Watch footy of Bridge People playing their hit "Like A Hotel", and groove to the sights and sounds of Fall Fair Car playing a new song called "Savin' Money". Ahh twas a memorable night indeed!

Kubla Khan is heavily pleased to announce the newest edition to the family, Bridge People. Fronted by Seth Eggler (and his mustache), this quartet is cooking up some tasty stuff here in Victoria.

Bedroom Songs by Polestar Preschool

Hello there, children of technology! Surprise! Bedroom Songs! Over the past month I've gone back to Port Alberni to stay with my family twice thanks to a series of birthdays. I get ghosties in my guts every time I take the trip up island. There's so much natural beauty on the coast and it always makes it's way into my music. Over the two separate weekends I stayed at my parents house I wrote and recorded four songs in my old bedroom. 
It was almost an accident. The Cornealis EP should have been completed by now. Bedroom Songs was just something I did in my spare time but it took on a life of it's own. 
Pass The Brain is nearing completion. The only thing left to do is have a final mixing session and then we'll be heading straight to the factory for materialization. 
So enjoy Bedroom Songs for free! FLACs, ALAC, Ogg Vorbis? Shit yeah, uncompressed audio!

Cornealis, Carissa Dorean, Brle Whle, Kaleidoscopic Inner Era

Hello internets! There have been many whirs and hums and clicks and clanks coming from the Kubla Khan factory as of late. Now that 80% of the Family Khan is living with each other in Victoria there has been an increase in production. Nearly everyone in Vic is currently involved in a new project!
To start, the bandshack beauties known as Cornealis have recently finished tracking for their debut EP,  Pass the Brain. I've been appointed to mix it but I've had a slow go of it thus far due to various work related stresses. The good news is I've pulled up my socks and the EP is almost finished! For the hell of it I present to you a sneak noise:

In other news, production has begun on a full length from Carissa Dorean, otherwise known as Carissa Royendyk. The album will be comprised of original material and will serve as a collection of both re-recorded and unreleased songs. Evan Matthiesen is producing.
Carissa is an original member of the Kubla Khan family. She released a 6-song EP in 2009 and has written a batch of lovely new tunes to accompany new versions of these songs. 
Braeley Wong has been a busy li'l beaver. He's been working steadily on a new project with Tyler Barnes of which is called Braeley & Tyler Present Their Kaleidoscopic Inner Era. The two of them have been making music for a while now. Before this latest batch of songs they were two thirds of Rotten Delicious, whose other member,Spencer Reid, seemingly dropped off the face of the earth. B&TKIE recently played a show at the Fort Cafe and are continuing work on their collection of songs. Here is a taste:

Braeley is also working on a collection of his own songs. I haven't heard any of it yet but everyone at the Kubla Kamp is waiting in fervent anticipation. He recently released two songs on his band camp. Here they are!
