From the video description: “Syntaks’ Jakob Skott created this video for the song “Twentytwohundred” (from his group’s full-length Ylajali), in which the parallels between the Danish artist’s visual and aural sensibilities are on full display. Warm, saturated colors and dreamy, abstract imagery fill the clip with a sense of nostalgic wonder, echoing the music’s romantic mingling of the real and unreal.”

A pitch-perfect video for Go-qualia’s Requiem, with sparkling imagery and elements of sacred geometry. It reminds me of Eckhart Tolle’s quote: “diamonds are the enlightenment of rocks.” In that sense, this video is a beautiful visual representation of enlightenment.

A Trip To The Moon

Georges Méliès’ 1901 classic Le Voyage dans la Lune is a psychedelic adventure. Even more so with color and set to AIR’s new song Sonic Armada.
R.E.M Music videos
23 Jan
It was some surprise for me to find out that the music videos to two of R.E.M’s most well-known singles from the 90’s have a somewhat psychedelic style to them.
Both of them have hallucinatory qualities to them, but I especially like how the beautiful video for “Losing My Religion” has the feeling that it takes place inside someone’s mind. The things that the imagery does to the watcher’s imagination… I guess that’s the sort of thing that Terrence McKenna said about it that “There is a transcendental dimension beyond language…”.
I would also recommend to watch them without the sound, especially the first one. The images can speak for themselves.
“Ambling Alp” by Yeasayer

Legendary Pink Dots – This Could Be The End
15 JanI assume (please correct me if you know I am wrong about this) this is a fan made video for this beautiful song by the long-standing psychedelic group the Legendary Pink Dots. But what I am sure of is that this is a pretty trippy video. Enjoy!
Norman McLaren – Begone Dull Care 1949
12 JanNorman McLaren was an oscar winning animation director who did some groundbreaking work from the 1940s to the 1970s. McLaren “Begone Dull Care” from 1949, was painted directly on film, to create a visual representation of Oscar Peterson’s superb piano – perhaps one of the first video clips ever.
McLaren’s work has a special exploratory quality. You can find more of it on YouTube.
