One cigarette for two lovers

I’m not really a talker

I like to keep my mouth shut

Doesn’t mean I think less of you baby

I know my silence drives you crazy 

One cigarette for two lovers

Consuming each other, Pure love is gone

No more smoke to share, With me you’re done

Mountains of ashes, Nothing’s left to offer

EIKOOO !

She is cute, she is funny,  she got style, she knows how to sing, yes of course she is Japanese !


Five years ago, this little piece of woman came to me & said something like -“hey I like your style! I’m from Japan I don’t know anyone in Paris, do you know anywhere to party?”- She was the most cute lady I’ve seen in years….

Eiko works in fashion, she is a DJ playing in the best cities in the world and she sings.. We can say she’s gifted.

I cannot stop myself listening to her EP these days, so come and meet my friend here:

For this video I shot myself in the countryside nearby Paris, where I love to escape. There you can walk hours without meeting a soul, enjoy the silence and the birds, pick flowers and ladybugs, meet ducklings and ducks, big fishes and little frogs…
This was exactly what I needed, a BIG ESCAPE. Yup!

Faded voice full of tears, I am getting too weak. I was not able to record the voices of this song, though we thought it was the perfect timing to record the one called “No Pressure / Only Pleasure”:
Noises, hate, violence, screams, fights, couples torn apart, neighbors are amazingly loud all around us since months, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. It’s like fucking hell!

Hopefully I’ll feel better enough to record this song soon, but for the moment I really feel like the entire world is walking on my face.

Shooting by myself (again), myself (again), for our new music video “No pressure / Only pleasure”, in the lovely countryside of l’Île de France…. It’s gonna be Black & White Hippy power!

Soon soon soon bunnies!

Dear friend Arnaud Aruni Goldstein surprised us yesterday night by sending us this very realistic picture of us. It s so amazing the way he read us, also when you know he came to our flat just once. This drawing is just crazy, you can see our Tetsuo as a bunny angel (RIP my love), our Yuki with her giant ears, my fav bags, ring, belt & shoes, our sunglasses collection, our Potion of Love, the Japanese Teddy bear I won in Tokyo and it s sista, our microphone with Japanese scotch on it, our everything on the wall & our ” Japan Lovers” letters from our music video. But hey, no need to come home to know our flat, everything is in the video! Watch it here:

Love hurts / Still burning

Working on a new/old song that tells about our “love in pain” but how we’ll be burning for it until the end of our tiny lifes.

Hopefully we’ll be done very soon & we’ll share it in few days… I said HOPEFULLY.

Oooooh yeah …. And we’re making you a beautiful short video as well..!

Our new song, The Swimming Pool, tells the story that traumatized my grand-ma for years, ‘cause that day she didn’t take a good care of me:

Summer of my 3rd birthday,
As I woke up from my afternoon nap, I took a look through the window to spy on the blue swimming pool. As I seemed invisible to the grown ups, I decided to sneak outside by myself to catch up my duck rubber ring floating on the bright shining water.
Of course I drowned…
