We're looking forward to meeting you all! Heavy music represent! Maybe we'll have time for a collab....👀 🎹⚡️🤘 Cheers from Australia, see you soon!
Creating the new YouTube premiere countdown music for the EBU is an absolute compositional highlight. To be able to forge the original "Te Deum" theme with some beautiful ambient sounds, 80s synths, soaring Floyd-esque guitars and a ramping of suspense was very special.
Thank you for continuing to stream 'Promise', legends! It's available on all platforms including iTunes and Bandcamp for download via the link below. We're blown away by the numbers we're seeing.
Ein großes Dankeschön an den NDR für die Einladung und die tolle Zeit! 🙏 - Love, Danny

Thank you to everyone for coming to our Keynote at WAMCon last Saturday!
We’re still overwhelmed by all of the kind and caring messages and displays of support ❤️
Since we were unable to tour in UK/EU this Oct, this does mean we’re left with a lot of merch and a Limited Edition vinyl that we had reserved especially for those coming to our shows. 1/2
