Norberg Festival 2011 Noisebud, 2011, July 31 We’re home again after a 3 intensive days of electronic mayhem. We have seen an equal portion of geniuses and pure crap. Geniuses are good cause you get inspired to do better, crap is even better since you get that feeling that you’re the fucking king of music and can do everything better and the fools should have booked you instead. The fact that you can leave the stage and grab a beer without the feeling that you’re missing something ain’t to bad either.

Our view on preset music – brutal, raw, unique! 2010, January 13 We just received a e-mail from Native Instruments, they where kind enough to think we would be interested in stealing sounds from an underpaid producer that probably is less talented and has less technical skill then us. Why would anyone buy a sound library. I know people buy them cause it would… Read More
