Hot Aches, the media company behind the award winning E11, the film about Dave MacLeod's ascent of Rhapsody, are well underway filming their latest epic Committed, that will feature some of the hardest and best trad' climbs in the UK.

So far in the can they have:

James Pearson on the first ascent of 'The Promise' E10

Dave MacLeod on the classic 'Divided Years' E10?

Dave MacLeod's repeat of 'Blind Vision' E10

Katherine Shirrmacher on 'Balance It Is' E7

James Pearson's 2nd ascent of 'Trauma' E9

They will continue filming throughout the summer but have already started the hard work of editing the footage they have so far. E11 has a great soundtrack featuring a wide range of music genres from rap to folk. They are now appealing to the climbing community and beyond asking for musical submissions for Committed.

If you are a musician or know of any bands that would be interested in contributing, or just want to make suggestions for the sort of music that you want to hear in a climbing film get in touch with Hot Aches by emailing, Paul Diffley, pauld@hotaches.com.

So if you are looking for actual musicians, can I assume there will not be any E11 style "rap" on this film? Maybe I'll buy this one after all!

I wonder how many people on here actually do music production... I do, but im not very good, and tend to start a track get 75% through it, loose interest, then a week later, start another one, still if anyone wants about 50g of unfinished tunes they are welcome to em! ;-)

yeah. I spent the best part of a year recording an album for my band. (review here) http://www.punk4life.co.uk/cdvinylreviews/cdvinylreviews3.htm ;) It was a complete pain in the arse, and almost rewarding...
