FAQ
Frequenctly asked questions
What is Grunt Productions?
We are a collective/company of musicians with similar
outlooks to how music should be made. It is the umbrella name under
which the four core members administer
their creative output; this is why the products and services are so
varied.
Why are you called Grunt Productions?
The name stems from "Grunt Brothers", the
original band name. When the brothers Max and Theo were asked what this
band was going to be called... they just grunted.
Where do you work?
This September (2004) we are completing the year long
relocation into London and all normal services will be cut from Belfast.
Whats the best way to contact you?
The best and quickest was is via e-mail or telephone.
Our contact details are all on the contact page.
Why are there so many ensemble categories?
As the genres and combinations of music that we play
increase it has
become necessary to rename the ensemble into smaller
groups. The drum'n'bass band 'Physic' for example is so different to
the gp ensemble playing dinner jazz that the same name would not be
appropriate. Also as more people become evolved with us -DJs, session
player, producers- the whole musical output and direction changes. Of
course this keeps everything from going stale and adds to the excitement
of working in such a group. To go to the ensemble page click - here

How much does it cost too book
an ensemble?
This depends on; how many people, how much gear, how
far, how long and what the event is. We are all members of the musicians
union and therefore try to follow their recommended costs.
How are MB publications and Potent
Records linked with Grunt Productions?
These are 'sister' companies to Grunt Productions and
are owned by Mark
and Max Buckingham respectively. All three companies
share some of the same resources and support each other.
