Upright Sounds goes film sound!
Kari Heino assisted as boom operator/sound recordist on set with the film team put together by Zingofilm & TV AB, a production company that focuses on swedish quality film and TV for the youth. The director and writer is Kurt Öberg – also running the movie script writing school “Manuspiloterna” in Stockholm. It was an intense week of filming working both in the wilderness outside Bollnäs and in central Stockholm.
Outreach, a new Christian project started by Petter and Johan Sundqvist after their former band “Exalted” split up, visited Upright Sounds for 8 long hours in the studio recording their first five songs. With solid lyrics and a promising sound – make sure to check out their live videos at MySpace.
Upright Sounds has taken on a new assignment in live sound. This time it’s pretty big, Vineyard Norden‘s annual summercamp. People from all the Nordic/Scandinavian congregations are gathering there. This year it will be held in Rimforsa, Sweden, about 2 hours south of Stockholm 22-28’th of july.
Kari Heino will be head Audio Engineer, mixing all the sound and light, stage/monitor tech and contact person for the bands playing. This will include one big stage, complete with PA and lights, for about a ten-man-band and seats for 1000 people inside a big circustent. Two additional smaller stages will be there also and a nightcafé with PA, open mic anyone-can-perform kind of style.
All the equipment is provided by (in Kari’s opinion) Sweden’s best Live Sound company APM Pro Audio.
Good, early planning starting now and a lot of phonecalls will make this summercamp a very nice memory, just as the last two years 2005 and 2006.
Summer is just around the corner!

Upright Sounds is taking a deeper dive into Live mixing and Music Production.
Previous singer/songwriter band Martin Sundberg has during last year acquired a drummer (John Sempill) and a bass player (Tommy Andersson).
Thereby the band has changed it’s name to Moore. The first recording since the demo last year, a brand new EP is coming out this spring, which has been recorded at the famous Decibel Studios.
Upright Sounds will be co-producing the EP together with the band members.
Kari Heino has been mixing Live concerts in Stockholm and other locations in Sweden for two years now with various analog and digital consoles.
This spring will be extra exciting for Upright Sounds, starting with a larger event/concert on saturday 24’th of February where Kari will be responsible for the stage, sound and lights.
