After a few months of producing together they signed a deal with Dutch label, Sadie Records, they began to enter into the market and gain success. This gave the duo a boost and they started to produce two/three tunes a week.

Charlie Don't Surf

There has been more than one artist with the name Charlie Don't Surf. The name is taken from something said by the character Lieutenant Colonel Bill Kilgore, played by Robert Duvall, in the 1979 movie 'Apocalypse Now'. The most recent rendition of Charlie Don't Surf is a 3 piece instrumental band from Muncie, Indiana, who in 2005 released the album 'kvalitetsstøy', a kind of post-rock, math rock venture with hypnotic cool repetitive interludes interspaced with parts of complex and jarring convolutedness, and occasional diversions into rocking out and making a bit of a noise.
