Influences
Raymon de Miraval,Tom Waits,The Pogues,Les Negresses Vertes,The Dubliners,Planxty,Radio Tarifa,Manu chao,Sanseverino,Besh o Drom,Cat Stevens,Jake Thakeray,Georges Brassens,Nick Drake,Elvis Presley,The Beatles wether i like it or not,in fact i better admit to Led Zeppelin,Black Sabbath and Pink Floyd while I'm at it!and lets not forget the ancient masters: Jethro Tull,Roy Harper,Pentangle,Blowzabella,3 Mustaphas 3.
But really the strongest influences inflicted on my poor young mind were the irish songs,jigs and reels forced on me day and night throughout my poor unfortunate youth,which have left thier indelible mark in the form of a reccurent twitch in my right eye....

on their self-titled album, the terrordactyls' quirky, lighthearted yet decidedly melancholic pop/anti-folk tunes are augmented by toy pianos, kazoos, and the voice of kimya dawson (the moldy peaches, juno). despite all these charming trappings, though, nothing really serves to take the edge off the terrordactyls' gutsy interpretation of the sad sweetness (or sweet sadness) of living.
Check out the WICKED floorfilling remix I did for Äl Jawala! German balkan big beat, oppaah! Äl Jawala vs Merdan Taplak - Borderbounce as played on Dour festival, check out the movie!
