Kleptones join Swarm of Angels film project


The Kleptones, a band of legendary illegal remix artists, have signed on to produce the music for the Swarm of Angels project, which I blogged about on Friday. The Swarm of Angels project will produce a £1,000,000 picture funded by 50,000 "angels" who each donate £25 and participate in script-doctoring, pre- and post-production, and promotion for the film. The Angels are being invited in batches — first 100, now 1,000, next 5,000, 25,000 and 50,000. The 1,000 Swarm is still open, but filling up fast (membership more than doubled over the weekend).

I'm an advisor to the project, as is comics genius Warren Ellis, and Tommy Pallotta (A Scanner Darkly) is signed as producer. Adding the Kleptones to the project is a major coup, as their work is second to none for amazing, danceable, subversive remix.
