Ninja Signed To Retrospect?

Recommended Posts

Cool eh? Let me tell you the story. I announced a couple of months ago that Wild August had signed with Retrospect for a 2 album deal. Well , turns out the 2 lead singers for Wild August....Sullivan Bigg and Danny Stanton both have albums with other projects which I promptly licensed.

 

Danny had 2 albums with Ninja.

 

Sullivan had his own solo album.

 

What's also interesting is that Sullivan and Danny both have big booking agencies on opposite sides of the country.

I think we'll find a lot of new Retrospect releases silver-pressed now that I have worked out an amazing deal with a company here in the U.S.

 

So , my first reaction to that question is yes , Wild August will be silver and so will Ninja as well as most of the new Retrospect releases.

 

 

 

P.S. By the way David , thanks for talking so much shit about my company to SMASH L.A. , it really turned them off of SunCity and right into a contract with Retrospect. Keep up the good work.

Sam,

 

I only speak the truth mate!! You got any facts to back that up??

 

Smash L.A. asked me about your label and I gave them nothing but truth. I've told you the situation, Suncity Records only releases albums when we can track down the original masters and unfortunatly Smash L.A. only had media of their cassette tape. Shame, because their album is nice.

 

Kind regards

Dave

Well , David I guess 'the truth' set you and SunCity free.......free of getting the contract with Smash L.A.

 

....and they told me that you were perfectly prepared to release their album FROM YOUR CASSETTE TRANSFER 'REMASTERING' job.

 

So don't spew your bullshit David , you lost out because you have 5 releases compared to the 140+ that I have.

 

That speaks louder than any crap you spread about me to other bands , not to mention that your conduct is extremely unprofessional.

 

At least Smash L.A. will now see a release date BEFORE December 2007.

Haha,

 

Sam, one thing I am strong about is that we "Suncity Records" ONLY release albums that have come from the original masters. We certainly don't do any cassette/L.P. transferrs at all. I'm not the one spewing shit, either you or Smash L.A. are. Bands will say anything to sell their product, don't you understand that?? I can't really respect anything you say anymore considering you believe everything that comes from Lynn Edward Glezens lying mouth!! You're a joker Sam!

 

Kind regards

Dave

Sam,

 

They may have said that I talked down about Retrospect Records, but they did ask me my opinion on your label and I gave them the truth. The truth about Retospect Records isn't pretty, is it Sam?? but I can't be to blame because of that.

 

You know what they say, the truth sometimes hurts.

 

Kind regards

And what's the truth David?

 

That I have released 50 albums for every one album you have?

That I am getting over 100,000 hits a month on the website?

That I pay more royalties that any other label?

That stores all over the world are buying Retrospect cd's?

That Radio stations in 16 different countries are playing Retrospect artists?

That I can release a cd within 2 months of announcing a signing?

That I am the largest re-issue label in the world?

 

All of those are FACTS. Now what's your resume looking like David?

 

Cuz I can smell it from here in Las Vegas.....

    • To tell you the truth, we couldn't agree on a title so I suggested III. It's been three years between every album and this is our third. ; )
    • New album 'III' out May 19 through Pride & Joy Music. Press release: STORMBURST was formed in July 2014 with the intention to make high quality Melodic Hardrock music without any compromises, whatsoever. No more covers so to speak, just all original song material. Bass player Kent Jansson (Six Feet Under, Keen Hue, Steam) and guitarist Thomas Hansson (Steam, Coastline) started out with singer Lars-Åke ”Plåtis” Nilsson (Keen Hue) and to achieve the special sound they were looking for. Keyboardist Peter Östling (Six Feet Under) was sent a demo and pretty much joined immediately.   In late 2019 original drummer Peter Ytterberg quit for personal reasons and was soon replaced by Mr. Pelle Hindén of Eternal (Of Sweden). Stormburst as a band and unit is all about uncompromisingly doing what you believe in, even if you have a headwind. When the wind blows hard in life sometimes (as it really does), the love of music is still in all conditions strong and sustainable. Stormburst has the ability to reflect this with their own music and lyrics and their style can best be described as a combination of traditional Melodic Hardrock & AOR. The band is based in the heartland of Sweden, Dalarna and all members contribute to the song-writing and arrangement process.   Stormburst have released two albums so far: ”Raised On Rock” (2017, AOR Heaven) and “Highway To Heaven” (2020, AOR Heaven).   Now, “III” is the third album by Stormburst which will be released on May 19th, 2023 via Pride & Joy Music.  All songs were written by Nilsson, Hanson, Jansson, Hinden, and Östling and recorded At Studio Plåtis Vansbro and Studio Bakery Äppelbo between December 2022 and February 2023.
