Hey peeps, I know I said yesterday but it's time to say again!

And to my shock it's actually on there it's so damn surreal. But yeah 11 tracks are now up on iTunes as our album. We hope you enjoy it, we had a lot of fun making it etc.

If you one of those people who isn't bothered about a whole album then I'd suggest Hunter & Hypertension as some good tracks to pick up.

Alongside all the others of course ;)

Here's dee linkey.

Have a good one, and stay super cool_

The Long Road Home

Hey peeps it's finally come around for Auda time! Sorry about the long and strange delays of stuff...

But here's our best beast of a song, Tired of the Weekend came out on iTunes this morning so click on this link to have a look see!

Tired Of The Weekend Single

It comes with the B-Side Blindfold which a lot of you may remember and this is a new version! All the best peeps and thanks for the support_

Hmm I seem to be apologizing a lot at the mo... I've seemed to haven't had enough time to blog for like 3 weeks :S oh dears.

Well luvies this is a new one from the depths of something forgotten, simply to put it we actually have a release schedule!!! Our next single will be out on 16th June which will be Tired Of The Weekend, which is my favourtie track of the album by far. Well yeah I hope you all like it just as much :)

It'll come with Blindfold which is a legendary b-side that's been going for a rather long time actually so I hope you like that too. The album will be out the week after Hmmmm awesome. Mohahahaha.

I'm currently amazingly spaced out so I'm really sorry - leaving a fantabulous void to talk about something. Maybe overgrown chickens, or something more decent like Vixon... But I've never encoutered either in real life, but I've not encountered much at all really, there's the odd Fox and the odd Badger but yeah BORING. Bring on the giant fucking chickens.

A&E = Accident & Emergency

which is an odd place if you've ever spent and time there - which I now have, I won't specify why, but to put it bluntly it didn't involve me being injured twas another. But yeah from 00:00 till 06:00 Tuesday morning in A&E really shakes you up a lot - hopefully never again.

Much Love_

What a year this has been, and it only looks to improve. We've released a single worldwide and are soon to be putting up the album... I say worldwide, but it's only iTunes. A worldwide release would preferably include CD sales, but we can't all be multi-million record sellers. Although I can promise that someday you'll be seeing posters of me on the walls of music lovers across the globe!

   So, I think I may have mentioned Sziget festival in my last blog. If I didn't then Ill say it now. Sziget fetival, £118 (it was only £78, but went up in price on the 15th) for six days in August. Over 1000 bands including Iron Maiden, Kasabian, The Kaiser Chiefs, The Sex Pistols, Apocalptica and a bunch of other major acts thaIe forgotten. This is bound to be the second biggest experience of the year. Oh yeah, it's in budapest.

   The best thing abut this year will be receiving the cheque from iTunes. I think that having hard evidence that our music is good enough to sell will finally prove, to the people I live with, that we aren't a bad band at all.

  Gatecrasher is another plus point to this year. It's a proper dance festival up in Northhamptonshire (Not too far from High Wycombe methinks, Markie). The live stage includes acts such as: The Prodigy, Hot Chip, CSS, The Ceical Brothers, Dizee Rascal, Pendulum, Does It Offend You, Yeah? and loads more. Zane Lowe is presenting New Young Pony Club, Mark Ronson, Jaguar Skills and more.
   The reason I'm going to this one is thanks to Natalie who was lucky enough to win tickets (V.I.P. --- Yes, I get to hang out with the acts) fro Southern FM. So, I'll be off on the 24th of this month to that.

   I had a nice day with Matt recently. We didn't really get up to much though. Spent a lot of time ripping the piss out of my surrogate sister and her friend which kept us occupied.

   Not much more to say now except to Mark. I'll be over on Monday, call me when you get back from college and I'll catch the train ASAP. You need to tell me all about whatever it was you texted Matt.

   Much love to all.

Well folkies! It certainly has been a while since I last assaulted you with my whimsical and wholly pointless text!

   So, it seems as though rigor-mortis is truly setting in for the late Auda. I always assumed that the whole Auda experience would be somehow maintained on life-support via iTunes, but it would seem that the plug has been pulled. Wait!

   I may have spoken too soon! Upon rifling through my unread e-mails I have discovered a possibility of revival (of a sort). We now exist on iTunes! Nothing is as yet available for puchase, but our name comes up in the search... Well, it's something! New hope has arisen from the depths of the ether, WE SHALL LIVE ON!
   Soulshine should be up for sale shortly at £0.79p which will be absolutely marvelous indeed! That will pave the way for the album and subsequently the other singles along with their glamorous B-sides.

   In other news, I am auditioning for a new band!  It's on a completely different plane to Auda (more "user friendly") which should be interesting. I'm hoping, if I get in, that I may be able to inject the project with my own patented oddness.

--- Give your lobes a treat and check out Jake Bullet (www.myspace.com/jakebulletband) to see what I might be doing before long. --

   I also have a job lined up!! Yes folks, Kris will be a working man before long. A local film rental place has offered (that's right, I didn't even ask!) me a job as a semi-manager.
   This means that aside from being a till hand, I'll also be in charge of deciding which films to order in and how much to charge for rental! I'll also be in charge of the shop layout etc... GO ME!!!
    I  have also been offered a job at a resaurant in Rye which is pretty cool. And if I do ever get a job at Hastings Direct then I'll get an extra £250 on top of my first paycheck and an extra £1000 per year afterwards!
   This is because my girlfriend's (Yes, Kris in a proper relationship with an actual mature person!!) flat-mate works there and if I drop his name at the interview then he'll get bonuses which he's agreed to split with me!

   So, all is good on the Krissie front, and Auda dealings are looking up again with iTunes. Not much more to say that hasn't already been said... Actually there is!

   I'm going to this years Sziget festival in Budapest! Headlinging acts include:

REM
Kasabian
Kaiser Chiefs
The Sex Pistols
Iron Maiden
(And someone else who I've forgotten)

Plus there'll be over 1000 other bands playing across the 5 day party!

It's only £78 a ticket as well! How cool is that!?!?!?

I suggest that you all check it out!

Much lovage to yoiu all!

Kx

Heya Peeps seem's that I spoke a little to soon on doubting iTunes and our debut single is out in the ethernet!!!! YaY I was so shocked this morning that it didn't set in at all... Well yeah this is supposed to be advertisment not blabber so yes Soulshine is up on iTunes alongside Dissapear one of our better B-Sides. I know it's 79p in UK and £0.99 in US and I don't have a clue about Euros... Sorry :( And apparently you can turn our tracks into a Ringtone on the US store sounds interesting to me.

Besides that we're just crusing along now done 23hrs work this Bank Holiday Weekend which sucks but it'll get me some money for Uni I suppose.

Stay Cool Peeps_

Sorry about the short comings of my blogage and stuff but I thought I'd try and get the bloody things back on track rather than just drifting about like stupid seagulls. Seagulls are stupid at so many levels that they should all be shot by the way. I mean they quite literally are lost, you know, landfill sites in central England, full of the bastards! Erm HELLO you're a fucking seagull you idiot go back to the sea. These animals can't use there intiative at all.

Oh this is a half century in blogging terms which I think's quite special! I can't remember most of them but it means we've dont 50 since October last year so yay to us little pipsqueaks. Hopefully there will be more to come whilst I'm still living here in Sussex, but when I move of to University in September I think the time will come to stop. There's just nothing interesting to chat about really, ya'know the bands dead and I'm flogging an old horse, I don't do anything exctiting with my life I work 7 days a week. So yeah by September 08 I think it'll be time to end this baffling buffle of cafuffle.

So Auda is turning all mankey and green right now... Seems to be just me who remembers that it once happened - and it keeps me entertained to put my mind back every now and then. It's a bit of a bummer but the AWAL/iTunes thing seems to have gone down the pan, I'm not sure why, but it doesn't bother me at all as it was all gonna happen at my discression and we're obviously not good enough... *I know I should be pissed, but really I'm not* If I can't get any news in the next week or so then I'll literally put all the tracks up on here and allow FREE download of the whole album on LastFM just to get the blasted thing out for people to have - I think that'll be a nicer end to the journey rather than pissing about with this iTunes myth for another couple of months. Tell me what you think!

Yeah that's all from my doodled head of strangeness for now! I will be back next Wednesday where I will probably have decided to let the material loose so plug in and have a good week.

Ooo and Huw Stephens Introducing show is on at 21:00 tonight and then a longer show at 00:00 Thursday morning really good stuff. The NME named him 35th in the names of New Music so he's a proper legend. Go to Radio 1 to find out more about this guy he's doing the unsigned band thing a great deal of work to get there stuff heard - stay safe.
