The first word that comes to mind when trying to describe Matthew Dear‘s “Headcage” video should be fairly obvious: drugs. Over mid-tempo techno, abstract images swirl in and around one another, creating the beginnings of a slow-moving, hallucinatory storm. All of this is further proof that those who choose to mine the 1990′s for creative inspiration are going to focus on the latter half of the decade, when music supervisors for film trailers and car commercials did the majority of their research by watching Amp.
Matthew Dear will be playing Noise Pop on February 24th. Click here for more details.
My idea of entertainment is pretending to be sane and listening to my internal infinite playlist. Welcome to my head. Feel free to run screaming for the nearest exit.
From time to time you can download free mp3s from artists and bands that we love listening to. We scour the web for these links, occasionally hosting our own, in the hopes of influencing you to go out and buy/support these artists and bands. If that bugs you, because you hate free stuff and wish to be compensated for it, let us know and we will remove it ASAP. Happy listening.
