hey chris,
i'm so into these sounds you are making. you recently met ksenia, well she told me that you were the alps and so i checked your myspace out.
I started getting into these minimilst sounds at the end of last year, just listening to crab smasher and moon milk and such from myspace and then i got into my disco bought their album and really love their stuff can't wait to see them in april. I suppose I'll catch you at the same show.
rad see you there,

if you're in sydeny around easter, we've got a gig coming up on good friday at paddy maguires in haymarket. it will be our first ever show with the new live band line-up now that david and marcella have moved to london. we'd really appreciate all the support we can get so if you're looking for something to do, come on down.
