Everyone is already counting the days til this decades ends, listing their favourite albums of the last ten years and apparently ticking off 2009. What a mistake!
Brooklyn-based band Yeasayer - responsible for one of our top records (All Hour Cymbals, which actually made my 17-year old alter ego start aufgemischt back in 2007, oh yeah!) and top videos of this decade (Wait for the Summer) – just aired their new video for the foretaste of their 2010 full-length child – “Ambling Alp” – over at Pitchfork.
It includes a mystic horseman, drummer and two boxers, plus a yellow adaption of the creation of the Uruk-Hais from the “Lord of the Rings“, some nudists and a witch literally turning Yeasayer‘s Chris Keating’s head. I couldn’t had predicted a better video.
The whole magic was created by Julia Grigorian and Kirby McClure from Radical Friend, who are kind of experts in terms of psychedelic motion.
Jump over to Yeasayer’s special website to download the single for free and enjoy the additional 360° video material there. It’s pretty crazy stuff, too. Below the video is the tracklist for Yeasayer’s upcoming album, which will be out on home label We Are Free and Secretly Canadian over there and Mute in Europe next February. See an older – our first aufgemischt one ever! - interview with We Are Free head Jason Foster here (sadly German only).
