Alright so we’ve been posting some Russe 2010 songs lately, 4 of 5, however that 5th one won’t be arriving any time soon. We finished the track and had it all ready to go for the bus but they decided to ignore all our attempts at contacting them so we could receive payment. Long story short, 2 weeks go by, we send them a legal notice for breach of oral contract and they feed us some bullshit about how the boss’s facebook and cell phone were “blocked” (which were the two methods we used to contact him) and that they didn’t manage their finances well and can’t afford to pay us for the song. We don’t want to get into a legal mess over it so we’re just going to hold onto it and hopefully make use of it for next year’s festival.
With the money we earned from the 4 busses that DID pay like good, honest Norwegians would (and we love them for that), Lars and I have been building our own bedroom studios. We’ll be sure to post about this in further detail when we’re finally done with them.
As far as new music goes that isn’t part of Russe, we have a few tracks in the works that we’re hoping to get on here fairly soon. We want to finally finish that DWM tune, the discoflex tune, and a new one we’ve been working on which is pretty close to being finished.
One last thing, if anyone has an Android phone, be sure to check out Spin It Up from Renu Studios as it uses two short tracks we created!
As some of you know we’ve been pretty busy with creating russebuss songs so here’s the first of five!

Download - 11.22 MBNot too long ago we posted this. Well Garden Party is up there again! I was going to just add it as a comment to our old post, but seeing as we don’t update the blog very often, a new post couldn’t hurt!

In other news, we recently entered a remix competition for Bjorn Muri – Yes Man and sent in our entry today. Deadline is Feb 14th and apparently they’ll know who the winner is the day after, but I’m not entirely sure that’s accurate. At any rate, we’ll definitely post if we win or not – if we don’t, the remix will be up for download.

PS. Post under has some (hopefully) upcoming treats for you
A couple months ago we posted the Pseudonym russebuss song, which was updated per request of the bus. They wanted it to be a little more crazy and sport their bus name. We weren’t able to post the song until now because we didn’t receive payment until now. Not sure why it took them so long, but I digress. We’ll start this post off with that.

To my knowledge we’re unable to update the youtube video audio without uploading a new vid altogether. I’d do the latter but I deleted the ae project. If anyone knows how to do this, do tell!
WIPs
If you’re wondering what we’ve been up to lately, we’ve been working on and off on several tracks, most of which we started and haven’t revisited in some time, but they’re still on the possible “to finish” list. Maybe you can help us prioritize which one to attempt to finish first, if any.
Here’s a few snippets (please ignore audio quality, these aren’t mastered yet):
Coldplay – Life in Technicolor Remix
What’s stopping us from finishing: We really want the a capella for this one, but we can’t find it anywhere! Also areas need to be improved instrumentally.

Blarsa – no name yet, wip name: dwm
What’s stopping us: Nothing really, original vocals perhaps, lack of motivation?

Collab with audioisstikz – no name yet – very early stage, wip name: et17
What’s stopping us: Lack of motivation / ideas

Collab with audioisstikz – no name yet – early stage, wip name: discoflex
What’s stopping us: We’re not very good lyricists, neither is audioisstikz. The vocals you hear in the wip are just test vocals, we ditched those lyrics already, if you can even understand them (which we’ve since cleaned up and vocals are now understandable).

There’s other tracks we’ve started but they’ll probably never make it out of Ableton Live or Cubase.
Other News:
We have a few more russe songs to do for the festival in May, so those might get posted when their time comes. Lars has been working on some solo projects in his spare time. I mixed & mastered one of his new ‘experiments’ tonight, might post that up here soon! Imagine dutch house, mixed with Lars’s style, and nintendo. That sums it up pretty well.
Our beloved friend Michael ‘Sextraordinaire’ Clements has created a new theme for us! Looks mighty fine I’d say. There might be a few minor bugs but he’s working them out as we find them. Thanks Michael, we wuv you babybabaay! lalalal
