We've
added a few things to the site: new projects and future accomplishments. We
are looking forward to the e-commerce part being ready and the site to be
fully operational. Yes I know it's taking so much time!. MDR people (the
Ducks!!) are very busy with promotion, gigging, web development, production,
etc... and are own jobs to be able to eat, have shelter and spend all the rest
in this! It's a busy year and we are focusing on... independence. Some things
on this site will be geared much more towards promoting independent thinkers
around the World (thus links on the right hand side on this main page) and
have everyone join in promoting this independence rather than the major labels
and companies controlling how people think and feel.
But we can't complain about those companies. It's all up to us. Either we let them plug us into their matrix and we're the ones guilty or we create our World. And all the tools are there to create that World. We are looking for support. If you have a skill that you think will help us, please contact us. We'll see how we can use that skill. For the moment there's no remuneration sorry...

Quick update: gig on April 24th at Rudyard's (Houston map). Playing with Orent Stirner... or Spirit Noise Academy (not sure of our name yet!!) at 9pm. See everyone there!
March 6th 2009
We're creating another Myspace... space? For the moment it will have full lenght 4Element songs. Eventually we'll transform it... Lots of activity with Mad Ducks. Can't wait for the gigs!
February 1st 2009
'Altered' is out! After a busy year for DJ Lion-O (almost 3 releases within the year 2008 alone!) he will go into temporary hibernation... at least that's what he told the team! We are looking forward to 2009 with a release by Suns Of The Tide and a solo release by Cedric planned. Obviously things can change and this is only the begining!
December 8th 2008
For those of you who have found your way to this site, we apologize for the lack of updates. We have had difficulties with the shop and are still working on getting this working. Our hosting company is saying that "it's easy as 1-2-3"... well guess again!
On the music side, 'Soy Montana' was delayed for release. The production team wasn't entirely happy with it but it is now finished! Plus we will have a second DJ Lion-O release: 'Altered'. A very ambient album. We will have those pages up soon.
Finally please look at some very interesting link under the Ad Hoc bar on the right. The content is in French.
October 19th 2008
New release from Mad Ducks Records! DJ Lion-O strikes again with a very different album. All instrumental and electronic. Check it out!
August 31st 2008
Esbjorn Svensson died in June of 2008 of a diving accident. I only learned this today... 2.5 months later! Such a loss... Please see the Ad Hoc section for some links and music. Him and his band were a breath of fresh air in the "acoustic" jazz scene.
August 19th 2008
The gig on Saturday, or should I say Sunday morning, was interesting. Good crowd; fun to do the sound but had to play 2 hours later than planed. Most people were waiving to the music which is a good sign... but maybe it was because of the amount of alcohol in their bodies. Will keep you posted on any new event. Keep an eye on this page
August 9th 2008
Almost 2 months already! Don't assume nothing has happened; just didn't have much time to provide some news. All the pages on the site are pretty much done. The e-store is being built and should be available soon. As you can see we have a gig happening August 16th. One of DJ Lion-O and Cedric's new project will be playing an improv show. The plan is to maybe record the gig and at least get some video shots for future editing. An album is in the works for that project, maybe for end of 2008 but most probably beginning of 2009. DJ Lion-O's 2nd opus is also well on it's way to be complete. Keep an eye on the Duck!!!
June 11th 2008
Start of a new website with full capacity. Please give us your feedback.
June 3rd 2008
Start of a new project. Live and improvised! More to come.
April 9th 2008
The first DJ Lion-O & The Naked Troubadours album is finished! Done! Finito! Fini! After many hours taning in front of the computer I can definitely say that it's done.
November 19th 2007
I can now confirm that Mad Ducks Records is like the Phoenix: it has resurrected from its ashes!
November 2nd 2007
Mad Ducks Records will probably be released from the asylum and may well start its insane madness again. We'll keep you posted!
