They not only play conventional instruments (guitars, keyboards and drums) but also theremin, circuit-bent toys and vintage synthesizers among others. So far, they have released two Albums, nine EPs, nine Singles, and two video-clips. They are currently working in new material. In 2006 they won the Argentine bands/soloists contest "Vale por un video Clip" for the song "Arcoiris en un ojo",[2] organized by FM La Tribu, Buenos Aires, Argentina. The judge were Tom Lupo (Argentine radio host, poet and psychologist), Guillermo Pintos[3] (Rolling Stone Argentina magazine at the time) and MTV Latin America VJ and Ruth Infarinato, the prize was the filming of a video-clip to the winning song. The video clip was made by Cine Humus,[4] and won Best Video clip at "Festival de Audiovisuales de La Plata"[5] English actress Emma Kennedy once suggested "Autumn Freaks" as song of the day in her blog.[6] They performed a live session at Balcony TV- London[7] in August 2009 where they played an unusual toy based set up.
