How We Watch Music Videos: The Movie

Deerhoof, ever purveyors of fine music videos, recently released a new video for their song My Purple Past. Instead of taking a song, taping themselves singing with it and then synching audio over it, they took a different approach. One I haven't seen before.

The music video displays different ways in which listeners experience Deerhoof's music: On laptop speakers, playing from a record player, from headphones. And the audio is left as is. So what you get is a study on the various audio formats that music is enjoyed. Facinating.

Now if only someone would make a VERY meta music video of all the places we watch My Purple Past...

Hats off to Asha Schechter for directing this great, creative vision.

  • Its a modern take on The Replacements "Bastards of Young" Video. One of my favorites.

    • woah, cool. Thanks for sharing! 
      
      I hadn't seen that before. I can definitely see how one could've pulled inspiration from the other. The Deerhoof video is distinctly lacking any humans tho.
