Columna Ascaso

Paul plays with some people in a project called Columna Ascaso. Originally there was a couple of protest-songs written by Oscar Abril Ascaso that needed to get arranged, played and recorded. A number of people started to play and record them in a punkrock-fashion, among them Paul ,but he now did some remixes and experimental stuff with the original material. Some of it already found its way into Institut FATIMA live shows. this next one is a coverversion of a song by spanish songwriter Chicho Sánchez Ferlosio.
