Tidbits from the synthersisradio audio interview:

• A soon to be released dvd of the fantomas melvins bigband
• A Summer release for the Mondo Cane album
• Mike performs most of the stuff for the A Perfect Place OST. He brought in a couple of percussionists and a couple of horn players but most was done with his keyboard and samples
