Frilly Military: a homemade pop video

imomusWell, after telling you yesterday that some of my new stuff is "hits in a parallel universe", I thought I'd show you. Here's a homemade pop video I shot yesterday in Kyoto, cycling through a shopping arcade on the west side of the city. It's for "Frilly Military", one of the songs that'll be on the new album. Click the picture to see it. It's 15.7MB.
The song (a big hit in a parallel shopping arcade, for sure) is a reworking of one I wrote for Kahimi Karie back in 2001. I recorded and produced it in Osaka this month, and John Fashion Flesh Talaga reworked it (especially the skippy buildy bit at the end) in Bay City, Michigan. And now it's everywhere at once (there's even a blocky-dizzy low-res version of it on YouTube).
Oh, "Frilly Military" is published by Sony Music Japan. And the video was made with iMovie. Love those cheap and cheerful effects! My "Ocky Milk" album is due out this summer.

You don't have to compete with mad cars, wear useless jock's helmets and cope with random people yell/throw things at you like in, we all know your favourite enemy, The West/America.

I was wondering if you totally scrapped the Rusty sessions, or if not, how much Rusty is on your new album?

It spoofs an old Eurovision broadcast. The tune is a bit "Morrissey-lite," but definitely a grower. I love that he namedrops directors Pasolini and Visconti.

Date: 2006-02-25 04:45 am (UTC)i was just now able to see it .
cheap effects done right = 10000x more affective than expensive effects done wrong .......
and i watched it a few times in a row in order to soothe the ear worm the song created.
very catchy.
lovely.
