dresinen | draisine

I was reminded today that Norway has some good music to offer. That, combined with our moshi moshi family, gives a satisfying result for this Tuesday evening: Casiokids served chilled and animated. Oh, and let's not forget about learning Norwegian: dresinen | draisine :)



Please meet the creators of the video Seb Burnett and Joe Wood from Rumpus Animation.

allow yourself to have emotions

In September Africa Express went on tour across the UK. That was a ride of pure joy!

white keys | black keys

The piano keys are black and white but they sound like a million colours in your mind.

boarding

Well, it's been a colourful ride. But feeling pretty relaxed now. After all: I've survived 27.



Please meet the creator of the video Michael Shainblum and see more of his works here.

if the blackness closes in

And as the dark swallows all around us I only look for you, Summer Camp! Sweet dreams :)



and as the dark swallows all around us
I only look for you
and as the night falls all around us
I'm looking straight to you
and if the blackness closes in
I'll be waiting here for you

you give me life

consequences | awkard places

I got some nice yellow energy today, finally got myself a tiny, tiny, tiny notebook that I've always wanted to have and at the end of the day reminded myself of this band: Reptar. Did I mention this already? Oh yes, I did. And all that happened on Tuesday. Good. Night.



and all the consequences spent to all the awkward places
sent to all the awkard places I am too

counting | wisely and slow

Well, it's official. There is nothing more soothing than the harmonies of The Staves. After almost a year from my discovery and seeing them life during my London visit, their debut album is finally available today. And just for the record: they don't live in a log cabin :)




brother, you will never know
all the things I did for you
many years ago

(...) tell me all you need to tell
why is it you whisper when you really need to yell
troubles in tow
go wisely and slow

under the glass of the microscope

See all Yöshi Sodeoka works for Yeasayer's Fragrant World here.

ethereal | eternal

Tidal wave is coming to close my day. Suitably enough. Somehow cleansing and ethereal. Ephemeral? Far from it. Eternal? Most likely. Husky. A band to be heard of. 



Please meet the director of the video Celeste Potter. For more video works click here.

I climbed aboard a tidal wave bearing down upon the city from the ocean
They said it would come any day like a monster of perpetual devotion
I was surfing it clear
I was crashing through the city streets where we once went looking for love

I'd change my name if I had one to change
I'd change the world if I wasn't so plain
I see your eyes in my eyes suddenly

good (morning) tune from Ojo de Gringa

the wandering days

As I've made a habit of wandering around Australia these days, it's high time to be accompanied by Tame Impala during this evening walk. It definitely doesn't feel like walking backwards. On the contrary: it's a juicy aesthetic follow-up of Tame Impala's previous step.



Please meet the directors of the video Joe Pelling & Becky Sloan.

(...) May call back a thought of
The wandering days,
And, blending with each
In the mem'ries that throng,
There haply shall reach
You some echo of song.
The daylight is dying, Andrew Barton "Banjo" Paterson

I am Ned

I like simple animation, minimal design and hot soup. I strive to make films that intrigue. That's a man after my own heart. Please meet the director of the video Ned Wenlock.
