2010, after all the drunken celebrations and partying hard (well for those of you that drink alcohol that is, just soft drinks for me haha) this is a great time to reflect but also the perfect time to plan any new starts in whatever walk of life.
Make the most of every minute of everyday that's my motto ;-)

I also wanted to say a huge thank you to those of you who have purchased copies of the albums both in mp3 and CD format, myself, Ben & Kevin have really enjoyed working together whilst producing all 3 albums, they have to be 3 of the most monumental musical chapters of our lives so far! There is no better feeling for us than having people like you show your interest, bringing us great comments and feedback about what you like about our music. YOU ALL ROCK!!

I have to thank Kevin and Ben for all of their hard work, to have the music i have written be put into the hands of 2 very creative people such as Ben & Kevin is a blessing any artist would wish for.

Ok that's enough sucking up i think ha' so what's install for 2010 i hear you cry?

Well to start off The Mystique Of "7" has kicked off!

That's right folks episode 1 "Memory Man" is available to watch at 7uckytv (our youtube channel) the feature runs weekly and in each episode i discuss each song from my instrumental debut album "7".
Not only that but we will be making some of the mp3's available for free download, plus there will be other treats for those of you who already have the CD's. Many of the special downloadable freebies will be exclusive to all of our mailing list members.

There had been many uploads at 7uckytv in 2009, myself and ben have been working up some new cover versions to continue from my recent versions of 2 classic Steve Vai songs and of course the original "The Curse Of Castle Dragon" cover version performed by myself and Ben on Bass Guitar.
We wanted to ask if any of you had any suggestions for a Video cover version that you would like us to attempt, it could be anything from a classic instrumental track to a Pop song that you feel we could rearrange with a more "Pseudo Rock" edge to it haha....
Get back to us on it folks, be sure to subscribe and add us to youtube, facebook, twitter, and use the standard forms of web posting and let us know your ideas, all of the links to our social networking sites are available from http://www.luckysinghonline.com/.

"The Origins Of Project 8105"

The origins of Project 8105 is another video blog style feature which myself and Kevin are working on at the moment, this album was such a huge project and i really wanted to make sure that everyone had more of an insight into what were sometimes very grueling moments for myself and Kev just trying to get this project off the ground! Of course also to let you know of what was amazing for the most part, i don't want to sound like it was a chore because it wasn't haha!
Project 8105 stands alone both on a musical and conceptual level, every aspect of this album from the music right the way through to the artwork was so involved, the goal is that this video feature will give you all in depth access to some of the deeper subject "Grey Matter" haha!

"I Want To Go To Japan"

Well since we are doing video features for both "7" & Project 8105 it seems only fair that we pay tribute to album no3 haha!
"Tokyo Rules" again is a different project all together, the stories within each song and the links between certain songs were never meant to be in a conceptual context but it just so happened to pan out that way.
"I Want To Go To Japan" will be a feature where each episode will cover the clusters of songs belonging to each concept group, the video format will probably be a little text explaining the group of songs then a video version of one song from that specific group performed by myself and Ben.
Ben will also be looking to film a little blog feature to let you in on some of the recording secrets, he can be a shy guy you know so be gentle with him hehe. We may actually incorporate Bens videos into this feature, since he hasn't had an opportunity to film anything in this style, you might get to hear him speak or even sing who knows!

Hehe..

Well that's all to start this brand new year but i can guarantee you there will be a lot more to come from us in 2010, putting together a new band, recording a new album and of course getting out there to perform for all of you and hopefully meet many of you on the road ;-)
I want to thank you all again for your loyalty and support to us and the music, we want to continue to keep you all in the loop but also document a lot more so your along with us as much as possible for the journey.

Lets just hope me and the guys can make 2010 a great year in terms of launching bigger and better things, its a lot to live up to i know that much.

Happy New Year & Remember, make the most of every minute of every day peeps!

Lucky Singh ;-) xx
