(As cited by Unilever): "Made from carefully selected peanuts and roasted to perfection – has no cholesterol, is filled with protein and polyunsaturated fatty acids (good for the heart) and contains vitamins and minerals".

TOUGH MONKEY RECORDS RELEASE
INSTRUMENTAL TRACK ‘STONE COLD’

Manchester, United Kingdom - 19th January 2013 – Manchester based music producer, Jon Brooks, teamed up with fellow Mancunian Clive Farrington (lead vocalist of ‘When In Rome’) to co-write and produce Tough Monkey Records’ latest release: ‘Stone Cold’ - a powerful yet emotive instrumental music track drawing influences from Robert Miles, Craig Armstrong and Mike Oldfield.

Jon Brooks is a British music composer specialising in Music Production for Film, Television, Artists and Advertising. He also runs his own recording studio based in South Manchester, UK.

Clive Farrington of ‘When in Rome’ fame had a No. 1 hit single in the USA called The Promise’.  It was released in 1988.  In 2004, The Promise’ was used as the end title theme for the successful movie, Napoleon Dynamite’.

Jon and Clive also co-wrote and released Clive Farrington’s solo album, aptly named ‘Independence’ last year on 4th July.

The new single ‘STONE COLD’ is being released on their own record label: TMR (Tough Monkey Records) via Kobalt Label Services / AWAL.  It will be available for digital download on iTunes and all other major digital distributors within the next couple of weeks.

The Fumble Fumble Song - Funny Music Video




This amusing and quirky music video features a really catchy song that'll have you singing along in no time. It was written and produced by four British guys as a fun project. The plan was to make it look and sound ridiculous. Let us know what you think in the comment section below.

Check out Darren's Youtube Channel: www.youtube.com/TheMilesBOX
Check out Tony Brown's Youtube Channel: www.youtube.com/wi777ard
Check out Jon Brooks' Youtube Channel: http://www.youtube.com/JonBrooksComposer

LYRICS:
VERSE 1:
Knock, Knock, who's there?
A young girl, pretty and fair.
She's only from next door,
But as common as a whore!

She invites me to come and play,
But I'm not sure what to say.
I think about it once or twice,
Then ask her what's her price!

CHORUS 1:
Fumble, fumble,
Let us have a tumble.
One drink or two
We'll start to coo!

Fumble, fumble,
Let us have a tumble.
Three drinks or four
We'll roll on the floor!

VERSE 2:
If you buy me an alcopop
I'll let you fumble in my top!
For another two or more
We'll tumble on the floor!

We traipse around the pubs
Then off we go, to the clubs
We stay all night and get thrown out
With mischief all about.

CHORUS 2:
Fumble, fumble,
Let us have a tumble.
Five drinks or six
We'll start to mix!

Fumble, fumble,
Let us have a tumble.
Seven drinks or eight
We'll seal our fate!

REPRISE:
Fumble, fumble,
Let us have a tumble.
Nine drinks or ten
We'll be wrecked again!

Should You Change Your Mind - Clive Farrington




This song is one of my favourites from the album 'Independence'. 'Should You Change Your Mind' is track 6 on Clive Farrington's new solo release: 'Independence'.  It is available for download on iTunes: https://itunes.apple.com/gb/album/independence/id670306586

July 4th 2013 (Manchester, United Kingdom) - Music producer, Jon Brooks, teamed up with Clive Farrington (lead vocalist - 'When In Rome') to co-write and produce Clive's first solo album 'Independence'. The official release date is significant as 4th July also represents Clive Farrington's independent release outside of 'When in Rome'.

LYRICS:
(Music and Lyrics © 2013: Farrington - Brooks)

Will you change your mind?
Will you change your mind?
Will you change your mind?
Will you change your mind?

VERSE 1:
That lost look on your face
There is no disgrace
My words seem to fall
Around this empty space
I've tried to look for clues
It's neither win or lose
Your heart will not turn
And according to you

I don't want to be there when you take the path less worn
Though I will be there when your wedding dress is torn

CHORUS:
And should you change your mind
Should you change your point of view
Will you allow some time...
For me to love you?

VERSE 2:
I didn't wanna join the race
Could not live at your pace
And what was there to gain
While enduring this pain?
A false sense of security
Brings with it some obscurity
And if falling from your grace
Means that I can feel safe

I don't want to be there when you take the path less worn
Though I will be there when your wedding dress is torn

CHORUS:
And should you change your mind
Should you change your point of view
Will you allow some time...
For me to love you?

INSTRUMENTAL:

Will you change your mind?
Will you change your mind?
Will you change your mind?
Will you change your mind?

CHORUS:
And should you change your mind
Should you change your point of view
Will you allow some time...
For me to love you?

And should you change your mind
Should you change your point of view
Will you allow some time...
For me to love you?

Should you change your mind
Change your mind

Jon Brooks and Clive Farrington have launched their own record label, Tough Monkey Records, and have released Mountain, the first single from their forthcoming album as a special remix EP.

A message on the official website from the duo, read:

"The new album (and all future releases by us) will be released on our own new label via Kobalt Label Services. The label is called TMR (Tough Monkey Records).

Just Another Love Song - Clive Farrington




July 4th 2013 (Manchester, United Kingdom) - Music producer, Jon Brooks, teamed up with Clive Farrington (lead vocalist - 'When In Rome') to co-write and produce Clive's first solo album 'Independence'.

The official release date 'Independence Day' is significant as 4th July also represents Clive Farrington's independent release outside of 'When in Rome'. When in Rome had a No. 1 hit single in the USA called 'The Promise'. It was released in 1988. In 2004, 'The Promise' was used as the end title theme for the successful movie, 'Napoleon Dynamite'. Due to unfortunate legal issues over the name 'When In Rome', Clive decided to go ahead with a solo album.

The new album exhibits a fusion of styles; blending classical orchestral elements with a modern day electronic sound... as an addition to this, 'Independence' also boasts a hint of the 80's too! It's already receiving extensive radio play and TMR Records have just negotiated and licensed two of the tracks to GAP (Mexico) for use on their latest compilation CD. Some of the album's tracks could be classed as a cross between the 'Pet Shop Boys', David Guetta, Scott Walker and Robert Miles. The songs are honest, suitably original and highly emotive.

Clive: "I met Jon whilst working as a Technical Install Manager at Castle Rock Studios in Alderley Edge, Cheshire, UK. The CRS studio was being built by the fabulous TSP (The Studio People). At the same time, and unbeknown to me, a smaller version on the same design level as CRS was being built right around the corner from my home in Stockport, Cheshire, UK! The builders on that project would come by CRS and tell me about Jon Brooks and how he's into film score projects... Right up my street, I thought!!! Jon has a Masters in Composition for Film and Television. He had just relocated back to the UK after spending six years working as an in-house composer for one of the best audio post-production studios in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. He specialised in music composition and audio production for film, television and advertising. I wanted to get to know him and maybe put something together. I dropped by Jon's studio and left my card with his father. Jon called me a week later, and now... just listen to the new album and breathe in the fabulous results!"

VERSE 1
I'm breathin' in but only breathing thin air
Talking all the time but not getting anywhere
Falling for and in and out of love
The breaking heart comes always hand in glove

CHORUS
I'm barely breathing... when I think about her
I'm barely breathing... when I think about her

VERSE 2
I'm walking down your street, I can't stand the atmosphere
A few small steps away, and then I'll be out of here
I'm walking back to freedom and I'm walking in the rain
I'm moving so my head is clear, 'cos I can't stand this pain

CHORUS
I'm barely breathing... when I think about her
I'm barely breathing... when I think about her
I'm barely breathing... when I think about her
I'm barely breathing... when I think about her

When I think about her...

Breathin' in but only breathing thin air
Talking all the time but not getting anywhere
Falling for and in and out of love
The breaking heart comes always hand in glove

CHORUS
I'm barely breathing... when I think about her
I'm barely breathing... when I think about her
I'm barely breathing... when I think about her
I'm barely breathing... when I think about her

I'm barely breathing...
