The new wave beats of Globally acclaimed Swedish synthpop group, Kite will feature in an upcoming ‘Short film’ by Kerouac’s Dog Magazine.
The film, scheduled for release early in the new year, will tell the story of Kerouac’s Dog magazine from conception through to its inaugural issue earlier in the year and beyond. It will also feature many of the incredibly talented contributors who’ve featured in the print-only, ad-free creative magazine – inspired by Jack Kerouac and the 1950s Beat Generation, and featuring new writing, new design, and new photography from the creative underground.
Kerouac’s Dog Magazine says:
“It’s a coming together of everyone who’s been a part of the first 4 issues, and a celebration of everything we’ve achieved so far, and have yet to achieve in the year ahead…2012 is going to be a very exciting year for Kerouac’s Dog and its contributors. We’ve always been massive fans of Kite, and we’re delighted they’ve allowed us to use their music as an integral part of the film.”
A spokesman from Kite‘s Record Label, Progress Productions said “The guys are happy and excited to be part of this, and are looking forward to seeing the final film.”
The group composed of Christian Berg (The April Tears) and Nicklas Stenemo (Melody Club) originate from Malmo and are now based in Stockholm. Their eponymous debut EP Kite was met with Global acclaim, and they were compared to classic 1980s synthpop acts like Erasure and Yahoo. The latest EP Kite III was lauded for its original sound by Side-Line and the German Sonic Seducer, the latter marking a darker tone in this release.
Kerouac’s Dog Magazine added “Kite have such an incredibly unique, emotional sound, we think its gona fit in really beautifully with the film.”
