The Hills are Alive

Yay, i'm back. But very tired. However seeing as i'm off to LCD Soundsystem tomorrow night I thought i'd best show my face briefly.

So being a headphonesex holiday, it wasn't entirely without incident. However by the scale of my usual travel mishaps, getting lost on my snowboard & ending up in the wrong country (without passports or correct currency) as night decended was pretty mild beans. After all our refuge was a pretty nice bar that served up great food and cold beer. The only penance ended up being a hugely expensive taxi ride around the alps in an attempt to escape from Switzerland. Mind you one of our party, Ryan, was not feeling quite so fortunate as in the gloaming he climbed three mountains with a broken snowboard in an attempt to get back to France.

Look at these fellas getting some big air:



That's kind of what I was doing in my head as I flew over jumps literally milimetres above the powder, before performing a mental 1080 and crashing onto my arse.

They are German and called Saint Pauli. "We are from Hamburg. I hope you like our sound" they wrote. I do Max, I do. The Robot Rock is strong with these.

ELVIS & THE COCONUT - BABY'S LOOKING GOOD (SAINT PAULI REMIX)

DEADROCKMACHINE - DANCEBOY (SAINT PAULI REMIX)


They've also done remixes of Cassius and The Infadels... as well as tracks all of their own which you can hear over on das myspace.
