Music for One Apartment and Six Drummers

In my youth i used to play in bands and make music, and my pals and bands we played in loved to explore, and to play together on whatever we could find, in house, city or nature; and many times we have played music on kitchen or bathroom stuff like characters in this brilliant little movie; the difference being that we were improvising and just jamming, usually spaced-out on weed; while the "band" in this movie clearly plays exact and precisely thought-out and rehearsed pieces, additionally wrapped in a tight and razor-sharp 10-minute plan.

Well, we were Balkanians, and they're Swedes, so i guess it figures.

The music they produce "out of stuff" in 4 rooms of a house is surprisingly good; a solid and sensible percussion (and not only percussion) groove, and it will draw at least a smile on face of any musician worth his name. The greatest advantage of the film is its concept - a 'game' of playing music on stuff found around house - because it allows for many great little ideas; and authors came up with surprisingly many; majority of them being surprising and funny in their own little ways.

Add to this good little mock-thriller wrapper story of a break-in; add great execution from actors/musicians; add solid editing and direction, and you have probably one of the best exactly-ten-minutes-long films ever.

Apart from 'those obsessed with order' (as some clearly non-musician commentors have suggested), this film will also resonate with:

* All musicians everywhere (including those who aren't ones yet, but should be; and excluding those that are, but shouldn't be) * All fans of good groove in funk and electronica * All who can feel groove in any kind of music * All fans of good short film with a good idea and great execution * Admirers of creativity in general.
