SPACECAMP'S "MIKO D.T.B." VIDEO DEBUTS
STREAM ALIBI EP ON SOUNDCLOUD

 

Brooklyn-based four piece, Spacecamp, are excited to share the brand new music video for "Miko D.T.B.", the band's first music video and the first single off of debut EP, Alibi. Alongside the premiere of the video, IFC.com describes the video as "a heavy dose of impressive superimposition mixed with collage, claymation, stop motion, and oil painting...with magnificent manipulations of light and perspective."

Spacecamp front man, Jon Wiley, explains the story behind the lyrics tell below. Spoiler alert: it involves guns, narcotics, adultery, and soccer players!

"Lyrically, the song is about a boat captain who is running a shipment of guns and narcotics from Brazil to the Keys for export to the States. He is betrayed by his lover. His boat is boarded by a group of very good soccer players. They carry golden revolvers and fight valiantly for their heroine (not the drug), Sister Crystalline, also the Captain's fraudulent bed-mate. Her actions are sanctified by the fact that she is the leader of an ancient-mystic-shamanistic-psychotropic religious society. Her motives are unclear, even to me. If only I had a few more hyphens I could probably figure it out. She probably means well, even though she behaved badly."

‘Music City 411- Robin Gibb Tribute

By: Andrew Vaughan

It’s truly heartbreaking to see the pain Robin Gibb’s family is going through right now. The Bee Gees singer is in a coma after suffering with liver cancer and most recently pneumonia. Of course, several big name pop acts have passed away recently- Davy Jones of The Monkees probably the most recent. Now I knew Davy to talk to but I’d never met his family. Which is why hearing about the Gibb family’s pain surrounding Robin is so difficult to handle.
