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.

music film // The Moondoggies : “Roll Away”
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.

music film // V. CONTRERAS : “Gasoline”
We’re pleased to share our latest music film—”Gasoline” from Seattle independent artist V. Contreras‘ eponymous debut album.
Working with time-lapse footage, projections, a unique setting (the—possibly haunted—cavernous basement of Seattle’s legendary Moore Theater) and fractured editing, we created a music film that we think captures the “crazy” simmering within the song.

film // YOURS TRULY : Pickwick
It was a spine-tingling shoot for Yours Truly that allowed us to capture one of our favorite local bands, Pickwick, in the comfy-as-an-old-couch confines of their suburban studio. Seriously, keep an eye out for these guys hitting it big. And while you’re at it, check out our previous video we shot for Yours Truly as well as the rest of their incredible videos.

video // YOURS TRULY : Pure Bathing Culture
We’ve long admired the intimate, live music filmmaking that the folks at Yours Truly have been putting out for several years now. We’ve recently had the opportunity to work with them filming and editing videos in Seattle.
The first to be released is this gorgeous song from the good people of Pure Bathing Culture (whom we’ve had the fortune of filming before, first as part of Vetiver’s band at the first Huichica Music Festival and second as part of Richard Swift’s band at the Huichica Music Festival the following year!)
