Sweatshop (Summer remix featuring Dé Palmeira) for De Staat

Hi,

As promised, a new track! It's a remix for Dutch group De Staat for their radio-hit Sweatshop. We got the idea to make it into a summerly bossa-nova popsong. Dé Palmeira, our friend from Rio de Janeiro put together a few bossa-style loops, played bass and that great nylon guitar. He's a master. That added to our KOKOS-flavor made frontman Torre from De Staat so happy, he decided to put it on his blog Ghostnotes. It's a weblog with B-sides from De Staat and other collaborations he's been working on. We are honoured to be featured on there. Go to his site Ghostnotes, listen to our track and subscribe to his newsletter. You won't be dissapointed.

Have fun with our remix and share with your friends please! It's the start of summer, so you better start dancing!

Have a good one!
Marcel, Johan and Dé

new website

It's been a while, we weren't missed.. only by few people. BUT we get out of our deep sleep every once in a while to do something nice. We will have some news coming up about a track we did that is gonna be 'published" on the internet for you to enjoy. We've been working on this off and on these last few months. A remix takes time to digest, to grow and we are lazy asses :)

There are plans to start working again on KOKOS. See where it leads us, what it brings. Main purpose; fun, getting together and make beautiful music. We've added Dé Palmeira from Rio de Janeiro to the clan. He will be showing up in our tracks a lot, giving us that South-American flavor :)
Our coming release will have all that, so wait.... it'll be here soon!
