About Me

we don't believe in "genres"...just in good music. In one review someone wrote about us: "it's like they took all musical styles and genres from the past century and mixed them all together".
Some day we might make a pop song...another day it can be experimental, ambient, electronic, disco, jazz...you name it. As long as it's being done with a sense of humour. A splendid time is guaranteed for all!
