New Song: BEEP

Hi you!!

You've been so wonderfully patient! And now, today, just as promised, we are sharing our new song with you! It's called BEEP (and is in no way like that Pussycat Dolls song that goes by the same name). It's really the beginning of a new era for us, because this will be the first song for our album! 

We have made lots of songs before this one, and uploaded them on our youtube channel. But most of them just didn't sound finished. The last couple of months we tried to refine them a little and add more instruments, but it always ended up kind of messy. So we decided to scrap our old songs and start anew. We learned how to make arrangements on our laptops and had a lot of fun with it! 

We hope you'll love it and have it stuck inside your head all day long, just like you did when you heard I Like It in 2012. 

TNT out! Beep!

(oh and please watch it in 1080p HD, even though it's just a picture. We hate blurry videos...)

Making of Sold His Soul (Music Video)

Hi you!

Last year, on the 15th of July, we recorded our music video for Sold His Soul. We had it all written out, shot per shot. We dragged along lots of bags full of clothes, makeup, jewellery etc. Jade's dad filmed it, and Elvi's boyfriend Oz starred in it as the dark one (figuratively speaking obviously). The next day Jade edited it and -bam!- it was uploaded on youtube. We made that video quick-as-a-cat but it did take some work to get ever little detail just right. Below are some pictures of the process. It includes us goofing around on the very cool set, which is a gas station in the abandoned town of Doel. However, you'll also see us putting on our makeup and doing our hair. It was a lot of hard work, but also a lot of fun, and we love the result!

Hopefully we'll be making more video's this year!

Tall and tiny's "How We Make Music"

Hello all!

We've been working on our music together, and we wanted to share our ingenious way of doing so, with -wait for it...- you! 

Since we live in different cities, and since we have busy schedules, we decided that getting together for rehearsals just wasn't the way to go if we wanted to make some progress. So, what we do is the following (and yes we are summing it up with tiny snowmen, because 't is the season): 

☃ One of us makes the base for a new song. (drum track, bass line and basic singing melody)

☃ The file (which is a logic project) is sent to the other. 

☃ Then, the other one can make some changes and adds some stuff (electric piano, new vocal line).

☃ Then the whole project is sent back again, and that's the way we do it. Back and forth, back and forth!

See, in order to be able to work this way, you really need to get along well, and fortunately, we do! We are very honest with each other about our projects. If one of us adds something to the song that the other one hates, it's easier to be honest about it and change it, instead of being grumpy about it and not liking your own song anymore. Best thing is, this actually rarely happens. =) 

What's wonderful about this way of making music, is that whenever either one of us is feeling 'stuck' (you know, writer's block) we can just send it to each other. Also, you get such fun things if you work together, yet apart. We keep surprising each other with new lyrics or new riffs and it's really exciting to receive an updated version of a song through WeTransfer, because we never know what we're going to get! 

So, that's what we wanted to share! Do you think you would like making music this way? 

And, nostalgic as we are sometimes, here are some pictures of us rehearsing and playing together! 

Love,

Tall and tiny

New Song - Sneak Peek

Hi!

In between all other posts, we'd like to remind you of the fact that we are still making music. It might seem unlikely, but so true! Aaaand to prove it, we have a little sneak peek of our new song for you! And feel free to watch our last music video below as well. You really should, and then stand in awe, because it is awe-some!

Lots of love!
