music film // Bombay Beach : “Thee Mote”

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…

music film // Phinisey : “Something New”

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.

TIMBER! Outdoor Music Festival 2015 exploded last weekend with bubbles and dust and sunshine and lots of music, nature and more music. The bridge over the river transported us to an otherworldly place where music drifted over sunkissed treetops and old friends laughed around campfires and children played naked in the river and men with rockets on their feet descended from the sky and young girls saw band after band with strong female voices and everybody bicycled and hiked and paddled and Beat Connection got us on our feet and La Luz spun some sort of choreographed Ferris Bueller’s Day Off moment and David Bazan made us cry into our wool blankets and The Dead Milkmen birthed a whole new generation of punk rockers and the voices of The Head and The Heart tucked us in. Thank you Kevin, Phil and Chad at Artist Home for another unforgettable weekend!
