Friday Music Day

Friday Music Day: July Thirteen Twenty-Twelve

21 Comments

So, Lofi dub-pop duo, former Sconnies, and married couple Peaking Lights had their first baby between last year's 936 and this year's Lucifer. They've really incoporated their baby boy into their music. Check out their new video for the song "Beautiful Son". It's definitely one of the most... interesting videos I've watched in a long time.

There are so many different thoughts I have when I watch this and a lot of them are jokes. The video isn't bad, but it does open itself up to thoughts like "so this is what a baby's acid trip would be like".

I'm sure there are many witty lines y'all can compose about this video, before or after you share your random ten.

    *Notes:
    1. CMM is a former Will Oldham collaborator. I thought this album was free from her soundcloud. Maybe it was at one time, but it isn't anymore. However, I see that this gem of a BPB cover is free.

    7. Late 90's dub-house. Without knowing what was on it, I purchased a used copy of Porter Ricks Vs. Techno Animal's Symbiotics which I really prefer over Biokinetics. The presence of Kevin Martin aka The Bug aka Techno Animal aka Ice really adds a drive to PR's more subdued sounds that makes me prefer the collaboration album to this album.

      1. No I did not, I've now noted it to check when I (evenutally) get a computer of my very own.

          1. i got into that album by listening to it while playing a lot of red dead redemption. it fit the mood very well.
