The idea to present the TRASHINME-project as a whole band was born in the late 2007 - based on the invitation from Claudio Corleno to italians summer rock festival in verona, and the interest from Los Angeles based A+R company arselect in offering a labelcontract to TRASHINME for 2008. A band had to come out from nowhere - at least for the live gig. Some valuable musicvideo for promotion activities had to be produced, speedy - that was as easy as it still is, supported by Oli`s company www.xactFILM.com. While Oli had already recorded and produced all songs, some friends had to join the videoproduction immediately. So, there are great appearances by r+b singer Shari Callista (www.myspace.com/sharicallista), who is, apart from Oli, the only person giving her vocal skills on "devil`s gift", "Mr. Mad Ray" (www.mad-ray.de), a longtime friend, Stefan Heerdt, Torsten Pitz and drummer Sandor Oellig, who knows Oli since his childhood. All musicvideos can be seen via sat and cable at europeans tv-station turkShow - and on lots of internet stages for videos. Concerning TRASHINME still as Oli`s psychofun-project, neither the live gig nor the labeldeal could be commited because of Oli`s working schedule for 2008. As an "alternative" to an independent labeldeal, which in the end mostly remains not profitable because of insufficent money for promotion, Oli`s company founded a cd-label, called xactRECORDS, to bring TRASHINME`s third and upcoming cd to the (small) market. But now, enjoy the videos, first of all, the "making-of" of the actual clip called "Devil`s gift".Lots of emails have been written and some controversial discussions on the net and at the guestbook appeared. Check it yourself, probably you feel it`s true derivation - an ironical selfportrait:
