For this weeks edition I thought I´d try something a little different from the first three postings.

Stavanger Vocal Ensemble is chamber choir founded in 1993. The choir consists of around 30 experienced vocal artists performing material in a wide range of genres, everything from classical to folk and jazz. The group participated in several large scale productions during Stavanger, European Capital of Culture 2008.

For this special performance in the streets of old Stavanger 21 singers presented the song "Vogel".

Gerilja #4 - Stavanger Vocal Ensemble from Kai Arne Soot on Vimeo.

Grey Filastine is a musician/producer based in Barcelona but rarely found there. Among his 60+ gigs last year you might have caught him at a club in London, on a junk raft floating down the Mississippi river, at Shambhala festival in Canada, at a tiny breakcore party in Osaka, or in front of forty thousand at the hiphop festival Boulevards in Casablanca.

In any context it gets riotous- Filastine bangs out his music, jumping between a tangle of electronics, acoustic percussion, and an amplified shopping cart, firing off riddims and synchronized live video.

The video for his newest release, Singularities, clearly shows that anyone turning up to this years Numusic is in for quite a treat, both visually and musically...

It seems keeping a weekly update on the Gerilja-project has proven to be a challenge.

But no matter.. This weeks video features the raw power that is the sound of Phat. A trio of guitar, drums and an agressive screamo-vocal pushing you to the ground. The song is entitled "Kid on the Barbie".
