Allow us to present this music film we put together for our friends in Portland’s Bombay Beach. We used motion graphics, rephotographed footage and original footage to create this beast—we hope it only serves to make the band that much more mysterious than their music…
Seattle area producer and musical collaborator Phinisey is striking out on his own and releasing solo music—doing Something New…starting with this music film we created for him. We wanted him to exist in a dreamy blank slate miasma of color about to take shape into “Something New”—like the dawn of the universe or the morning sky. It’s Phinisey’s heartfelt delivery, though, that makes the visuals pop!

We teamed up again with the beautiful V. Contreras on this single-take, dusky, beachy film for her song Burn.
The final take away session from last summer’s Timber Outdoor Music Festival. We think this is a beautiful song and a heartfelt performance from Cumulus‘ Alexandra Niedzialkowski—enjoy!
Another take away session from last summer’s Timber Outdoor Music Festival—Rockwell Powers unleashing 16 stanzas of verse, featuring Luke Stevens’ soulful interludes. Listen to the end to hear Rockwell maintain his flow as Damien Jurado does a soundcheck in the distance—an interesting duet to our ears…
Throwing back to last summer’s Timber Outdoor Music Festival when we got to sit in the riverside shade with the always awesome Tea Cozies and capture their acoustic version of Cosmic Cosmo—listen for the festival-goers floating down the river in the background…
Seattle/Tacoma artist Vicci Martinez is releasing new material in collaboration with Tacoma’s Enter-Exit-Stay that has us totally hooked. We were honored to produce the first music film for this project using our personal favorite song Stay Awake.
We were on hand at Everett, Wash.’s Skate Deck for the roller skate release party of The Moondoggies‘ latest album Adios, I’m A Ghost.
Put us in a roller skating rink with cameras and we’re going to dive in quads first. The Moondoggies asked us to use the footage to put together a music film for their b-side Roll Away and we were happy to oblige.
