usually it's the other way around, I think

our performance at book launch of 'What Your Teacher Didn't Tell You'

feel the need to relive our last performance (of the year possibly) over and over again?!! well even if you don't, we'll just leave it here anyway, just in case you might want to, who knows.

credit for the video goes to our 200th ep customer! thank you!

hey, about the whole sold-out thing

if there was anyone on the waiting list or who was interested in buying a copy but, well, due to bad luck or misaligned fates we never managed to meet up since the release— the ship might have sailed, but do email us. we believe we have a secret solution :)

200 sold!

I am writing this in the car with Alia behind the wheel. Fueled by the purchasing power of kind strangers and in the mighty shadow of Farish Noor's new book launch, tonight we have sold absolutely all 200 copies of our self-titled EP! Thank you everyone for making us feel a little like rockstars :)

Juice Magazine voted us Best Spoken Word Album of 2009 which is also crazy awesome. Alia and I personally think there might not have been many other contenders in the category, but since it's now out there, we're pretty psyched at the possibility of spoken word releases proliferating henceforth.

I don't always write like this but we're happy and in a traffic jam! Thank you everyone!

Best Electronic/Fusion Act (Solo/Group) — Dizzy & The?

we're pretty blown away that there's space for us in the JunkSounds '09 nomination category, especially since it's regional! Crazy stuff. Of course this means we're up against very, very solid and diverse acts (you think fusion food is confusing? mix all of us together yo), and even our latest music-crush, Tenderfist. Tenderfist rocked our world the last time we saw them, which happened to have us on the line-up as well. They don't even have a release yet but we're standing in line for a trade.

Also, an awesome tweeting byrd we know was there to check them out too, and turns out she's also in on the nominations! So that's Dizzy & The, sidebyside Arabyrd, and Tenderfist, together agaaaain.

And we haven't even talked about the ones from other countries yet...
So. Can we just say upfront that it really is awesome to be nominated?
Because it really is :)
Thanks Junk.



And I don't know about Alia, but I'm not voting for myself. Just seems weird.

TimeOut KL; interview now, show later

Stop! TimeOut Time! (The will kill me for that). Aaaaanyway, TimeOut was also kind enough to invite us to play at their monthly installment show, No Black Tie. We'll be in September's edition on the 16th. it's in our google calendar. bring it on!

dizzy & the quick quick quickie!

We were just live on TV!
We really were!
But I was really nervous and kept staring away from the camera, so my mother at home thought I was reading something. Fail. My heart was in my throat.
