March 4 Update

D.A. — Thu, 04 Mar 2010 19:09:04 +0000

Hey Everyone,
Sorry that we haven’t been posting much lately, but there’s a good reason: we’ve been working on the next album. It’s been a long wait largely consumed by touring, but we’re finally back in the studio cookin up some dirty jamz for ya enjoymentzzzz. That’s all I can tell you right now, but I also thought I’d post some pics from an acoustic performance we did the other day here in Wisconsin at our friend Gary’s office. Props to CJ Foeckler for the sweet photos!
More soon, folks.

Hey everyone,
As you might know from prior posts and tweets, we recently filmed the video for “Ciroc Star” in Las Vegas with Diddy, Jadakiss, Clinton Sparks, and some other very special surprise guests. Well Clinton decided to do some filming behind the scenes and put together a “Cirocumentary” to document the shoot. Here’s part one of it!:

In the studio with Pharrell

D.A. — Sat, 19 Dec 2009 20:33:22 +0000

I went out to L.A. this past weekend to work with Pharrell on a soundtrack he’s overseeing for an awesome new animated film, Despicable Me. Here’s a shot from the studio.

I also got to check-out Hans Zimmer’s studio, which is unreal. Here’s a picture of that:

Max and I also visited NYC and met with Diddy to discuss the upcoming “Ciroc Star” video, which we’ll be shooting in Vegas soon. Stay tuned for more details on that!

Hope you all are enjoying the holidays!

A Cappella Version of “She Loves Everybody”

D.A. — Wed, 09 Dec 2009 23:11:52 +0000

One of our most steadfast supports, Angela in Minneapolis, just sent us this clip of an a cappella group covering “She Loves Everybody.” Max and I used to be engineers at Harvard’s campus studio and, to our frustration, often had to record a cappella groups. Luckily, the Octopodes from Johns Hopkins University did a great job on this one. Extra props to the beat-boxer for his innovative dance moves.
