"Mixing Business with Pleasure" explores the worlds of punk, no-rave, electro, booty house and experimental rock. They reference many elements of queer history and the artists who inspire them. The album was recorded and produced by KIDS ON TV in Toronto between 2003 and 2006 on a busted laptop and two microphones. The album was mastered by the amazing Larry Kramer, founder of Shimmy Disc (Galaxy 500, GWAR et.al). Includes video for Breakdance Hunx.
