Music Discovery #3

I know that this blog is suppose to talk about music, fashion, and design. But the thing is, lately almost all of my discoveries have been music. And besides, I think I'll let Susie Bubble of Stylebubble or other prominent fashion bloggers do the fashion discoveries. When I talk about fashion, I'm better at its history and icons. I found them topics more interesting.

ANYWAAAAYYY.....

Back to my music discovery #3.

RUSS CHIMES!!
(Myspace, Last.fm, Twitter, Facebook)

I found out about him through some random blog reading, and really I didn't straightaway found him out. I was searching for a video of my personal favorite  Cinnamon Chasers' tune, Luv Deluxe. And I came about to the video's director's (Saman Keshavarz) Vimeo channel. And there they were...

Three videos from the upcoming EP by Russ Chimes, titled Midnight Club. As a very visual person, I'm instantly hooked to the videos. In terms of the story of the videos, they sort of resembled Luv Deluxe's story. A boy and a girl in a loving relationship, conflicts, guns, and heroism. In my head, these three videos are definitely in my top-3-serial-music-videos list. Daft Punk and Leiji Matsumoto's Interstella 5555 (which really reminded me of Galaxy Express 999, because of their similar looks) being on top of the list.
 
Enough talking about the videos, now, let's talk about the music. His tunes that are in his latest EP are sort of a mix of Miami Horror with the sounds that old-school Sega games made and a dash of summery-but-dark-neon. Does that make sense? I do hope so...

But really, the best way to describe his music is that they are a bunch of brilliant electro-dance retro-futuristic tunes. A definite booty-shakers, and if you're into summer neon rave kind of mood, this one is definitely for you.

I just can't wait for Midnight Club EP to be out at the beginning of next month!! KYAAA!!

So, I've talked about his tunes in his upcoming EP and its videos. Now, just enjoy the three awesome videos. I strongly recommend watching them in HD, full screen, and in a mid-high volume.
