We have been busy trying to fix the broken main computer in Wud Records Studio One for some time now and it has proved to be something of a challenge. However, some progress has been made and we are now into new territory so perhaps we will be able to make some beautiful things for you to listen to and enjoy soon.

We have added some social media links to our ‘links’ page. Flicker, Dark Company and The Bastard Sons of Dennis all have their own pages at Facebook which we have linked to, and Dark Company and The Bastard Sons of Dennis are both on Twitter. Again, we have included the links there in our ‘links’ page.

Some old friends and members of the Everyones have recently emerged from out of the vastness of the universe and may be able to give us some extra information on who the Everyones actually were.

There will be some more radio play coming up for our bands including a couple of special radio sessions. More news on this and some Bastard Sons of Dennis shows will follow soon.

Following their recent successful lunchtime performance at Exeter’s Fuel Cafe, The Bastard Sons of Dennis will be performing live at The Old Firehouse on Sunday 24th April, which is Easter Sunday. There will be many other splendid acts playing there that night and the evening will be finished off with some DJ action. Entry is free. More details will follow soon in our news section.

Dark Company’s first single from 1991 Killer has been included in a popular monthly compilation podcast and blog known as the Kaleidophonic Stroboscope. The playlist includes Aphex Twin, Thin Lizzy, Ozric Tentacles, Pulp and various other acts.

We have a link to the Kaleidophonic Stroboscope in our links page already and if you would like to listen to the whole compilation you can do so by clicking here.

Some of you have noticed the recent lack of sonic uploads from Wud Records. This is due to some ongoing technical difficulties in Studio One which are more serious and cunningly formed than the technical difficulties ongoing in Studio Two and Studio Three. We hope to be able to solve all of these difficulties at some point fairly soon and will keep you updated in our news posts. Meanwhile, here is some music. Uh, wait a minute, no music. Here’s the sound of a bloke with a beard and a horrible jumper doing some hammering.

We are pleased to let you all know about two forthcoming dates that The Bastard Sons of Dennis will be playing. Both will be completely free to enjoy and they will be much longer shows than their normal hit-and-run performances.

First up is The Fuel Cafe, North Street, Exeter on Saturday April 2nd 2011. This is a lunchtime performance which starts at 12:00 and goes on until around 2:30, so be there early! You can enjoy a beautiful lunch whilst the terrible twins aid your digestion with their special brand of humour and virtuosity.

The second show we can tell you about will be on Saturday May 28th 2011 at the NBI, St Davids Hill, Exeter, and is an evening performance. We recommend that you arrive in reasonable time as it is likely to be busy. The show will begin around 8:30pm and will go on until around midnight.

We may be able to broadcast these shows live and direct. There will be further news on this topic soon. If no live broadcast is possible, we hope to be able to bring you some video and audio footage soon after the event.

In an effort to design the cover art to some of the unfinished and progressing Dark Company albums, we have found and uploaded an old batch of Pete’s artwork along with some pictures that he has created recently. You can see the latest additions to Pete’s gallery by clicking here.
