MUSIC IN MOTION

Under this heading, in periodic fashion, I will review, and then post a link to a video that I think others should behold. It won’t always be about the music, sometimes it will be about the visual aspect of the expression, or the combination of the music with the visual expression.

Today’s link is to a video by an Electronic band from Norway called Royksopp. Thier name literally means “smoke mushroom” in Norwegian. This pick was made purely for the visual//musical combination. Don’t misunderstand; I really like the music as well. There are amazing electronica/techno groups out within the musical flux, and Royksopp is definitely one of them. This is a prime example of a perfect melding of visual art with the art of sound.

There is an ode to the original art of video gaming in this, and the musical accompaniment is sublimely dreamy.

ENJOY:
