Today’s 36th ‘Midweek Music Bump‘ is by young artist ‘David Dallas’ and his track ‘Big Time’. I’m feeling the retro horns, break-beats and the relevant lyrics, as well as the subtle but interesting visual effects added in by director ‘Special Problems‘. That’s why I’ve selected this track for this week’s ‘Midweek Music Bump’.

Major Lazer “Keep it Going Louder” from Eric Wareheim on Vimeo.

Today’s 35th ‘Midweek Music Bump‘ is by the always interesting ‘Major Lazer’ and their fab dance party track ‘Keep it Going Louder’. From a graphic + effects perspective this video has it all and is really interesting. The rather robust women on pocket rockets with [...]

Today’s 34th ‘Midweek Music Bump‘ is by the over-adrenalized ‘Vampire Weekend’ cranking out a track called ‘Cousins’ in a back alley in what looks to be in NYC somewhere. I’m feeling this track b/c it’s super energetic and exactly what I need to get me through this week as I travel all over the damn [...]

Today’s 33rd ‘Midweek Music Bump‘ is by Brooklyn based chamber pop choir boys ‘Grizzly Bear’ with their melodramatic + atmospheric track ‘Ready, Able’. The surreal story told by the stop motion animation was beautifully rendered and directed by artist Allison Schulnik fitting the songs mood perfectly. That’s why I’ve selected this track for this week’s [...]

Today’s 32nd ‘Midweek Music Bump‘ is by the amazing LA based ‘Mayer Hawthorne’ with his heartbreaking track ‘Just Ain’t Gonna Work Out’. As we all know, things often change in life. Relationships, bowling partners and sometimes things as insignificant as your hairstyle. In the end it’s what keeps life interesting, and as the Mayer say’s [...]

Today’s 31st ‘Midweek Music Bump‘ is by one of my all time fav’s ‘Yo La Tengo’ (out of Hoboken, New Jersey) with their live rendition of ‘Here to Fall’. I have always enjoyed their experimental ways and heady vibes. I actually like this live version more than the studio version. Good stuff from folks with [...]

Today’s 30th ‘Midweek Music Bump‘ is by Paris, France based band ‘The Parisians’ called ‘Time For Nothing More’. Directed by Nicolas Davenel and Thomas Delebecque, visual effects by Vincent Papaix. This dizzying frame by frame video is littered with interesting moments as you reverse through endless scapes that range from urban to countryside. ♥ the [...]

Today’s 29th ‘Midweek Music Bump‘ is by UK band ‘We Have Band’ called ‘You Came Out’. Shot over 2 days and stop frame animated from 4,816 still images. Yes, that means no video at all. Check out the Flickr link below to see all the stills. Pretty insane. The track itself is a nice peppy [...]

Today’s 28th ‘Midweek Music Bump‘ is by west coast band ‘The Deadly Syndrome’. Last week when I posted those great night shots by Will Etling, one of his fans or friends posted a link to his band and suggested I go check them out. Long story short, I did and they are really good, especially [...]

Someone’s taken some notes from Madonna’s early career… Today’s 27th ‘Midweek Music Bump‘ is a shocking French rap/electronica/dub diva named ‘Uffie’. Her super edgy sexed up lyrics accompanied by some fresh creative beats and 80s synth effects make her track ‘Pop the Glock’ very disruptive and unique amongst others in her genre. The video is [...]

Today’s 26th ‘Midweek Music Bump‘ is a quirky rock jangle by San Francisco based band ‘Girls’ called ‘Lust For Life’. I like the low-fi film quality that is reminiscent of something that an old school Lomo camera would produce and the cast of characters shown in odd scenarios mouthing along to the lyrics. Up-beat and [...]

Dan Deacon – Paddling Ghost from Natalie van den Dungen on Vimeo.

Today’s 25th ‘Midweek Music Bump‘ is an over-caffeinated exclusive re-edit by extra-terrestrial experimental digital composer ‘Dan Deacon’ called ‘paddling Ghost’. The video was directed by Natalie van den Dungen, who has worked on some pretty impressive puppetry and surrealist video work in the past. [...]

Today’s 24th ‘Midweek Music Bump‘ is a track by Wolf Parade vocalist/keyboardist Spencer Krug’s sideline project -> Sunset Rubdown called ‘Black Swan’. This video displays some interesting spot-lit foliage and star-lit night scapes that are peppered with some creepy skeletons followed by occasional explosions of kaleidoscopic graphics. The music itself is very 60′s acid rock [...]

Today’s 23rd ‘Midweek Music Bump’ (wow, I’m up to 23!?) is a track by an American electronic band from Cambridge, Massachusetts -> Passion Pit called ‘Sleepyhead’. The last couple weeks I have been listening to a lot of heavy synth based music and trying shoot light trails with my camera. Don’t get the wrong idea, [...]

Today’s 21st ‘Midweek Music Bump’ is a track by Mayer Hawthorne called ‘Maybe So, Maybe No’. This is a great track, it’s got a little classic ‘Earth Wind and Fire’ horn action going on that I dig. + the skate scenes… I’m all [...]
