If their collaboration is a surprise, the increasing buzz surrounding the duo is not. They have been turning heads since their first project together, a music video for dead cab for cutie. What began as a hair-brained idea on a drunken road trip trough mexico evolved into a story about a young couple?s last day together. The vid was selected for inclusion in resfest 2003 and landed them on the roster of partisan.


Soon after joining partisan, josh and xander made a video for the postal service?s break-out hit, ?such great heights?. A love affair set in a microchip factory, the promo was again a resfest winner and mvpa nominee. The duo?s name recognition led to commercial assignments.
