About Me

The Boy w/ the Glitters was born in 1972 or 1981 or in 1985. He's got no friends+no directions+no precise ambitions. Except from being on a stage which is something he hasn't done for like 6 years. The Boy w/ the Glitters lives in a small room with not enough oxygen to write any other song. He is basically unhappy but he still believes in love. Even though he won't admit it.
2000
From the ashes af a sadly missed life Tbwtg starts his own band The Boys With The Glitters. The notable collaboration with Luca Indie and the first Diva of the newly born millennium, Arancha Tenerani, makes history with the release of I'm Exactly Who You Think I Am. NME defines the song as the greatest thing in pop music since The Queen Is Dead. On its Christmas issue cover, Select states: "Newer Order".
2002
The Boys With The Glitters reinvents shoegazer with Goodbye. With many regards to producer/remixer P. "Da Bad Marker" Biddy.
2004
The band is disbanded. Tbwtg in back on track with actually two tracks (so maybe he's back on tracks) that can only be defined as 'electronics from the future'.
2006
Despite being no-no-notorious for his promiscuity, Tbwtg celebrates the end of the year getting artistically engaged with Tésco . This new collaboration aims to give birth to hit singles on a weekly basis. Two by now.
2007
L.I.E. and Eyecandy get published. Tbwtg adjourns Exactly to the new year. Work is in progress on some new songs. Extensive touring is scheduled for late spring.

Hit single!

Finally it is. A hit. In the quite-higher-than-gloss incarnation Indecision reveals itself pretty... revealing. Even for the maker. Enjoy. You know you deserve it.

Pretty undecided

Indecision, the higher than gloss edit, is almost ready. Just a matter of time. Eh. I guess this one is a bit autobiographic. For both of our heroes. It's one of those recurrent period when things go ...

Hawaii makes two

After a long weekend, 'Hawaii (new edit)' is released. And so is 'Hawaii vs. Dejavu' in its newest prototype form which is quite-fittingly-called 'dedicated to the dedicated edit'. Dttd from now on. T...

Did we say versus?!

While the random edit of Hawaii is in the refining phase, Tbwtg couldn't just stop and relax for a while. Having recharged his indie factor on a for-once-in-a-quite-long-while great friday night, Tbwt...

First time at Hawaii

The random edit for Hawaii is almost finished but still never bounced. Tbwtg is thinking of a versus from the past. We could say it's a bit of a 'dejavù'. The weekend's going to be busy.

History (repeating?)

Profile has been updated with some historic details. Which would be quite useful if we really wanted to avoid the same mistakes from the past over and over. But it seems not.
