HOLY FUCK THESE ARE POWERS

What the fuck it's the best band in brooklyn, These Are Powers. It was an extreme honor to work with Annna Barie, Pat Noecker, and Bill Salas- cus its like- RHLS makes functional art and this felt like butter and pan cakes makin love on a hot skillet. You know? Touchin down on visual melody makin = the source of inspiration for RHLS: Mackswell and Sarah first started making clothing to costume Nameless (aka Ruffeo aka Mackswell) for his Rap-Puppetry performances, Outfitting TAP was feelin up the earth chakra!!!!




BANG!

Jacqueline Castel director of "Easy Answers" will blow your brains out. Her use of time lapsing and pan/zooming is HARD, a perfect accompaniment to TAP's eerie epic sound. Use of light and color: give this woman an emmy. The paper bling props alone offer hours of visual stimulation. I'm not going to analyze the music video's meaning, that's for you to do. I will say that these props look like they took months of craftsmanship, bringing a warmth and depth that only comes with invested thoughtful brains and hands. Anna told me some of the props (boom boxes, tapes) were made by artist friends of hers but I don't know who they are.. Whoever you are I thank you.
