Fox Hands Updates

Thought I'd pass along this strange/wonderful video for the Fox Hands track "Listen to the Walls". The song is off the consistently excellent self-titled EP released here on GRR digitally. We're not the only ones who think the release is quite notable:

Fox Hands is a timid, noisy, jittery kaleidoscope of colourful sounds escaping from a man named Adrian Todd Webb who lives in Virginia, US. His music can perhaps be likened to other topically lo-fi natured artists who instill an old-time simplicity beset with a futuristic technological fascination, resulting in an otherworldly sound. Very much independent, his bursting, rubbery, blinking video for his song ‘Listen To The Walls’ is a fascinating escapade into exploring visually the messy collage of his sounds. Close ups of textures blurry like his voice, the visual effect starring in the video reflects the bend-it-’til-it-breaks rubbery and fuzzy guitar technique played throughout the song. The drums echoed in the blinking frame shifts, it’s another lo-fi troubadour exercising his wit and charm with fantastic results.

"C’est le bal des diodes. Toutes clignotent en rythme, pétillantes couleurs qui illuminent la nuit par intermittence. Bleu, vert, rouge, rouge, jaune, bleu, orange ! Aucune ne peut bouger, forcément, on ne saute pas hors du circuit comme ça, mais la dance existe. Elle est onde lumineuse, chatoiement de couleurs. Bleu, vert, rouge, rouge…"
Translation: "This the diodes ball. All of them flash in time, sparkling colours which illuminate the night on and off. Blue, green, red, red, yellow, blue, orange ! None of them can move, of course, it’s not that easy to jump out of the circuit, but their dance occurs. It is made of luminous waves, colours shimmer. Blue, green, red, red…"

Couldn't have said it better myself.
