Prozzak Chat

Cartoon pop duo Simon and Milo of Prozzak spent some time chatting with their fans on AllPop.com on Friday, November 10. Read the full chat transcript.
Prozzak: Hi everyone! We'll be starting our Prozzak chat in about 10 minutes. Stand by.

ROYALE. ALEXANDRIA.GODFREY: ARE YOU GUYS GOING TOMAKE A MOVIE LIKE THE SPICE GIRLS?

Prozzak: Simon - Yes we are making a movie, it won't be like the Spice Girls...more like ummmm, a search for love that spans the ages. It will be released...someday in the future,

Pochacco: do you plan on coming to Calgary again anytime soon? if so, when?

Prozzak: We're definitely working on it. It's all up to this new technology - motion capture. They're a team of scientists working on it in the Netherlands right now.... they meet with the Nobel academy. Them they'll be ready to tour Calgary.

dez: Hi. When you make your next c.d. much, much later will you put your real pictures instead of just characters?? Please let me know. thanks

Prozzak: This is Simon, yes those are our real pictures! We are cartoons. Those aren't the greatest pictures cause I look better from the right.

Joel Mamchur: Hey Jay and James!, The new album seems to have a harder , more rock and punk like sou8nd to it . What influenced this? Thanks! -Joel

Prozzak: Milo - Actually, we spent six months in an airport hanger in Hamburg to master their use of the power chord in our own unique way.

Joel Mamchur: where your neck simon... j/k

Prozzak: Simon - I don't know, it's kind of like asking someone....I was born that way, there's a race of cartoons with no necks. I'm trying not to be offended.

Katie: Simon and Milo are totally awesome. I've never heard anyone as unique and delightful, but I have one question! Simon has experienced heart ache and break, but will he ever feel heart make? Or will he continue to search forever? I hope not. Simon and Milo are too good to waste!

Prozzak: Well, this is Simon. Only time will tell if I will mend my broken heart. I've had bad experiences but rumour has it we all have. I'm just going to give it my all and hope for the best. You can get chicks but can you get true love?

Sean (Dallas Texas): You mention Corfu and the Mediterranean in your songs, Is that area a fave holiday place of yours.

Prozzak: Milo - We love the Mediterranean like we love our own mothers. There's a certain quivering in your heart when you nestle in the breasts of the south.

Helen Budziak: Hey, American Prozzak fan waaaayy over there in Ohio. Are you guys EVER going to come down here??? C'mon, best band + Ohio=fun fun fun! Talk to ya soon. Biggest Ohio fan.

Prozzak: Simon - yes, we're going to come down to the States and tour sometime next year. We have a big release planned on our new record label in America. The album will come out in the States around March. The label is Hollywood Records.

~*~$h@nN0n~*~: The new cd looks great. How did u get the title for the album? Thanx :)

Prozzak: Milo - I consider myself a Saturday Person - ever since I first heard a house beat. A Saturday Person is someone who is not fulfilled by the everyday...and can only, truly unleash their true spirit on the weekend.

Heather Kaminski: Hey guys, first off I just wanted to tell you both that you guys rock my world and produce amazing music. I have both of your albums and consider them AWESOME! My question for the both of you is: Would either of you consider dating a fan? Why or why not?

Prozzak: Simon - Actually, we have a song about that on our next album called "When Fans Turn Into Lovers". This particular story has a tragic ending.

Nick K (damonsellars@prodigy.net): Simon, Does Milo ever interfere with your quest for the perfect woman?

Prozzak: Simon - yes but not intentionally. Milo is a very attractive man. Women find him irresistible. It's hard to be the sensitive lonely man in the shadows of sheer, blond, masculinity.

Jasmine: Hey Simon and Milo what's up? My question for you is how did you like working with Dan, Ryan and Ohad from b4-4? Thanks a lot!

Prozzak: Well, we actually didn't work with them, our creators did. They'd come up and discuss them with us. They're actually still in therapy.

Melvis: What is happening with the Philosopher Kings. We are tired of sitting around and waiting for news!

Prozzak: No news

Prozzak: Simon - errrrhhhhhh

Johnny Bou: Where do the basis of the new album's lyrics come from?

Prozzak: Simon - the basement of my soul. What was once furnished is now bare.

Joel Mamchur: You guys are in Sydney now , right? If so , were you there for the Olympics?

Prozzak: Aren't the Olympics over? Milo - I was helping to oversee the javelin. The highlight was the shot-put. That's one of my favourite activities back on my compound.

Carolyn: Do you like Britney Spears? Do you like N'SYNC? Can you please come to Regina or Saskatoon? You guys are so hot.

Prozzak: Simon - We have burger and fries in England too. We call them chips!!!!! We will go to Regina when we tour Canada.

Cameron: what is the best part about being able to make a second album?

Prozzak: Milo - The best part is that there's no firt-time jitters. Simon - There is a food budget! Catering baby catering. And there's an escape from the truth of loneliness.

julia robb: dear simon and milo I'm having a problem. there's this really cute guy but he moved away and I never got his email or nothing. I luv him and he luvs me. if you can help me please do! luv ya both. luv julia aka: sparkie

Prozzak: Simon - In our experience, those who spell love LUV are more likely to find true love than those who spell it the conventional way. We think you're on the right track but for more information at this topic, contact us at www.nevergetoveryou.com

Raichu: Simon do you ever have a crush on a red hair girl?

Prozzak: Simon - I have, in the past.

Daniel : Simon DO you actually have a scooter? if so what colour is it? and milo what kind of pants are you wearing now?

Prozzak: Yes, I have a scooter. It has a motor, it is powered by a jet engine. It is blue and orange. Milo - After stepping up my workout regime, my legs burst through my former pants so now I wear baggy pants, cargoes.

Kelly Louise: What is it like to be famous?

Prozzak: Milo - What is fame anyway? Is fame a few quick, fast friends in a night-club? Or is it a free milkshake? It's nice but it doesn't define happiness.

Cait: how old were you when you broke virginity?

Prozzak: Simon - 316 Milo - I'm waiting still! For the right woman.

Bryonny: What's your favourite colour?

Prozzak: Milo - puce Simon - off-white

Joel Mamchur: When and where do you write all of your songs? When do you feel inspired?

Prozzak: Simon - I like to live life to the fullest without any thought to creativity. Then, in one giant spurt of emotional relief, I video tape dreams and the next morning record everything in song. Milo - I psychoanalyse his dreams for the recording process. After talking with our trusted doctor, Kaplan

Tanya: How old are you guys!

Prozzak: Simon - 326 Milo - 327

Jody: HI. I wanted to know why you choose the name prozzak? I am a big fan of yours my favourite song is strange disease and my cousin April is too.

Prozzak: Simon - I found music had the effect of an anti-depressant. The decision to call ourselves Prozzak was obvious.

Joel mamchur: Hey Guys!, I noticed that the song Infatuation is on your new album The song was originally sent in by a fan for a contest . Where there any legal problems when putting the song on the album?

Prozzak: We had a contest, we picked a winner and the verse lyrics were written by Iris Frasier. No legal problems.

No1No1Fan: www.nevergetoveryou ... Simon, who will you never get over?

Prozzak: Simon - That song was written for a girl and I'm going to protect her identity. I had an online relationship and I never actually ended up meeting her. But we loved each other as much as two people can through words alone. And....my heart is breaking as we speak. (sniff, sniff)

Kara: I have Hot Show and Saturday People and I think both are great, but I wanna know, Do you feel a difference in sound in Saturday people compared to Hot Show/

Prozzak: Milo - Yes, I feel more swelling and less irritation with "Saturday People".

Stacey Weir-Gory: You seem to be so comfortable with who you are. Have you always been like that?

Prozzak: Simon isn't comfortable with who he is, otherwise he'd be happier. Milo - it takes a good 200-220 years to discover yourself. Thankfully, I outlived that.

Stacey Weir-Gory: Do you believe in Angels?

Prozzak: Simon - I believe in the angel of hope, that tucks me in and gives me the courage to face a new day to find my true love. Milo - Yes, I do believe in angles, my favourite is oblique

Matt: hi guys I like your new song usted es muy loco and i was wonder how you feel about napster and downloading songs for free?.........

Prozzak: Napster....it's clearly stealing. Just because it's easy doesn't mean it's right.\

Tanya: Do you guys ever fight?

Prozzak: Milo - Yes, Simon and I fought once. It wasn't so much a fight....but we learned that even the worst of enemies can resolve their differences if they think clearly and respect that which is different.

Prozzak: Since it's Saturday here in Australia things are a bit wild. And to all of our Canadian and American fans we will miss you, and we will be thinking of you as we are sipping our health shakes out at the club
