Over the last year many of us have spent much more time in our green spaces and appreciating nature.
I spotted this wonderful card wallet and cd going through production, to share with you.
Depending on who you ask, live music will be back possibly after Easter or maybe the summer…but some say it could be the end of the year. As with so much at the moment future of live music is rather an uncertain entity but the coming months should start to bring a gradual unveiling of what is going to happen this year.
Even with a vaccine , it will also be a while before tours can go back to normal.
Newcastles Gosforth Park held a series of socially distanced gigs last summer but it is still unclear whether this is an option going forward for the near future.
While we know that some bands already have concerts scheduled for this year there are others already cancelling 2021 plans .

What we can say for sure is that we miss our live music and look forward to better times when we can all enjoy this again.
Over the last months in lockdown music has become a real solice to many.
It’s true that this has always been the case but the recent months where we have been more isolated as individuals and family groups, music has played a great role in providing company and stimulation to many people.
This article has some interesting facts and statistics and is well worth a read:

If you didnt have too much inspriation during lockdown you could just release a single or EP CD.
We are also still seeing lots of tutorial style DVD’s being duplicated to reach those customers you may have that are following a course via DVD or who can’t get to the classes you usually run.

Computers use an online database to display CD information, the most common one is known as Gracenote, a more detailed article on Gracenote can be found here Gracenote CD Database and CD-TEXT.
Tunes and Windows Media Player DO NOT read and CD-Text embedded on the actual CD, at all! This is common for all computer CD player software.
When the CD information is displayed on a computer, the info is coming from an online database. The database is usually Gracenote (the more common) or AllMusic.
The Gracenote database serves CD information to: iTunes, WinAmp, Quintessential Media Player, and Finder (Mac OS). The AllMusic database serves CD information to: Windows Media Player, Rhapsody, and Real Music Player.
Registration on these databases must be completed by you, the client, rather than us as no extra information is added to the CD for them to work.
You can find further information on how to submit your CD on the below links.

In the duplication process we have to use a hard copy disc master to work from, and in the past our customers have largley sent these to us by post…..and many still do!
We have however found it particularly helpful during the lockdown period that we are able to accept customers masters digitally and create a hard copy master to work from here. With queues at the Post Offices because of social distancing and less staff working it has been a really helpful.
We can create masters from your files if you have an electronic image in ISO, JMG, NRG, DDP or BIN /CUE or you can send us audio or video files which need authoring.
If you need any more information about this the FAQ’s on the website can help you or you can call us on 01702-530 354 and ask any questions.
