sorry gilberto like melodies you can humm along by yourself, inbetween places, on an afternoon. its all about the weather, big citys and small towns and especially about the people, running around, trying to get a grip on something (or maybe on each other). these songs are shortmovies. somebody has lost the storyboard in the rain, so you can concentrate on faces, sudden movements and the strange guy in the back. if you are into instruments, give a hand to the lazy guitars, the squeeky organs, the swinging basslines, the stoic beats of the rodeo and the little casio. there are voices too. singing about things you already know. but hey: dont you wanna hear about them over and over again?!
order our split ep:
"SORRY GILBERTO VS. BROKOF"
its 7,5o Euros + 1,5o Euros for shipping in germany, 2 in the EU and 4 elsewhere. the online order goes with a little very special extra that you wont get anywhere else.
