Last night on Wednesday, March 25, “Fight What” by Alexander was featured on an episode of The Real World Brooklyn. The electronic music in the first half of the clip is the end of “Fight What” and the intro for “Trust Me On This One.” This was a very exciting moment for both me and Ryan (Alexander). You can see the clip below or download the Quicktime file here. Note: I do not claim ownership or rights to this clip, which belong to MTV Networks/Viacom/Paramount.

Here’s an interview Ryan did over the phone during our last recording sessions. He talks about writing, recording, distribution, touring and of course, starving children.

It’s a great interview, but I thought I would point out that I completely disagree with him when he says “I know that anytime I try to raise my voice in any capacity to yell, I sound like I’m telling my dog to get off the couch.” There were a few times in the recording sessions when he would start to get really loud, and I thought, “this is what was missing from the last record.” I’m really glad we got some of that recorded.
