The "other" Acoustika
I was checking how we fare in a google search...and guess what...someone else is using Acoustika as a stage-name! Yes, exactly like we write it. Don't you think it is too much to be just a coincidence to choose a name that is spelt exactly as we write it? I mean, the word should actually be written in Italian: acustica...or in Maltese: Akustika...BUT Acoustika is our invention! It is a crossbreed from Acoustic (English) and Akustika (Maltese). We tried to be original. Then some lazy chaps formed their group - and did not bother to think a bit before choosing a name - I guess they just found this unknown group from Malta and they took the name for themselves cos they liked it!
Check them out at http://acoustika.cjb.net and www.fotolog.net/acoustika . I did complain to them in their guestbook as you can see for yourself - and even gave them details as to how to contact me but I guess they either never view their website or they couldn't care less. All I know is that Acoustika is our trio, we thought of the name around 1995. This other "band" is recent so they cannot claim ownership to the name.
Well you are welcome to add your comments re this subject and even back us by complaining to this new band in their guestbook. Who knows maybe they would change the name a bit so as not to be exacly like ours!
