Carli Löf and Måns Glaeser both spent the greater parts of their teenage years sneaking around in the shady backstreets of their hometown of Stockholm, looking for unexplored graffiti terrain. Frequently bumping into each other in dark alleys and closed subway stations, the youngsters soon discovered a common obsession with cheezy hooks, bouncy beats and fat basslines. This was in the early nineties, when Carli was busy trying to copy Liam Howlett?s early productions with the primitive sampler he had just bought, while hip hop head Måns was busy getting into trouble in Sweden?s finest music high school. Today, Carli and Måns are busy composing fast-paced, elegant and generally ridiculous dance music in their shared studio, and enjoying some well-deserved international success, as a duo as well as on their own, with Måns being the driving force behind some of the hottest parties in Stockholm over the last years, and Carli being one of Sweden?s most in-demand remixers. However, it is when these old graffiti buddies work together as Savage Skulls that their talents really shine through. Having already released an EP on Switch's Dubsided label, and remixes for Moby, Crookers, Dada Life and Jesse Rose, Savage Skulls are making a name for themselves on the production front. Stay tuned for an exciting 2010 that will see them releasing an EP on Mad Decent with Douster and vocals by Robyn, as well as unveiling a brand new collaborative project with Crookers called Dr. Gonzo, plus a new 12" for Dubsided.
