Stefan Jungmair and Paul Schneider have already proved most unlikely selectors, whipping both chin strokers and dancefloor types into a frenzy with their eponymous debut in 2000.

Punk Rock marked the start of our music careers“ says Paul. To this day they thank the punk spirit for a healthy skepticism toward the cocky virtuoso types.
