HOV – COCO
HOV is the audio/visual collaboration of two Polish artists Piotr Matkowski and Jaga Slowinska. They have an EP in the works, but have given all a visual intro via “COCO”, a beautifully stuttered electronic trip melded with a collage of video footage. Check out more via The Fader and Decoder.

Dustin Wong – Diagonally Talking Echo (video)
Words can’t describe how I feel about Dustin Wong‘s upcoming Thrill Jockey LP Dreams Say, View, Create, Shadow Leads (pre-order that bad boy)…but I will…eventually. For now get taken aback by this visually chaotic/beautiful video for “Diagonally Talking Echo”:
Oh and some more mind-altering goodness:
Ricky Eat Acid – being underwater and everything being quiet and still (Video)
So I am by no means a cinematographer, but the other day I stumbled upon some old family videos of a trip to the Oregon coast. Among the videos were some beautiful night shots on the beach where the camcorder’s auto-focus was having a difficult time. The result was pretty cool. As I watched them I couldn’t help but think of the sparse and beautiful melodies that fell on Ricky Eat Acid’s recent LP seeing little ghosts everywhere (get it here). So I did this:
Sri Aurobindo – No Coincidence (video)
There’s nothing more that can set you straight on a Friday than some life-in-reverse psyched out audio/visuals from Baltimore’s Sri Aurobindo. Friends Records asked me to premiere the fine video by Kat Sotelo of “No Coincidence” – the stellar b-side track from the Eyes 7″ (which you can pre-order here). Take a look:
Guards – I See It Coming (Video via Yours Truly)
Guards, producer of one of my favorite LPs this year, simply amaze on this Yours Truly performance of “I See It Coming” featuring the Magik*Magik Orchestra at a mortuary in San Fran. Take a look/listen:
You can DL this track and as well as a performance of “Swimming After Dark” via Yours Truly’s Facebook.
