Elmoro & Ungdomshuset

 

Pictures from when Outlandish performed and brought support for Ungdomshuset in Copenhagen. Here

Also saw exclusive interview with the guys today, with 20 seconds snip of the new Calling U video. The video is about a young couple who go through  a lot of everyday problems. The guys told that the song itself is about relationships between people, fx a mother and a son, a husband and a wife or a person and its God. The guys joked a lot and the interview was quite joyable to watch. The video is once again shot in Copenhagen because the guys feel that they themselves love the city and they want to show its beauty and look to their fans worldwide.

Redemption Song

Listen to the new version of Outlandish/Isam B production of Bob Marleys most known and respected song Redemption Song. Here. The original song of Bob Marley is personally one of the songs I love most in the world…….. Outlandish version I’m not that sure about yet, it’s very sweet and a bit to happy compared to the seriousness and hurt in Bob’s version. Still I really like the concept of mixing new Bob Marley songs from Outlandish site, he was and is still definately some for them. What do you think?

Hello I’m Aras or Sarah from Denmark, Copenhagen

This is year nr 7 I’m doing Outlandish-look and I keep doing it because I never get tired of Outlandish and their Universe. Music is an universal language as Waqas always says and he is truly right. I actually got Outlands Official by accident because my mother bought it for me and she just picked the CD because of the Hip-hoppish looking cover !

 In the beginning I only listen to Walou and didn’t really get any of the other songs and wasn’t feeling them either. But then I found the lyrics for Walou on the internet because I was borred in school, and then I started noticing the strange Spanish words and tried to found out what Walou was and meant. I quickly found a great interest in the lyrical universe and the 3 different interesting “outlandish” guys.

 Well I wanted to make a site for Outlandish first of all to spread their music and especially to help people who are not from Denmark, since I knew how little news you guys got from both Outland themselves and the news, which was all in Danish.

Seven years later and still going strong Aras

Help Outlandish write their new song!

 

One lucky person can help Outlandish write their new song, feature their new together with their classmates and go to a special release party for the song as well. The reason for all this is a new campaign in Denmark launced by Creative Ghetto and named “Drømme og Fremtid” (Dreams and Future). They got in contact with Outlandish and asked them if they would help them in a new campaign to the youngsters and kids, teaching them about the importance of picking and getting an education now a days.

The campaign is mainly a competition for all kids and young people between 12-19 years old. You simply just write a song you think represents “Education”, fx what you would like to be when you grow up and so on. But the song has to be in Danish, sorry guys – the winner is picked by Outland themselves on the 11th of February, and then you meet up with the guys and go to the studio, where winner and Outland together add music to the text/poem. The song itself will be released in March.

Outlandish support the Youth

Outlandish are one band among many others, who at the moment are supporting a youth club in Copenhagen. The youth club named Ungdomshuset (The House of Youth) have been the main reason to riots in the Danish streets the last weeks. The house have been sold by the commune and state, and now the young people don’t have a place to arrange their concerts, hang out or be creative at anymore. A religious group have bought the house instead and refuses to sell it to the youngsters who have been raised twice the price, the group bought it. It’s not only a question about a house anymore, now it’s a question about democracy, ideoligy and the will to fight for your rights. Outlandish have places themselves at the youngsters site and are playing a support concert together with The Gypsies on the 25th of January. Click here and here
