Remixes! Head To The Side!

Johannesburg-based Anthony Haenen sent us this totally radical flippedy flop of good old Head To The Side. Nice. Check out Anthony's other stuff here and here.

Desmond & The Tutus - Head To The Side (Patcher's Straight Up Mix)

Check out all the other remixes by clicking here, and if you're up for it - download the seps to any Desmond song here.

We'll be releasing the seps to all the songs on our new EP soon, so if you're into that sort of thing, do come back soon. x

You can be a winner!

Hey check it out, we're almost at 100 000 views on our myspace. Which isn't much if you're Beyonce or Gnarls Barkley, but it's a hell of an achievement if you're us. So, if you happen to be visitor number 100 000 take a screen shot, mail it to us and we'll send you some treats!

New toys. New songs. New practice space.

Pictures! UK Tour

Hey I just uploaded a bunch of picture from our UK tour to our Flickr page, go check them out why don't you!

Woods Street Party: An Apology

Hi friends.

To everyone that came to check us out at The Woods Street Party on Saturday, thanks a million, it was awesome to see you again.

Please accept our humblest apology for the unprofessional show.

Believe us when we say that we do our very best to put on the best show possible every time we play. So it really breaks our little hearts when we are told that the schedule is running two and half hours late, and that we're not going to get a soundcheck, and that the band before us is playing an hour and a half long set, and that the sound guys are running the power cables straight through the 1000+ crowd, and that we've got to cut our set down to 25 minutes when we had planned to play a bunch of brand new songs.

So again, we're sorry. And we'll make up for it soon. We promise. How does a new EP sound? Soon, my pretties, soon.

In the meantime, here's a video of Adrian Levi to cheer you up.



New merch, new tour, new EP, new everything. Keep your beedy little eyes peeled! x

25!

So after a long day of googling ourselves (you know that's all we sit around and do) we found out that this guy named our Tuckshop 25th best album of 2008. 'Officially' better than Beck's Modern Guilt and Bloc Party's Intimicy. Hey if it's on the internet it must be true!

Apricot Jam Remix and J.Gomez goes Deep!

Two more remixes have rolled in, and we got a bit lazy with this blog so it took us a while to upload them but that doesn't mean they're any less deserving of being heard by the 15-odd people that actually visit our blog.

Some friends cooked this crazy little electro number up.

DJ BJ & Jizzylebig - Good & Guilty (Apricot Jam)

And another friend took Kiss You on the Cheek and deepened it up almost beyond recognition, but hey if that's what you're into!

J.Gomez G.Family - Kiss You on the Cheek

Make your own remix by downloading the seps here, or just listen to what everyone else is doing and click here!

How Overseas Are We?

Yip we're back from our 'world tour' (please note inverted commas) and back to our boring lives. Here are some clips from the glory days.

Peter 7" Out Now on Every Conversation Records!

So, a little while ago these crazy Japanese guys called us up. Yada yada yada the Peter 7" is now out!

Very limited edition apparently, so if you want one you'd better go here or here and get one before they're all gone!

Tracklisting:

2. High Fives

And also out now is 'It's Great Not to Care', a compilation by another Tokyo-based label called 'Big Love' and if you want to get your hands on that, click here or here now!
