ANTYTILA have presented their work in collaboration with a famous British band Clean Bandit.

The video and song created in collaboration with the Grammy owner – the Clean Bandit band. The representatives of the British band contacted ANTYTILA and offered to join the International project within which they had to create their own version of a famous song in Ukrainian. ANTYTILA have accepted, and the two bands have united for a music experiment in Ukraine.

It should be noted that ANTYTILA’S fans were the first to observe the video and song «Symphony» (TBRG Open x Clean Bandit – Official Cover) on May 25, during a massive gig at Lviv Arena having started the stadium tour «Hello» across the cities of Ukraine. Almost 20 000 people having gathered at the stadium appreciated the work with tremendous applause.

The ANTYTILA band have brought national colours with their arrangement having added Ukrainian music instruments and Ukrainian lyrics to the song by Clean Bandit.

«It was an interesting experience of working with a world level artist for us. There were some kind of difficult details as we’re divided by a great distance, and sometimes it was hard to communicate quickly. The main thing is that we’ve always made all our creative decisions by ourselves, and this time we needed to coordinate everything with our creative partners. But in the end everything was okay. I’m sure that our version of the song will be liked by millions of fans,» – gave his comment the leader of the band Taras Topolia.

ANTYTILA have presented the video on the song «LEGO», the main official soundtrack for the new movie by «Квартал 95» studio «Я, ти, він, вона» (‘Me, You, Him, Her”), planned to be released on New Year’s Eve 2019. After the successful short-length videos «TDME» and «Лови момент» (‘Lovy moment’ / ‘Seize the moment’) with strong sense, the ANTYTILA band have presented their fans a dynamic and bright work «LEGO». The band’s creative work is closely related to cinematography. Most tracks have become soundtracks to movies or TV series. The new song «LEGO» is one of such tracks.

«I can give plenty of details and tell of how we had been inventing and building decorations for the video, of how we had been threading our way through ship staging to get a friend of ours, a gaffer Rostyslav from another shooting inside a rusty ship to urgently discuss the scheme of locating lighting equipment at our filming set. But all these stories pale in comparison to how passionately Zelenskyi was spinning the wheel just in the frame! In that moment, I realized that he really liked the song much. I’d also like to add from myself that the song “Lego” is not just a soundtrack to the comedy drama «Я, Ти, Він, Вона». This song is about our country going through its likely the most dramatic period of its history. Close your eyes and imagine the people from east and west of it keep singing it to each other. And somewhere inside their hearts, despite all the quarrels each one’s eager to build our common broken construction set the way it would bring peace and calmness..» commented the frontman of the band Taras Topolia.

Another fact is that it was the first time when the sixth member of the ANTYTILA band Maksym Syvolap, a composer, a co-author, and a friend of ours, took part in the shooting.

After the success of the song and videos (official and lyric ones) «TDME» the ANTYTILA band present the second work from the upcoming album «Hello» – «Лови момент (‘Lovy moment’ / ‘Seize the moment’)».
The video «Seize the moment» is based on sincerity and from the beginning till the end is soaked with metaphors – in the manner of ANTYTILA. Human relations became the main message of the video – wholeness and unity – what humans can’t survive on the Earth without.
This time there are no actors or performances. The musicians have presented their families to the wide audience for the first time. The leader Taras Topolia has appeared on the screens with his wife Olena (a famous singer Alyosha) as well as all the other members of the band with their relatives.
«This time we thought it could possibly be something ordinary, shot in the studio during one or two days, but the answer was No. We were talking a lot about how we could come across the idea of the song through the video, so that we wouldn’t fail, and during these discussions the idea of trek appeared. It became clear at once that this story would depict the real human relations. Because no one goes trekking with dastards, we go trekking with those we can lean on, especially if it is a hard trek», Taras Topolia said.
The musicians marked this video as technically difficult and the most expensive of all times of ANTYTILA. The shooting was taking place for 10 days. The members of the band have completed the most difficult walking tourist route of Ukraine, moreover, when it was raining a lot. The shooting crew of twenty people have walked up along the river Chornyi Cheremosh – these are the wilds of the Carpathians, the Chyvchynski mountains located near the frontier zone of Romania. It’s worth mentioning that because of the weather the crew had to set for the shooting to the remote area twice.
