RUNNING WILD Bassist Collaborates With Members Of THE RUGGED: Audio Available

August 10, 2004

RUNNING WILD bassist Peter Pichl has collaborated with THE RUGGED's Jóse Juan Gallego and Juan Antonio Soria on a song called "The Reason Around". The track was pieced together entirely via the Internet, with Peter and the other guys completing the arrangements and exchanging the recordings through e-mail. Download the song: MP3 (6.7 MB),WAV (58 MB).

Commented Peter: "This is a song I had the idea for it about three years ago and recorded it as a sketch to keep it in mind. Then I had the idea to ask Ulver if he would like to help me to work it out as a real song and if maybe Juan Antonio, the singer of THE RUGGED, would like to do the vocals on it. I sent him the sketch with my 'pilot' guitars and vocals and a file with drums and bass only, and told him, that I would imagine some heavy guitar noises in the beginning and that they can feel free with the vocals (what I did on the sketch wasn't very imaginative). Well, and what I received some time later of them .... Isn't it great?!! This was done over a distance of 2500 km and sounds like a band playing live on stage . Maybe this will encourage some of you to do similar things with friends. And beside all this, it's a nice new experience for me to see, that it's possible to become real good friends by writing each others letters via e-mail."
