Some Good News! |
|
|
|
Just
wanted to let you know some good news...
Our debut album Concubine is now available from the leading Digital
stores now.
You can download the album from
iTunes stores worldwide, cool Indie
store
Tunetribe, and
Amazon amongst others. iTunes are
also selling 'One Design' as a ring tone, and furthermore, ringtones
of all the songs are available over at Groupietunes -
Click here to visit!
Customers of the mobile network 3, can also download some of the
Mooli tunes to their phones. The tunes available are 'One Design',
'Save You', 'Awaken', 'Underneath the Same Sun' and 'Easy'.
So far the most popular tunes to be downloaded from the album in the
UK, are...
1) Underneath the Same Sun
2) Time
3) San Francisco Rain
4) Reasons
It's been really heartening to see and hear some of the world's
biggest DJ's playing 'Wasted' over on Youtube, including Paul
Oakenfold, Erick Morillo, and Sandra Collins, in places like Pacha
New York, and Vision, Chicago, and so nice to hear the crowd singing
the lyrics in some of the clips. I've even seen girls quoting the
line... 'wasted but you can't even see. Still obsessing about your
dream and the way you look to even notice me" as a put down to guys
online. Mad!!
The latest on the track, is that no official release date has been
decided yet. But there should be a couple of new mixes done prior to
release. We will keep you posted, but the track should definitely be
coming out this summer.
Click here for some links on Youtube
We will shortly be putting up new acoustic versions of 'San
Francisco Rain' and 'Underneath the Same Sun'. We've done these
versions following a request from our French sub publisher. Expect
to find them up sometime in the next week or so on our
Myspace site.
Talking of which. Some kind, gentle soul, has managed to delete my
personal myspace account, so I have had to start all over again...
Charming!

Enjoy the rest of your week, and speak soon.

07/04/2008 CANCELLATIONS...
A MESSAGE FROM BEN |
|
|
|
Hello,
It is with it is with deep regret that I have to inform you that due
to unfortunate circumstances we will not be appearing live next week
at the Zebra Bar or the Scala.
It is gutting, that we have had to pull out.
It is especially a shame, considering that we had a long list of
influential people in the business coming down to the Scala, to see
us for the first time.
They included EMI, Joss Stone and KT Tunstall's people, Ms
Dynamite's former manager, Lucie Silvas and Liberty X management,
Mika and The Enemy agency etc etc.
So it's very disappointing to have to pull out of these shows, cos
we know how rare it is to get both genuine fans and industry people
together to watch an Indie band like ourselves.
Hopefully we'll be able to reschedule shows in London and Maidstone
soon.
I will be at the Zebra Bar on Wed, so if anyone wants a chat, do
come and say hello.
Zebra is a great venue in Maidstone, promoted by a lovely lady
called Sue, and the acts on next week include a solo performance by
Ben Jones, and a funky band called Under the thumb. I've not seen
Under the thumb, but Ben Jones, is very good!
I am having a well earned rest this weekend.
Have a fantastic time, whatever you get up to.
Ben :)x
PS. The deal with All around the world/ Universal for Wasted by My
Digital Enemy feat Mooli, has been signed, and we should know the
plans regarding remixes, promo period and release date fairly soon. |

current edition of the Kent on Sunday review magazine.

The article appears on page 5.
Film
It's looking likely that one of the songs from 'Concubine' is going
to be featured on a new British film. We don't want to say too much
about it at the moment, being slightly cagey sorts, but it's looking
good at the moment. Fingers crossed and all that!

It's a great way of spreading the word about new bands and
connecting with people who share the same taste in music etc.

Yes it is
"Easy"
Just wanted to let you know that our song 'Easy' is now the
Number 1 most downloaded song from Chris Coco's Electracoustic album
on Apple iTunes (UK).
Thank you very much indeed, if you are one of the people who
downloaded it, and made it the most popular song from this
Compilation. It means a lot to us! This is an excellent album, with
quite a few major label acts, and great tunes including the tune
you've no doubt been whistling along to from the Orange TV ads, so
to be outselling that is no small achievement for a little indie
outfit like outselves.
Easy is also now available for download from the excellent Tunetribe
website.

New on Myspace is the track Che Guevara' . This is a live acoustic

http://www.myspace.com/mooli
http://www.youtube.com/mooli. On a
side note , there is a guy on You tube, who seems obsessed about
Clea wearing a strap whilst playing her guitar, and has been writing
comments to that effect both on Mooli's myspace page and Youtube..
The mind boggles. |
