“Get Some” by Lykke Li
24 JunLykke Li and Johan Söderberg are not afraid of old stereotypes. They just pick them up and use them as stone tablets to write in their new laws. When this Scandinavian heathen valkyrie adorns herself with typical male sexual metaphors, those metaphors start to smell like shrunken heads and gleam like hunting trophies. So we better be careful what we call her since she is going to use it against us in her satanic dissemination rituals. In her voodoo, a word we might have dropped carelessly can be applied instead of a lost hair. In the center of the kaleidoscope she is dancing to the beat of the tribal drums while pulses of light move in on us from the “heart of darkness”. Her ink-stained fingers make clear: she is the one in charge of the Rorschach test.
Drawing Down The Moon
22 JunSergei Parajanov’s beautiful The Color of Pomegranates (1968) makes a perfect pair with Young Magic’s song Drawing Down the Moon.

Handsome Finnish dudes and elves freaking around in this psytrancerock music video.

Pretty Woman on Acid…
17 Jun…that is what a friend who told me about this video called it. And it is pretty spot on. The video for Bear in Heaven’s “Sinful Nature” by director Yoonha Park is uncanny valley’s take on the slick fairytale drowned in a very synthetic high. Bam!
(My favourite part is the yellow Walkman pirouetting through the scene while that Julia Robots is stripping out of her top around 1:24)
[Thank you for the suggestion, Daniel!]

His latest work, a video clip for Assaf Avidan’s track Different Pulses, has a nice hallucinatory feel to it.
