The Black Ghosts - It’s Your Touch (Dir. Nick Banks)
It’s Monday! That means a spankin’ new video premier from London’s The Black Ghosts, in the continuing video series brought to you by the Ghosts and IAMSOUND records.
The series began two Mondays ago with ‘Some Way Through This’ and continued last week with Big Stereo debuting ‘Any Way You Choose to Give It’. Remember, alternating Mondays, ‘Toof and Stereo bring you new vids from The Black Ghosts. Chuch.
This video is directed by Boston U. alumni, Nick Barnes, and animated by Los Angeles artist, Stephen Tompkins.
Leeds, UK, pop-rockers Heads We Dance have captured my ears! Some might consider this post’s lateness to be about as fashionable as a pair of Jordache jeans (the band formed in late 2006, and became blog-famous by early 2007). But we’ll wear the tight stonewash with pride and poise—in this umpteen-new-favorite-songs-a-day internet culture we live, these tunes are proving their staying power.
Under the guidance of Grammy winning engineer Simon Gorgerly, Heads We Dance are producing fun, danceable, romantic pop tunes that lend themselves to dance remixes by some of Europe’s finest—French “euro-crunk” head Tepr and the always-fashionable Londoner and ‘toof favorite, FrankMusik.
The ‘Love in the Digital Age’ single is available on wax in very limited quantities (just 300!), snap one up on PureGroove, if there’s any left! Heads We Dance also just came out with fresh T-shirts and goodies this week, also up for grabs on PureGroove.
Frankmusik is a 21 year old producer, songwriter from Thornton Heath South East London. He has lived there all his life and one day decided that it was high time that he made some sexy synth pop music. With a combination of retro synths, commodore 64 samples, fast chunky drum riffs and tried and tested lyrics, Frankmusik has started to get the ball rolling in 2007. Earlier this year he released his first EP titled ‘Frankisum’.
Disco Dust was one of the frist blogs we’d seen posting Frankmusik and they even did an interview with him. If you like what you hear go pick up the whole ep on itunes or emusic. Check the myspizzle for dates and tracks & pics.
The girls from Dead Disco sound magical, look it too. With their new track they venture out from their indie hipster roots and try on some pants that are a bit poppier but still staying true to their sound. This remix is by FrankMusik.
