Epic26 E.P. Launch Party
Over the last few months we have been busy working with the guys in Epic26. Hopefully you have been following along, have caught them live and\or received some preview tracks from their new self titled E.P. Which, now complete will be released on Mon 8th June.
In celebration of the E.P. release we are hosting a launch party on Sat June 6th @ Edinburgh’s newest venue Electric Circus. We were down there earlier in the week and they have really made an amazing job of the refit (it used to be the club Massa) lots of personality in the decor, a great lighting rig, A.V. equipment I haven’t even seen in a venue before and most importantly a serious P.A. system!
Joining Epic26 on the night will be Edinburgh clubbing phenomena Tokyo Blu whose remix of Epic26′s “Sorry It Hurts” features on the E.P. Also featuring on the E.P. as a bonus is one of Tokyo Blu’s original tracks. Which is kind of a unusual thing to do but we feel that by introducing Epic26′s fans to Tokyo Blu’s music we are contributing to strengthening the music community in Edinburgh.
Everybody who buys a ticket to the launch party will receive a copy of Epic26′s new CD on the door. You can get your ticket at the advance price of £5 via the widget at the bottom of this post.
This is obviously an important night for Fredag & Epic26 and we would love to see you all there to share in this celebration of a record we are all very proud of.
All the best

Looking Back, Looking Forward
Hello and Welcome to 2009,
Happy new year everyone! I hope most of your hangovers have faded by now, though if you were at the Epic26 party then probably not!
2008 was full of ups and downs but mostly ups thankfully. It was a busy year for Fredag with many many gigs and lots of hard work in the studio which resulted in Any Color Black’s first record the “Touch Me EP” and the completion of Epic26′s new record which will be released in Q1 this year.
Any Color Black has produced a cool short video to profile their 2008 :

As well as a remix\cover by way of a new years gift:
