Apskaft's Battleship Potemkin is online


In Apskaft we decided one year ago to rebuild Battleship Potemkin soundtrack. Things floated in limbo until last autumn, when we reached to split movie in scenes - still not a real taxonomy :D, but enough to start - and random assign parts. I offered myself as video editor, so in end of october the project started, actually.

This is my part:



I finished to mount final movie on 13 february, and we uploaded it on Youtube (HD 1080p) and Internet Archive (640x360) the day after, so 14 february is the official release date.


We also released the album as usual on Last.FM and this time also on Internet Archive.

The Wanderer track on Dandelion Radio show july schedule



The schedule for this month's show on Dandelion Radio (with its special Apskaftian section) is now available http://www.dandelionradio.com/schedule.htm. Playing almost daily through July.

The aforementioned apskaftian section is an experiment by Greg Healey (see HealeyIsland; also member of Apskaft collective). He asked if someone would create on purpose a track for his Dandelion radio show with these boundaries:

  • Each song must be exactly 3 minutes in length.
  • The songs must be an original Apskaftian interpretation of POP MUSIC.
  • All songs must be original material. No cover versions.

I joined the project with The Wanderer from The Wanderer EP.

The results will be analyzed in Greg's show second part.
Pay attention: schedule is in british summer time, so UTC +1

Complete Control is ready

I finished yesterday afternoon (and sent to Lurholm) my track for last Apskaft covers compilation, it's Complete Control by Clash.

I followed more or less the original hooks as usual, and modified, enlarged, shrinked, cutted away parts 'til the result is barely similar to original song.

Briefly, it's composed by three movements: first one reminds Kim Thayil workout, the second is circus sludge, then third is a sudden turn to a latin with Trent D'Arbyesque vocals, and back to the first two movement.
