Torpedo Boyz Pet Remix
In between mixing and completing the new pet album we just did a nice little
electro-SID-remix of the Berlin/Paris/Tokyo-based funky-electro-hipsters
Torpedo Boyz -track 'Start Beeing Nicer'.
It was released last week on 12 inch vinyl only and is climbing up high
in the the German Club Charts DCC (currently on position 12)
The Boyz told me the 12-inch is already sold out :(
If you'll ever get the chance to see one of the few TB-live performances -
don't miss it!!! We just saw them at their record release gig 2 weeks ago
at the lovelite/berlin and it was damn cool.

PET Recording Sessions 2005
The last weeks were pretty busy and we worked hard on new songs
for the next pet-album. While everybody else in Berlin went away for
holidays or at least to the next lake, we rented a little studio in Neukölln.
Teti-V and Dodo came over from Milano and we turned up the amps to 10.
You can probably enjoy the result within this year. Until then have fun
with some session pics :-)

2raumwohnung-PET-Remix
We just finished our first remix-work 'Wolken ziehn vorbei' for the
german supergroup 2raumwohnung. The track will be in stores on
the 21/03/05 as a B-side of the CD-single 'Sasha' and we think it's
reeeeelly coooooool...lots of old synths in it...and featuring Eric on drums.
(Thanks again to Captain Lahmann for your help and Hi to Inga and Tommi!)
Sorry this track is not available as digital download :-(
you can hear it here
at amazon.de.
