Original Album update - to the Colorful Community.


Hello everybody,

Right now, we are working hard on our original CD even as we find time to reply mails and what-nots in between. Till now, we've finished writing over half the songs in the album. It's been a long process, over a year since we started writing the songs for this album - we have to juggle busking and gigs with learning and expanding our repertoire in between. We also spend a lot of time - in fact most of our days in contemplation - as we need plenty of time to meditate on our being and our words before we commit them to lyrics.

Please be patient with us. We promise that if you like the essence of our performance and our unique selection of hand-picked covers, you will love the original work that we're concocting right now! At the moment, we're not only finishing up with writing out the rest of our songs... we're also studying hard and doing lots of research, to source out and learn to use more up-to-date recording/arrangement programs to bring you the best quality sound possible. So please bear with us.

Thanks...
A special hello to Jackie Whyte, Simon Santoso and John Simpson. Thanks for your sweet sweet notes and for taking the time to send us your appreciations.

Bob Airol... we haven't got a copy of 'Run' recorded... but we will be posting a video of Jason Mraz's 'I'm yours' (courtesy of Irianto) on youtube soon... we'll let you know when we do - It'll be soon!

Robert Hock, Suisse Marie... Thanks for the offers you guys! We're glad you're looking out for us - and Sanjeev Veloo & gt23i too. Keep up the amazing work you people! If anyone's looking(or know of anyone who's looking) for a photographer... do google for 'Robert Hock'. He's Melbourne based and his work is highly commendable.

Rachel Cain for looking after Mifty(nuestro perro - our dog) - you're the best! We'll write you regarding your wedding in Perth in the next day or so...:)

To Pedro Rosas & Gloria Sanchez... gracias por tu notas dulces. Thanks Pedro for the video! Your camera's capture is delightfully clear! and yes... ¡Taco con las salsas, por favor!

Peter Kuttner for his wonderful video response... thanks for sharing the beautiful 'ant & cricket' moment. For those of you who appreciates biodiversity do visit: http://www.youtube.com/user/PeterKuttner for some of Peter's wonderful video captures.

A shout out to Bianca Hatfield! :D Woo Hoo! ..umm, sorry about the gig cancellation back in march. We hope we didn't spoil your plans for the evening.

Oh! And Mardi a.k.a. heatherhurricane for your eloquent compliment on youtube. Your feedback serves as dynamite fuel and is revitalizing to our labor of love.

Last but not least, we're so sorry about not being able to share the mp3 with those of you who requested for it. We weren't aware of the full extent of the copyright restrictions. Anyways, we're glad you like our acoustic version of Sway. Like we mentioned previously, we will promise to work hard at our original album so that we can share a small piece of our work with you soon.

A copy of this update is also posted on our blogspot. If you would like to get to know us a little more, go to: www.colorfulblac.blogspot.com

Okiez... that's all from us for now. We love you all. Pray for the bags under our eyes... hee!
