A Lull – Skinny Fingers

Comments Off on A Lull – Skinny FingersMusic

I had no idea until someone pointed this out to me today that Nigel Evan Dennis (A.K.A. Electric Heat) was in a band, and I also had no idea that they are really good. He just released his first video today for their upcoming EP entitled, ‘Ice Cream Bones’ and boy I am just blown away by how talented he is. Great music, great design, great art. Everything just great. He created the video himself and from what I can tell also did the album cover. Wow.

You can learn more about ‘A Lull’ here and also download a copy of the track ‘Skinny Fingers’.

Congratulations Nigel. Fantastic work all around.

Apoptosis

Comments Off on ApoptosisMotion Graphics

This is a video for an artist called ‘Caelum’ (Released in 2008 on Aroundtherecords, JP). You can visit their MySpace page here.

I have no idea really how this video was created. I am assuming by some kind of generative processing. I was really impressed by the visuals though. Beautiful.

Thank you for the email Steph.

A lot of people have been wondering both if there would be a Lollapalooza this year and if so, who would be performing in it. Yes there will be one and you can watch the lineup above. I have never been but am seriously considering it this year.
