About Me

Friends and friendinnes! Thank you for finding us! Last December, 2 of us came together in an attic chamber to try and come up with some sounds, using a guitar, 2 computers and a MIDI-controller. Not long after, there were 4 of us and many more instruments. Slowly, we're learning to explore the boundaries of the means we have. Improvising and daydreaming, we came up with a variety of songs, of which the newiest you find here. We hope you'll like it and that you'll come to see us, when (or if) the time comes. Love to our friends and those that keep us inspirated! Love to the faint-hearted and the mysterious! Love to those who build campfires and those who spend nights argueing in the kitchen! Come home!
