18 questions with the TWO LONE SWORDSMEN


Do you have any kind of working/studio daily routine? Or is this something you're fighting to keep out of?
Our whole working day depends on the availablity of the Irish Air Force and its strike capability

What's your most recent disgracful behaviour?
Playground narcotic distribution

How do you go about titling tracks?
We use an ACME Track Titler

What's your favourite TLS remix so far? Why?
Daniel O'Donnell 'The Money and The Kudos'

Favourite DJ of the moment?
DJ Pish and DJ Shite (Club 69, Paisley)

Can you dance?
Only if unhindered by lumpy mixing, or the scratch spastiks are throwing down!

When you get offered a remix would it bother you if it was only offered because of the sales you're name/repuation will generate and not your ability?
Saying no to such an offer is never a problem.

If The Sun offered you enough cash to run Emissions without ever needing to think about cash for the next 5 years in return for letting them use "Azzolini" or a TV advert what would you say?
Wouldn't even answer the phone

Ian Weatherall has appeared out of nowhere. Do you swap tracks and any hopes of a Oasis type working relationship/collaboration?
We could never sound like the Rutles

Do you ever feel overrated?
Yes, but unlike some I call my own bluff.

What was your last argument about? Who won?
Ted Nugent, last American freedom fighter or survilalist Nazi? Sadly the Mormon that posed it.

You turned down U2's offer of a remix, I heard, why?
Best ask Bongo

b) it saves on paperwork

Glad to be on Warp or is it just someone to put out your music?

Why did you start Emissions? was it easy? How did you go about it?
