Post Modern Pants

About Me

The Post-Modern Pants are a retro-electro duo from Australia/New Zealand based in Berlin. Consisting of DJ Daf (indie-rocker and former guitarist and singer of The Modern Pants see: http://www.daphneowers.com/music.html) on vocals, drum machines and casiotone, and Ozi Bsy (aka DJ the Box Room Rebel and former bassist of The Modern Pants) on e-guitar and drum machines, the Post-Modern Pants have forged a unique Aussie/New Zealandish retro-electro sound. With influences as broad as The Smiths to Le Tigre, admist the electrotrash surroundings of Berlin, the Post Modern Pants have broken off a bit of new ground in the emerging genre of retro-electro and stand on it proudly!
