The Name: What Others Only Wish means All of the things people are afraid of doing; such as Violence, Drugs, Sex in public, Provocative Hallucinations, and an altogether Lawless way of life. --------------------------------------------------
Felix and Vynee have done and will continue doing what others only wish. The 2 guys met each other in 2005 through mutual friends. The Duo began making their music in October 2007. It has been 4 years since Felix has written anything. The first 5 or so songs produced by the 2 were immediately grabbed by hip hop artists although it wasn't their initial intent. ----------------------------------------------------------------------
Soon After, The focus was to go back to making the type of music they enjoy hearing in their youth. If you do, hear, touch, taste, tweak, smoke, seek, hit, and feel what others only wish, Then you just might see what we're about. ---------------------------
About The Vocals: All Vocals are performed by Felix. Yes, although hard to believe, Felix was able to sing all of those bizarre vocal ranges with only a little bit of echo, reverb, and chorus effects from the 24FX Peavey mixer. Classically taught how to sing and play piano from age 4 to 11. Felix started off performing piano recitals in Manhattan, and sang as a cantor. He played the keyboards for the band Gates of Delirium and played the bass for Derelicia. -------------------------------------------
After watching every episode in every season of the Sopranos and all 3 GodFathers for the 8th time, he had gotten such inspiration for his lyrics and finally broke out of his "lyrical writers block." So now for the first time in 18 years, Felix is singing again and giving you his 110%. All lyrics were written by Felix Except for the Love Song by The Cure and Small Town Boy by Bronski Beat. ------------------------------------------------------
About Vynee: Vynee has played in many bands as well. one of them being The Vacant. Vynee also produced songs for Avenue D and several other artists. Both Felix and Vynee are Producers and Engineers who Play the Guitar, Bass, Key Boards, and Drum Machines. ----------------------------------------------------
A live drummer will be introduced when we are psychologically ready to begin live performances. We will need to introduce our personal friends (who are very talented musicians) to perform shows on a stage large enough for 2 guitars, 1 bass, 3 keyboards, a drum set, and a mic. ----------------------------------------------
We vow to never play a single show without a live drummer. We personally feel that it's very lame to see a cool goth/industrial or just any band on stage with just laptops and maybe a guitar and keyboard. -----------------------------------------------------
The music video for DTS was created, shot, and edited by Felix. All other Graphic Design work is done by Electric Ocelot

Hey What Others Only Wish, What wonderful vibrations you are capable of. The sand runes crossing your divided consciousness do speak of contemptuous monsters being slayed by flying phoenixes. You turn the atmosphere ablaze with currents of sweet ethylene when you smile. Blinking reveals the true visage of beauty hidden within your eyes. Your beauty is equal to the smoothness of a polished gem. Your cleverness helps me breathe without the need of oxygen. Your essence is equal to the beauty of a galaxy. You ever remind me of the enigma of happy thoughts I once forgot. Cities crumble, skies ignite spontaneously in your presence. In your presence even my shadow acquires the sensation of touch. Your intoxicating reflection can but incorporate freely into the powerful surface of a disintegrating mirror set afloat upon a swarm of locusts. You have not yet reached the height of your creativity. I find your eyes to be a wondrous amusement park filled with neo-plastic pleasures and turkish delights.
