Spacewalk – The Indie Duo From Sweden Tweet Thursday, August 25, 2011The indie duo “Spacewalk” was formed & led by singer/songwriter Roozebelt since March 2006 when he was spending the last year at university. At this time, he invited his former band mate to join him to form the tight rock band that both of them had always dreamed of. In early August 2008, after writing & recording several songs & performing some private gigs, his friend was forced to leave the duo because of personal issues and a wave of new challenges came over Spacewalk. Spacewalk won his first international award: "Maybe Someday" was awarded as a finalist in a "Song of the Year" songwriting contest. When asked what inspired the song, he commented that, "Maybe Someday is just a beginning. It’s about writing new, distinctive & at the same time catchy & popular songs". Despite the severe problems, restrictions & difficulties imposed by a fanatic system of medieval "king nothings", Spacewalk kept on moving forward. Private recordings and even more private gigs made Spacewalk prepared for a bigger change. "We’ll keep on playing our music even if it makes ‘em angrier." In February 2009, Spacewalk released its debut EP Your Rainbows After My Acid Rain independently. It was released in physical format on a limited scale and then had a digital release available on iTunes, Rhapsody, AmazonMP3, Napster & some other Digital Music Stores. When even a more stupid government turns up, you can see all your efforts going down the tubes. It was time to move and start somewhere else. "I’m not stuck with what I got anywhere but inside my head." Music has changed but maybe not so much. That’s the way Spacewalk likes it and keeps it: Alternative, Acoustic and Trip Hop with a pale splash of Electronica in a semi-experimental atmosphere. Currently a new EP is being acoustically recorded and is set to be released in 2011. Their song “Placebo Effect” won the R&R World weekly podcast poll on our competitions’ Facebook page and will appear in this week’s episode of ArenaCast. Do not miss it!Comments
