August 2006?

videos by peterjrpowell

This evening, i’ve updated a little the FBS discography. As you can see, it’s not finished. I think to finish that for this week end. The next step will be to reconstruct the dvd section (in videos) , i completly forgotten that this section was under construction since june 2006! LOL
You saw that i was less on Official FBS forum, i was here.

The construct of the blog was a pleasure. Visits and feedback are good / several / surprising. You are now an average of 80 vistors by days on www.normancook.info . I know & see that some of them are so intoxicated that they visited my blog all day but you have to know that i probably couldn’t write everyday a topic. The summer & his festivals is always crazy for FBS news. We enter in the month of september.. I’m ready to see the audience of my site decline.

Now, the website will be updated little by little. I think that there will no news about FBS for a long time. Maybe we will see a “champion sound” single but i doubt. We enter in a FAT quite era. I’ll try to do my best & continue to update my website, it will be the archive section which will grow up now and i doubt that lot of people like archive except me…

Thanks for your support.

Best Regards,

FND.

An article from Digit Mag about sleeves and packaging in the mp3 era:

Extracts:
[...]With downloads, the artwork is often gone entirely. In fact, we may be seeing the beginning of a generation gap – today’s teenagers are growing up accustomed to screen-savers, desktop wallpaper and, of course, videos as the primary modes of visual expression associated with music, rather than sleeve art.[...]

[...] “I’m personally a vinyl person,” says Ed Templeton, creative director of Red Design. The company has created artwork for an array of musicians including David Gray, McFly, and Fatboy Slim.[...] But Templeton believes people like to collect. “The public who are buying downloads are kids who’ve never owned a record or a CD,” he says.
