It’s pretty long, and a collection of last 5 days of the Iron Sky demo, but I think it pretty well describes on the last hellish moments at the office before the teaser is out.

Meanwhile, the teaser has been doing very well. We’ve reached the 200000 views on YouTube, and 100000 on Iltalehti, and 50000 on Twitch, and some on Helsingin Sanomat, although we don’t know how much there. So approximately 350000-400000 views on Iron Sky demo in 5 days, that’s not bad. Also, we’ve been swamped with contacts from all over the world, all the way to Hollywood. So we could say that the demo did much more than we expected :)

Anyway, check out the season finale of Energia Dailies episode 1, and we’ll be back with Energia Dailies episode 2 - Wrecking Cannes in May 13th - so stay tuned!

They’ve released a new album again - and this time completely for free. And even better, it’s licenced under a Creative Commons attribution non-commercial share-alike license. It’s a bunch of big words, but basicly means you can share the album with your friends, remix and sample to your hearts content as long as it’s not for commercial purposes and you let others do the same to the stuff you create.

To quote a finnish commercial. “That’s pretty fair”.

And yes, we’re going to do the same with the Iron Sky teaser if you’re wondering. But the remix pack will be released bit later, simply because we need some time to put it together.

We’re sitting at the office and propably will be until late tomorrow. But it seems we’re on schedule and spirits are high right now.

But that for situation raport. We just took a little break and discussed finnish music we like. And general consensus was that Jumala by Apulanta is a good song, even if you don’t like the band. There’s also a great video for the song, made by Ihmiskunnan Ainoa Toivo. They’re one of the most interesting amateur film groups in Finland. Though the movies they make are pretty much the complete opposite of Star Wreck. The unfortunate side effect is that they are not very populist, they’re not the kind of short films people generally watch on the internet. Their films are small, personal stories and in finnish. But check out the video for Jumala below.
