Fat Freddy's Drop - Based on a True Story
Television (Full Length) – 2006
We all wanted travel and you just couldn't ask for a better way to travel than with music.– Nicole Duckworth (FFD Manager)
Sometimes it's not just blatantly listening to other wicked bands, it's just everything about being on a tour and those new experiences that kind of inspires new music I reckon.– Chris Faiumu (MPC Technician)
They played at Cafe Moskau and people were, when they started it with the beginning of the track, people were just up in the air screaming, they were singing along. Then we just have sold a thousand vinyls copies. Vinyl copies! And I mean we stood there and were just like "What the hell is going on?"– Matthias Bohmbach (Label manager, Sonar Kollektive)
