Awesome new EP by Oxford’s latex masked electro heroes is out now from all good digital establishments. And iTunes. Oh and it’s got our remix of “Ted Nelson” on it. Seriously though, how good is that?!?!?!?
Coloureds
April update
So Spring is finally springing (kind of) so time for a quick update.
A couple of reminders of upcoming gigs:
12th April – The Wheatsheaf, Oxford
1st May – The Dublin Castle, London
Go to the gigs page for more details and ticket links.
And, as usual, I’ve been unable help myself from tinkering with other people’s tunes so there are 3 new remixes due out in the very near future. An exact date for the release of the Coloureds remix will follow soon but the Listing Ships and Buildings On Fire remixes will be streamable from Monday. I’m hoping that we’ll have some brand new original material to play you soon but that’s taking a bit longer to put together than I originally hoped. But it will emerge soon, trust me.
Until then, here’s a new track to tide you over.
Until next time…

Dinosaurs, Boxes and Riots!
Hello! I don’t want this to be one of those blogs were the poster just apologises repeatedly for not posting for ages but, erm…sorry…
Anyway, a fair bit has happened so let me fill you in. First of all a downsized Tiger Mendoza consisting of Dan and I played a couple of gigs last month with a kind of best of Tiger Mendoza type set with me on controls and vocals and and Mr. O’Driscoll on guitar. To be honest we weren’t sure if it was going to work but it seemed to go down really well. The idea was a king of Amon Tobin / Soulwax type set with lots of TM tracks mixed together in to a continuous 30min mix with Dan playing guitar on top. I suppose it was like trying to convince people to mosh to a DJ set. Which they did. Which was nice. Cheers to Oxbox.tv for having us @ Fat Lil’s in Witney and to Fred Toon for letting play the 2nd and last Psychotechnic League night at The Wheatsheaf, Oxford. You can see some footage and an interview we did at Fat Lil’s by going to the video page. And talking of Mr. Toon…
