the midweek meander 031007

sparkling noisily amongst the latest crop of Big Dada recruits, Canadian tonguesmith Cadence Weapon finally anoints yr cranium with the excellent, elephantine bleeps of his Breaking Keyfabe record this month - by way of intro, spot all the video game homages in the ‘Sharks’ video and give yrself a virtual huggle.

Those Dancing Days are starting to wade into the public consciousness, but we told you about them back in may. click above to witness their performance of must-be-future-hit ‘Hitten’ (yes, that’s what the title means, too) on a Swedish TV show. ‘raw pop’ is still my best summation of thier appeal - hopefully fame won’t transmogrify them into nightmarish hipster ogresses.

keeping it NICE, Nathan Fake is here for anyone who misses the (future) countryside, and this tweemendous video for new single ‘You Are Here’ is recommended for defrizzing yr unconscious during tea breaks and the like.

moving sideways, ‘And She Looked At The Swan’ is a more reflective (but troubled) moment from Liverpool’s anarcho-something-or-other experimental tendency aPAtT - elsewhere, you can see their self-made documentary, their bizarro-cartoon and ‘dVD’.

lastly, Plan B’s own hairy sweethearts Les Savy Fav have asked their fans to make their next video (for ‘The Equestrian’) and the results range from Bunny’s positively demonic (all senses intended) kindergarten riot (above) to horsies in the countryside, a man and his ‘midget sex doll’ and eerie masks. what have we unleashed..?

That Nathan Fake track is beautiful. Is there a new album coming out?

And didn’t that Cadence Weapon album come out ages ago? I remember hearing it a while back. It was pretty good - that video is brilliant, and a little bit Gondry-esque.
