this is very very very special, we have 2 say. due to some cosmical shifts and movements we ran into FEFE, Sao Paulo / Brazil… actually due 2 the myspace jungle. She is a very talented and gifted streetartist, who swims on the same soundwave & -length as we do. Fefe just threw this wonderful piece pon the wall over in Sao Paulo. Al-Haca traveling through the air…
...fefe and al haca..

Check out her myspace website and see her shining!

On Jan 27th we were invited to come and play in Brussels again…Recyclart is the spot! Big up to Marc and all Recyclart crew. Respecc goes out to Joshua (BE) & FBC FABRIC / REINDEER (UK) – wicked show…nuff pressure…way to go.
...pressure..

In fact: we had some technical weirdness going on, but nuff people enjoyed the soundwaves coming. They like it crunk over there. And the venue is amaizing… hope 2 see ya all soon again.

...pressure..

just a pitty we always fly out in the early early morning. Pisses us off… third time within a year we played there, but never really sow Brussels…still love this town!

yipi, this was family family family biz…. our friends from Dub Universe invited Al-Haca’s RQM, MCC and Selecta PeHle to rock the wonderful DESI venue… before chopping up we had 2 eat of course. And were do the Al-Haca boys eat inna Nuremberg? At Brigitte’s Gasthaus BRAUN fi sure fi sure. She is an angle. Yammy Yammy! Delicious as always…. and a great dancer 2.

...love is in the air....

Al-Haca incl. Selecta PeHle pretty much perfromed as an Allnigther w/ a nice nice warm up by Mao’s Rache Soundsystem. It was a magic night with lotz of magic dancers grinding and grinding … Best Al-Haca gig in 2006 so far, we gotta say. Hope 2 see ya’ll soon again, fam.

what a nice start into 2ohohsick… al haca triple release party, ütz’s earth ft dunlok backson as song of the week on bbc’s breezeblock, a bunch of wondedrful reviews, ütz: pick of the week in our favorite nyc recordstore halcyon/brooklyn. hmmm. yes, it went well so far…in fact: it went very well. ..

...dem bwoyz. straight family biz, me tellin ya

Greifswalds IKUWO venue was packed out… a pitty that alotta people missed the LIVE shows (TOLCHA & AL-HACA) … The White Dress cranked it too and our man Morgan was amaized that people even danced to his crazy beatz, but hey… this is Greifswald…anything possible here. Due to police trouble we had to keep the volume kinda down but people still dancin – hungry for that twist. Shirkan spinnin, Tolcha’s Rasda even spinnin, BIRD spinnin, Al-Haca’s MCC & PeHle spinnin, even Angelika spinnin… so we had enough DJs for the night (and early morning… music was off at 7.00) A wonderful official Triple Release Party (3 platters: 1×12” on Metapolyp + 1 7” on Metapolyp + 1×7” on Bomb Mitte = Triple BOOOOMYA) and an inofficial Good Bye Party, cause Al-Haca’s MCC is leaving Greifswald… off to Vienna. So it was kinda emotional if u know what I mean. This is family. So we gotta say Thank You to IKUWO people, Ostudio crew, Transform Berlin Daniel & Gabi for their visual input/output, all friends/family for showin up and jammin with us (Noelle and Jenny from Headquarters, Brigitte…hmmmm Birnenschnaps) our musical brothers Tolcha & The White Dress and of course all the people who showed up and felt it…good vibes – Massive!

And what a nice surprise for the kick into 06: Al-Haca’s and Tolcha’s ÜTZ was Bomb of the week at BBC’s Breezeblock. Host Mary Anne Hobbs loves it…truly wonderful she said. Wow, thanks for the flower! 2006… hmmm, and not even a week is over and then such bangin’ feedback… we are still high on the Ütz review in UK’s Wire (check …posting) Mary Anne asked us if we could send more of them beats. Guess what we replied… pleasure!
