M83 is teasing me. According to the video, we shall expect the new album…. soon.
The way it was cut totally reminded me of the “Hearts” video by the new Swedish duo I Break Horses. I guess walls of sound building to cresendos seem to really work with rich random imagery.
I started following Scott Foley’s vimeo feed after seeing his “Burnt Drive Drive” video, mashing up a few of my favorite things featuring a marriage of summer images, a soliloquy from M83’s “Highway of Endless Dreams“, audio clips from “Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind”, all synched to the churning dreamscape ofMemoryhouse‘s “Lately (Deuxieme).
Today, Scott’s taking a trip down memory lane again, this time taking footage presumablyfrom college years at Union, audio clips from the Graduate and scoring it with White Hinterland‘s Icarus; a song which I didn’t know until now and I’m so glad I’ve heard it. Great video.
Buried Selves from Scott Foley on Vimeo.
from his vimeo page:
Like a coin in water I let them drift into my dark waters. There they sit, buried, smothered, formed anew by the pressures of my sub-conscience. They cannot breath, they cannot move, they will not die.
Sometimes a finger of light stirs their navy blue center.
My memories.
Here’s your first taste of White Sea, the new project of M83‘s Morgan Kibby. Her debut album (This Frontier), will be released digitally next Tuesday, October 5 but RCRDLBL has an exclusive download of album track “Mountaineer” for you right now at RCRD LBL. Sweet “vocal crescendos and homecoming drums-a breathy beauty.”

Check out Phantogram‘s remix of SVIIB‘s “ILU” and you can download the song in exchange for your e-mail here. The remix is part of SVIIB‘s “Heart Is Strange” digital EP coming out on Sept 14, with other remixes by Pantha du Prince and White Sea (who we’re looking forward to writing about soon, she’s Morgan Kibby of M83).

Often considered Minneapolis’ best totally unknown design super team, Aesthetic Apparatus was founded around 1999 in Madison, Wisconsin by Dan Ibarra and Michael Byzewski as a fun side project from their “real” jobs. Over the years their limited edition, screen printed concert posters have secretly snuck into the hearts and minds of a small, rather silent group of socially awkward music and design nerds. Now, Aesthetic Apparatus is a full time, full-fledged, insanely unstoppable, and occasionally award winning design mega-studio. They will break your heart and drink your blood.
Great place to get unique posters, I’ve already snapped up the M83, Constantines and TV On The Radio ones below.
