Familjen’s “Det snurrar i min skalle”

I think the moment I realized that the video for Familjen’s “Det snurrar i min skalle” was brilliant was when you first see the little blonde boy hitting the cymbal in time to the beat. Before that, I was a little unsure, but I did not leave disappointed. Everything I know about Familjen (Swedish for “The Family”) comes from the Spotify blurb which I could copy paste for you guys, but instead I’ll just link you to the artist page.

Charles sent me this video earlier after a long discussion about late 90s/early 00s drum & bass and few back-and-forths of videos of people dancing to music they’re not dancing to. I dig the synthpop styling of the track and the 60s Swedish church footage they used to make the video. It’s real good.

So, you missed Cut Copy at Terminal 5 the other night…

Well, don’t worry because Swedish website Klubbland (it means “Club Land”) has posted a little video of a walk around with the band followed by three live songs. Go with Cut Copy as they get their morning coffee (YUM!), go to the record store (TOPICAL!), and play some super dance beats (OONTZ! OONTZ!). Do yourself a favor, though, and crank the volume. The levels on the video are frankly tepid.

Great band and having just today listened to their three records in order, I have to say they’ve made tremendous growth since Bright Like Neon Love. If you’ve not heard Cut Copy and like things that are fun and dancey and good, check them out. If you like Cut Copy, you already know what I’m talking about and I love you.
