Raine Studios

This is - Allan Bird + (Allan Briany) + either of the two ‘Raine Studios accounts.

This is my final message to all who SAY you enjoy my music so much.

“Effortlessly Drifting While Musically Shifting” is the second last track you will hear from me on this website, because as previously mentioned - I am a struggling pensioner of 67, living in Cape Town and last week I was forced to pawn my keyboard in order to pay this month’s rent and to calm the hounds at the door.

In June 2017, I released my debut’ (Another Land) via all the On-Line music stores. Then in 2019, I released my 2nd album (Another Place) and to date - only 14 albums were purchased (8 of those were my friends). So without a keyboard I cannot compose, play, record or release the proposed 3rd album (Another Time).

Sadly, due to the overwhelming silence out there , the N1M tribe has spoken (ha ha haa) and I have to hand in my musical torch. But, the only thing I still struggle with is, how can US$ 99 cents be too expensive in 2021 to purchase ONE single track of music? It boggles the mind.

I bid you all happy listening and please take heed of this piece of very sound advice.

“Create a Perfect day for yourself by doing something for someone
who has NO way of ever repaying you – it REALLY changes lives.”

THANK YOU ALL for an amazing ride,

God bless and please STAY SAFE out there,

Allan

Hello N1M listeners and dedicated music lovers out there,

Firstly, for the 32 new subscribers within the last 2 weeks (mostly from Canada) absolutely awesome to have you on-board, and a huge THANK YOU to those who also recommended my tracks to all your contacts on social media – THAT is greatly appreciated.

Secondly for the newcomers who might not yet - have figured it all out.
My real name is Allan Bird and I am the sole composer, musician, and producer of 3 tracks on (Allan Bird) + two diff accounts of (‘Raine Studios) as well as - the recently created Allan Briany account. That was the only (legal) way to upload 12 current songs of mine onto (expired link).

And an extra HUGE thank you goes to Bernice down under who negotiated with a radio DJ to play Dance Across The Nations – across her city last weekend.
--------------------------------------------------

UPDATE:
Today is the 1st of February and I am currently writing and recording new songs for my 3rd instrumental album (music for film) and hope to release it by 1st April. However, should I complete the production earlier, I will definitely notify each of you personally via email for sure.

To those who kindly wrote me and said Dance Across the Nations IS my best song, ha ha haaa. I accept the bait (and silent challenge), but I intend to compose at least two tracks to beat that record you guys have set for me.

I am also soooo very glad most of you enjoyed the original train tracks sound effects on Robi’s Theme and he blushed when he heard many ladies said his Swiss-German accent was sexy.

Finally - please be very careful during this time of uncertainty out there and stay safe because you are young and you guys allll have your whole lives ahead of you. Therefore MAKE A POINT of not being caught out and ending up in any hospital because of a few silly hugs, kisses & get-togethers which could have put on hold a little longer!

Enjoy - listen – dance – laugh – while YOU create the most fantastic life for yourself . . . in time.


God bless all of you,
Allan

Below are the main links and I say in advance - for those of you who will faithfully purchase - YOU ARE THE BEST.... and for those of you who won't - I'm gonna compose a song just for you guys for being so nasty. Ha ha ha haa.

Hello, subscribers - friends and those who have been saying SUCH incredible things about my music.

CD Baby has received the cover and 17 whole tracks form me (for you) and the inspection team is busy checking out the correct specifications and Another Land should be on sale by this coming Monday or Tuesday.

I have created a pilot video on YouTube in the meantime, so please go and check it out as the HD photos I used will blow your minds. And PLEASE . . . take 2 mins to leave a tiny comment and leave your city and country in the comment - as I'd really like to know how many countries I can reach pertaining to the title of course.
Have incredible weekend guys (and dolls).

Hello you wonderful group of avid listeners of real music that touches the soul. I have finished composing and producing the first instrumental album I have ever attempted to put out there. Please go and listen to the title track ANOTHER LAND - which I uploaded minutes ago and I hope you will enjoy it just as much as I loved creating it for you guys.

And special thanks to ALL of you who have subscribed as if i had never received a single subscriber . . I would never ever have thought people liked my music that much. YOU have helped me create this (hopefully) best instrumental album and I shall update you all as soon as I am able to launch this baby. God bless and thank you all again. Allan.

Hello Subscribers,

Thank you so much for enjoying the 3 tracks I uploaded a few months back, but I need to update you and the music - hence the message.

I am a pensioner living in Cape Town and cannot afford the annual fee to upload 30 of my tracks and I am not leading poverty by any means, merely stating the facts.

So I am replacing the 3 that have been bouncing in the top 10 places over the last few weeks and if . . . enough folk like and vote them to remain in the top ten places, I shall then take a loan out from the bank and purchase a cheap Roland E09 (same model my friend had for the tracks) and seriously start on my first instrumental album.

THANK YOU all for shocking and surprising me by your lovely comments and kind short messages. I really appreciate each and every one of therm.

I am allowed to send you all a snippet of one of the tracks I will be uploading next week and it is completely divorced from the film score "Lost Somewhere in the Streets of France"
BUT . . . ironically is currently being played in 2 night clubs in France itself.

Here’s hoping I can force you to get up and dance to this called - “Dance Across the Nations” which I will film and upload onto YouTube as a music video by August this year.


God bless and thank you all again.
Allan
