It seems each track from Yeasayer’s 2012 Album Fragrant World got a psychedelic video in a similar style (reminding me of those days when we stared at the screen saver until the early hours of the morning). Here are two of them hand-picked for your sunday afternoon leisure. Enjoy!
Chancellor Leopard has some good YouTube videos with things like singing skeletons and floating frogs in top hats. Here are a couple. Music above by Ben Wallis, below is Black Moth Super Rainbow.
Flying Lotus keep on inspiring psychedelic music videos. It’s so great and inspiring to see people like Steven Ellison, who are so dedicated to creating psy atmosphere in their music and videos.
I just went to see the last Michel Gondry (movie director: Eternal sunshine of the spotless mind, La science des rêves ; videoclip maker: Crystalline – Björk, Rolling stones…) movie yesterday night, an adaptation of “Froth on the Daydream” (French: “L’Écume des Jours”), a 1947 novel by the French Surrealist novelist Boris Vian.
“Colin is a wealthy young man with a resourceful and stylish man-servant, Nicolas, as well as a fantastic olfactory-musical invention: the pianocktail. With dizzying speed, Colin meets and weds Chloé in a grand ceremony. Generously, Colin bequeaths a quarter of his fortune to his friends Chick and Alise so they too may marry…”
Gondry succeeds here to translate the hyper-surrealistic environment depicted in Vian’s novel.
Enjoy the trailer, and I hope you may have the opportunity to see the movie soon !
Some of you might remembers the Spiritual Cuisine video featured here in 2011. Here is another psychedelic food video, a stop motion mandala created from peppers rice, peanuts, kale, Coffee beans, and spices.
