The tracks are available at the film’s website,www.thepoweroffew.com, as a part of ‘Scene 64,’ the digital editing contest created by the film’s writer/director Leone Marucci and Kilcher in their efforts to involve fans in a collaborative filmmaking process for the upcoming indie.
Dj Ashba, who visited the New Orleans set last fall commented, “When I heard that Leone and Q’orianka were bringing people this unique interactive experience, I offered to help in any way. User generated scenes in the final cut? Sign me up.” Dj Ashba is releasing these original tracks following “This Is Gonna Hurt,” the hit album from Sixx: A.M., the hard rock band comprised of Mötley Crüe bassist Nikki Sixx, James Michael and Ashba.

The best edit will be used in the final film and the winner will receive a screen credit.
Writer/director Leone Marucci commented, “Now fans have the chance to cut to a couple ripping guitar tracks from an incredible talent. Collaborating with visionaries is what this project is all about.”
THE POWER OF FEW revolves around an enigmatic smuggling ring’s efforts to steal a priceless artifact. The story unfolds through the unique perspective of five characters who cross paths on a day filled with danger, hope and possible transformation.
