Email from Maeve O'Boyle this morning ..

''Hello everyone,

I am delighted to announce that my new single is out TODAY!!!

But this is special...

EVERY PENNY raised from EVERY SINGLE SOLD will be donated to "Combat Stress" - The UK's Veterans Mental Health Charity.
"Brothers in Arms" was written after a meeting with a soldier who had suffered from PTSD. I am delighted to be able to support this charity who are coming to the aid of so many servicemen and woman who have left the military with psychological wounds.

PLEASE BUY the single here and lets raise some money for Combat Stress... '' ... Maeve ...

Well a couple of years ago Maeve played in front of 100,000 audience at a concert dedicated to The Popes visit. Just before Xmas she sent the video for the single ''Brothers in Arms'' to a very special place, about the most prestigious venue on the planet I'd say. She was immediately invited to come and play. It's all a bit secret but information will be out soon on that ... I'm sure! Her first album was amazing, released on LINN and Her second, available on pre-release as limited USB from us or Her new label http://www.toytownrecords.com/shop/, is a bit tougher, with some even stronger songs than the first ... HITS! So She is doing really well and without doubt on Her way to the top.

'Brothers in Arms', was written by Maeve after an emotional discussion with an x-soldier whom basically suffered after what He had been involved in. In typical style from this young artist, Maeve was inspired to help and using music, found a way. A few years ago Maeve started an 'out-of-hours' music school to help keep underprivileged kids off the streets and done it with Her own money. She pretty much works full time and hands on and in 2012, an amazing 600 kids went through her school. So She is well know for her big heart.

With ''Brothers in Arms'', a single capable of bringing in substantial revenue, Maeve is donating ''all'' funds from the single to ''Combat Stress' to help just the kind of people that inspired the song.

Nobody likes War but what is often forgotten is that soldiers, in the UK anyway, are often from tough backgrounds with few opportunities and find the army as young as 16 years old. They are totally removed from society, almost no time off, then one day they meet the front line and another day are cast out ... back into public life that they no longer can relate to.

Selling now for less than 20 Sek on itunes ... P.S. ''Hero in the Sky'' LIVE B-side is also a cracker. We need a B-side ... ok ... LIVE straight from the sofa, no mix, no master, to itunes ... interesting!

My first impression of LINN's NEW Akubarik's

Firstly I am all in favour of compact systems so for me it's a great advantage that they are fully active. Technical information you can get from the designer on the following video link http://vimeo.com/search?q=akubarik I can pick a few points about the design. I don't like blue lights ... I'd hoped it would be smaller to fit more of my customers that have smaller rooms and apartments with neighbours. But actualythey look great, very tidy indeed. A good start and very interesting but how do they perform? The obvious reference systems are Akurate 242 Aktiv with LINN Akurate amps or Klimax 350A's reference speakers. Straight off the Akurate 242's can't compete on the bottom end. The Akubariks deliver controlled base no matter the volume. Whether the 3k array performs better than on aktive 242, I don't know but it's probably quite similar. It is very good. It's all very good and well balanced. At no point did I experience any issues with frequ

Visit the LINN factory with us

Det var länge sen vi besökt LINN fabriken och Jag tycker att det är snart dags! Om ni vill följa med (troligtvis sent April, tidigt i Maj) skulle det bli fint  :)   Anmäl till martin@peoplesandschmidt.com eller ett FB meddelande funkar också. Vill kolla intresse först men redan har en bokade. Vi tar en besök till en Whisky destilleri tycker jag och tar in lita av den berömde Skotska naturen.
