Homework Project
The enigma that are Eskimo Project are getting closer and closer to having
their 2nd tome completed and we have been enjoying the most recent mixes
whilst hacking round the Staines one-way system in our company RS Cosworth.
If you see a heavily-inked forearm squashed against the bottom of an open
window of a Cossie with a Rothmans pinched between forefinger and index,
that will be The Pig, our version of Top Gears' The Stig who we get
to Road Test all BMM material as this is the only true place to hear if
a recording really bangs the drums. And this one gets under the skin like
a tattooists gun.
Another winter in the studio only goes to show that Eskimo Project have more grit that a council salt-spreader and this is borne out in the latest collection of tracks. Heavier guitar but with beguiling melodies and strangely uplifting harmonies, this record will cock the ear of all hardened music fans looking for a little more than skinny jeans and skinny ties to go with their skinny lattes.
The Rumour Mill Overheard at an Industry Awards ceremony....."Eskimo Project had let slip during a meeting with their Press Agent, Simon Towell, that they may do a secret gigs this year."That's it, that's all I heard....

New album demos In response to a number of requests from those of you who are following the Diary page we've placed some more recent and relevant album demos on the music page. Remember they're just very rough demo mixes with guide vocals but they should help make sense of some of Eskimo's ramblings.
Global Igloo With hits and e-mails from around the world over the last few months it seems that the message is finally getting out there. This gives rise to the exciting prospect of the first global choir performing on our second album. Please keep an eye out for details of how we intend to achieve this in the New Year. And remember, a choir is just an organised group of singers; we'll do the honours with the organising, if you'll do the yodelling. (Singing in tune is optional).
Eskimo Cocktail For those of you who didn't make it to the album release party and haven't yet had a chance to sample the delights of our own cocktail, now's your chance. The recipe's listed below and we guarantee that 'Yellow Snow' will brighten up even the dullest of office parties. Go on give it a try… Yellow Snow (Eskimo Kiss) Vodka
Kahlua / Tia Maria
Half & Half / Milk and Cream
A float of Amaretto
It tastes something like a screaming orgasm
