    Stereotonic was recently asked to design a few graphic tee’s for tuba soloist Øystein Baadsvik’s most celebrated composition, “FNUGG”.  If you’ve never had the pleasure of hearing this, be sure to click on the video in the sidebar.  Absolutely brilliant!  At least we here at Stereotonic think so.

    SoulTracks review of the Motor City Horn’s debut album Local Boys:

    Between their individual and collective schedules, The Motor City Horns have traveled all across the country playing just about every genre imaginable. Detroit-based musicians John Rutherford, Mark Byerly, Keith Kaminski and Bob Jensen each bring their unique strengths as sidemen and their remarkable knack for arranging horn parts at the drop of a dime. Those are good reasons why artists such as Bob Segar and Bruce Springstein’s saxophone sidekick Clarence Clemons have utilized MCH for their tours. That is why it also made sense for this versatile group to take charge of its own recording session.

    Local Boys demonstrates why MCH is not just any ordinary brass band.

    The amazing debut recording by the Spectrum Brass Quintet, Rhapsody, is on sale now. It begins shipping on the 16th. I have been listening to the tracks for about a month, and it is an amazing CD. The arrangements are unique–only brass, drums and piano—but so deep and rich. Working on this CD packaging was an honor for Bryan and me.
