Friday, October 17th, 2008

It is Friday today, the weekend has almost already started and we are at the last day of The Efterklang Gift Week. As this is the farewell to the Gift Week we have a lot of stuff for you today.


First we present to you a remix of First Floor Power´s God Damn Your Fingers. The remix is made by Casper Clausen from Efterklang and this might be his first official work ever in his own name!

Then next we have two videos!
A new video for Doppelgänger from our album Tripper (2004) and a video for Mimeo from our album Parades (2007). The last one has been online for some time but we never presented it properly as it truly deserve. Please enjoy the videos we think they are brilliant both of them.

DAY 3 - Efterklang Gift Week - NEW VIDEO!!!

Wednesday, October 15th, 2008

Hello friend and a very happy Wednesday to you!
It is Day 3 of our Gift Week and today we have something very special for you! It is a new music video for our song Cutting Ice To Snow made by Jeremiah Zagar and Herzliya Films from New York.

Jeremiah is currently riding a wave of acclaim and success for his documentary film In a Dream. The film uses Efterklang music and that is how and why this video developed. The material used in the video is deleted scenes and extra material for the documentary. We really like this video! It is very uplifting and different at the same time. We hope you will like it too!

ENJOY!
