Prog supergroup O.R.k – featuring ex-Porcupine Tree bassist Colin Edwin, vocalist LEF, King Crimson’s Pat Mastelotto, and Carmelo Pipitone – have teamed up with Italian singer Elisa for their new video for Consequence, which you can watch here.
The track is taken from the quartet's latest studio album Screamnasium, which was released last year through Kscope.
“Elisa was introduced to us by a mutual friend in the film industry who Lef had canvassed whilst he’d been trying to think of a suitable female vocalist to duet with on Consequence," explains bassist Edwin. "I wasn’t consciously familiar with Elisa at first until I remembered the Django Unchained movie. Elisa is a huge star in Italy and also from a different world musically speaking, so she wasn’t an obvious choice but she was very positive about the song and has made a fantastic contribution."
As well as appearing on the band's most recent album, Consequence is also slated to appear on a yet to be announced feature film scored by O.R.k. vocalist LEF.
“When the main character of this feature film gets sick and seems to become mentally ill, she seems to develop what looks like an incredible (almost mystic) new ability," the singer says. "While the connection between our piece Consequence and this sort of truth/illusion dualism seemed to be quite obvious, I found the additional strings layers as the missing flavour to make it sound consistent with the rest of my orchestral score too."
O.R.k. begin a European tour later this month which includes appearances at both the Eindhoven and London Prognosis Festivals.(Source: www.loudersound.com)
