Rupert Lally Deconstructs Electronic Soundtrack

Near Extinction premieres in the Scottish Woods   29-Sep-14

It seems the union of short films and electronic music is going strong at the moment, what with Tara Busch's I Speak Machine performance recently at London South Bank (see sonic talk 375 and 376). We've just been contacted by NoStudio  - a production company involved in the making of Espen J Jorgensen and Rupert Lally's collaborative experimental film Near Extinction which premiered in The Dark Oustide event Galloway Forest Dark Skies Park last weekend.

Its an interesting concept, with tracks submitted from  artists online and broadcast in a forest during a 24 hour period, using micro-transmitters. The film was also premiered there this weekend.

The soundtrack to the film was created by electronic artist Rupert Lally, in collaboration with filmmaker Espen J Jorgensen. The track titled "The Basement Upstairs" - featured on Rupert and Espen's atmoshperic  17 track album Stillium Partita is deconstructed in this short video:
