Five years ago we celebrated the launch of Fang Recording, @morleysdartmouth & @frictionbooks (at 45 Portland Street in Dartmouth) with a one-minute jingle called “We’re Changing Our Name”- featuring many of the studio’s musical friends.

Today being the studio & shop’s fifth anniversary it was time for another musical mashup - except this one is six minutes long because everyone’s attention span has increased considerably since 2021.

“FRBQ’d: A Treal Story” introduces the Fang Recording house band (aka @thebroodhfx ) backing up @joelplaskett , @alexanderthegallant and @sarahswire . Thanks to @mikehallfilms for the great camera & editing work and @thomasstajcer for engineering (and for making his swan song infomercial appearance).

To inquire about booking a session at Fang with FRBQ, please contact us at the link in the bio.

Full screen & closed captioned version over on our YT channels.

High fives, best wishes and big love and thanks to Thomas Stajcer - the manager and head engineer @fangrecording for the last 13 years.
Last Friday marked Thomas’ final day at Fang before he moves on to his new career.

Thomas engineered every record of mine since The Park Avenue Sobriety Test and has recorded hundreds of artists and musicians, both local and international, in his time at the studio. Fang wouldn’t be what it is without him- he literally wired the joint. Thomas has passed the torch (actually a headlamp), the tape machine remote, the mouse and a brain full of his knowledge on to Alex Burris (who has been engineering many sessions at Fang for the last 10 years) and more recently to Talon Beek, who will be running the studio with Alex moving forward.

We threw a late notice surprise party at the studio for Thomas a couple weeks back as a send off. Here are some photos from the shindig and a few through the years at the end. Rock on, Thomas. We’ll miss ya. ❤️

PS: All photos by yours truly except for 5, 9 & 11 by Rumi which are the best ones. 1-13 are analog and developed by @friendoffriendfilmlab. Could only tag 20 folks but you’ll get the idea.

📀 Album of the Night: The Waking Night - Brass & Swagger (2013)
One of the Fredericton bands I miss the most is The Waking Night. They had something special. A gritty mix of alternative rock and blues, it was a dirty sound completely their own.
And Matt Legere's voice. Instantly recognizable, raw, and unlike anyone else, period. It's one of those voices you could pick out within seconds, and to this day I still have no comparisons. Every time I put this record on, I'm reminded just how lucky we were to have bands like this coming out of #Fredericton.
Shifty Bits Cult 4ever.
