Here's a short film we wrote the music and SFX for. We made it with our friend Tap who does our artwork - what do you think?
We've now finished recording our full length album and we're about to mix it. Expect remixes and loads of gigs in the coming weeks.
BackGround Stuff:
Scuta wrote lots of songs and started recording them in his bedroom studio. He met lots of people who came and went from his various false starts and then remembered his old friend Dave Billing. They got together, chose some songs and the name The Dallas Guild, did some more writing and made the Registration EP. XFM were nice enough to make Men In White Coats "Single of The Week" so Scuta put a few copies in small record shops across London. But as he's no salesman he forgot to see if they got sold or not!
He then met Chopper, all playing but no-dancing marvel, and added him to the Guild. Whilst they have been recording more songs and getting their first album together, Scuta got a phone call from someone he had met in a Soho pub who wanted to put Men In White Coats on a car advert. A few months of forgetting about it was interupted by another phone call saying that it was going ahead with a car called the VW EOS. So there it is - on the telly!
