JAMIE LIDELL: Another Day

Well it seems I have some time to update this blog. And there is a pretty cool backlog of high quality videos to post, so let's get started with Jamie Lidell's latest soul groove. Although the new album steers clear of the earlier electronic noodlings of previous Super_Collider work or even his first solo effort of warped experimentations, the sing-a-long soul of this positive single is hard to resist. Directed by Timothy Saccenti, see if the light-box stepping antics remind you a certain Michel Jackson Billy Jeansing. Watch the music video (qt).

BATTLES: Atlas

Can anyone categorize the sound of Battles? Is it prog rock, electro rock, glam rock, alt rock or psychedelica? I've got no idea, but this first video from their latest long player Mirrors is a rollicking thumper with weird vocal overlays and serious T. Rex percussion. The video is a beauty: glass boxed, dynamic angles and vivid rich colour saturations directed by photographer Timothy Saccenti. Cheers to tipster Jesse M. Watch the music video (qt).
