Artist's Interpretation

About Better Than The Book

Better Than The Book is a ska-punk/skate-punk/pop-punk musical project by UK based multi-instrumentalist, producer and audio engineer, Nick Standing AKA Jabun.

Starting in mid 2012, BTTB formed as a means of catharsis for difficulties in Nick's life, as can be heard in many of the lyrics from One Small Step and Two Years On. Since then, and with the goal of getting people pumped up for living life to the full, Better Than the Book, via high-energy instrumentals and honest relatable lyrics about Nick's own experiences, has been on a mission to create heartfelt anthems to inspire and help people know that they aren't alone with their worries or the mental health problems they face. That along with various stories about life and living make up what it means to be Better Than The Book.

When Nick isn't working on Better Than The Book, he's either working on his other musical project Jabun (ambient, electronic & cinematic music) or tending to his audio production business JabunAudio. Since starting in 2013, JabunAudio has assisted countless musicians, game developers and animators around the globe, working on everything from music to UK broadcast television, and racking up over 20 million collective views on YouTube from his collaborative animation audio work alone.

Nick is always on the lookout for new animators, musicians and other creatives to work and collaborate with and spread his passion for making great sounding productions. Don't hesitate to drop him a line. He'd love to hear from you!
