I'm Wolfgang. My brother Benjamin and I just recorded a new record. It's called Typewriter. We're raising funds to print the CDs.

My name is Wolfgang. My brother Benjamin and I write music together. We recorded some last year and some more this year. Our friends help us by playing their instruments while Benjamin records them. Then he puts it all together and twists some knobs and makes magic, like the way beautiful

handkerchiefs are tied together and keep coming out of a frayed black tuxedo sleeve. Or like the way people believe in things even though not everyone else does.

We have a new record now. It’s called Typewriter. We think it's really good.
