Check out our music video filmed with the Ultra High Def Red One camera. The fighters are the world champion kickboxer Dave Marinoble and opponent in the ring at his facility. Kudos to Marinoble and team. The director was Zaq Whitnack, 3 time emmy award winner. DP Eric Maddox and Whitnack pulled off a miracle on our indie budget. Kudos to both. They're the best. Kudos also to Jean Fox, for makeup and total winners circle help. This is our first video.

Our first video is out on www.singingfool.com this week as well as on our website at www.mimiandteft.com. Next Thursday it will be posted to youtube. We had the help of World Champion kickboxer Dave Marinoble, and Emmy award winning director, Zack Whitnack to help us get our indie act together with a big video touch. We had a great time doing it and are already planning a second video. We hope you enjoy it, and let us know what song you think we should use on the next one.

It's out! Started as a 5 song EP and grew up into a full album of pop-electronic dance tracks. Here's a first review of some of the songs:
Mimi and Teft are a dance/house duo who know how to pump out some sexy pop melodic tunes. Tracks like Fairy Tale (What I'm Saying) sound like they were born for a club dance floor with perfectly delivered vocal hooks and a nice combination of 'naked' synths. Have a listen and see if it doesn't stick in your head. There are also tracks like Chocolate off their debut EP 'Look Into The Mirror' which are more laid back and contemplative but retain the upbeat synth melodies whilst bringing out the soulful quality of Mimi's vocals which are perhaps best displayed in North Star.
On their website, M&T write about their technique of writing and mixing a song in one hour. To my ears this results in great clean mix that isn't over-produced. You can see a video of how they pull it off here. Not every track is a hit however, Wachu Wanna falls a little flat for me but that may well be because it sits on the more mainstream pop section of the music spectrum. But then you have songs like You Addicted Me which manages to bring a trance sensibility to a house track, a great combination.
Teft (Christopher Teft Hughes) also has some killer photography you should check out on his site or on flickr. I wonder how many music producers are also into photography? Haha, it's down to the hard wiring of the 'artistic' brain I'm sure.
After reading how Teft puts it all together I'm impressed at the sounds he's gotten out of Vanguard, I'll have to try my own hand at it. I don't think I could pull off a song in an hour, but with a vocalist like Mimi, the hooks write themselves.
Look out for these two, you are going to be hearing more from them in the future I'm sure.

If you happened to see CSI: New York on 10/24, that sexy little Second Life avatar was getting dressed to Delicious, our first 1 hour song!
Go CSI: New York and kudos to Crucial Music for the placement.
