When I first received the CD Plugged from Dalton of Skulk:Partition[Root] I couldnt stop listening to it. We played a few tracks on the last show, but I had a hard time selecting them. I wanted to play tracks that would give the listener an idea of what they are all about, but the sound is just so dynimac, you really need to listen to the whole CD to really appreciate it.
This is the show I should have done 6 months ago, all the tracks I wanted to play, a short interview, and a video!
I hope you enjoy it.
Jon: Other than what’s in the bio on your site, anything else your want the world to know?
Dalton: First of all we'd like to thank you Jon, for the interview and playing our songs in your show, it's really amazing.
Well, we're glad to be part of this band, we use it as a scape valve to express our deepest feelings and experiences.
Machines are awesome on this process, they never forget, they are good listeners and they make possible everything we want.
Jon: Plugged was not originally released as a free download, what made you decide to make it a free download?
We made it free one year later from it's release. The scenario for independent bands is hard. If you don't have a big label helping you, it's hard to get popular. We just figured out we could reach more people making it free and downloadable (Click here for the CD download) Even this way we still sell CDs via internet, shows and some stores here in Brazil and some countries on Europe. People who really enjoy the band wants the CD.
Jon: What are you working on now?
Dalton: Right now we are working to spread our first videoclip, released last august. Recently we got it available on the Brazilian's MTV website, MTV Overdrive. It's a simple video but we are very happy with the final result, our thanks to Jorge Takan, the director.
Besides we're testing some new sounds, more powerfull synths, new softwares, etc. There is nothing concrete, there are few ideas emerging for a new work.
Jon: What and when can we expect some more?
Dalton: It's really hard to predict it! We're on a creative process, so we don't really know how long would it take.
This year we released a "new" work, a cover for Cyndi Lauper's Shebop song (availabe at http://www.myspace.com/skulkpartitionroot). I said "new" in double brackets because we play this song from a long time on the show. This cover should be part of Plugged, but we decided to not put it on the CD for copyright reasons.
