W: Real Names and Ages
C: Remo, 26 / Lukas, 27-
W:For how long you've been producing music?
C: We've been producing music together since may 2007. But we were both in several projects before and remo is playing in a rock band besides cryptonites.
W: What are you're influences and what are you guys listening right now?
C: All time favorites are radiohead, nine inch nails, zoot woman, can, prince, archive, depeche mode, editors, interpol, the strokes, all the timbaland productions... well the list is endless.
W:Do you plan to release material in 08?
C: Yes at the moment we are in the studio recording songs for our first ep, which is going to be released in the beginning of 2008. then our remix we did for the ocelot mthrfckrs will be released on iheartcomix records next year as well.
W:Are you working with a record company?
C:No, we aren't signed yet. But in our opinion nowadays it isn't necessary anymore to have a record company to release your music. We have plans to start our own label where we can release our own music and also music from other artists and friends. but it is too early to talk about it.
W:Do you think big players in the scene (Justice, Kavinsky, etc) are so distracted with tours etc, that you guys like Moulinex, the valerie guys, data etc are producing what is going to be heard in 08?
C: Of course being on tour can be distracting but it gives you new expiriences and influences as well and that may be inspiring when you..re back in the studio. But you are right, there are a lot of upcoming talents out there, that are worth a listen.-
W:I know Switzerland is close to everything in Europe, but are you planning to move to a bigger city to have more impact?
C: We really like living in switzerland (even if it..s bloody freezing at the moment) and with the internet and especially myspace you can connect with people from all around the world. but maybe the time will come where we decide to move to a bigger city.
W:Whats your relation with the Valerie guys and Disco Texas?
C:There's no direct connection to the valerie guys. we first became aware of them through russ chimes which is a good friend of us. We really like their quality output. Regarding disco texas we got in touch with them through moulinex. they asked us to do a remix of our "hands of god" which was a huge honour for us. These guys are very talented and will for sure cause a furor on the dancefloors in 2008.
once again: thanks a lot for your support! we really appreciate it!
