4 videos selected & commented by TEEN DAZE :



1Parachutes – “Of Sleep”

“A few years ago, I had the pleasure of seeing Sigur Ros play in Seattle. Parachutes were the opening band, and they completely blew me away. They seemed to have touched on everything that I loved about the newest Sigur Ros record; unabashed joy, and positivity in their music and performance. They’ve since broken up, sadly, but this video, and the two that accompany it, really showcase the band well.”



2 – TORO Y MOI – “YOU HID”

“This video makes me want to make a Soul/R&B record. Chaz is such an inspiring guy, and I think this video shows off the fact his talents as a musician and songwriter far surpass the somewhat debilitating “chillwave” label.”



3 – Baths – “Apologetic Shoulder Blades”

“I’ve just started e-mailing with Will from Baths, because after seeing this video, I HAD to start chatting production with him. I’m figuring out my live show right now, and seeing this was a HUGE inspiration..”



4 – The Presets – “If I know you”

“This video/song completely floors me. The video has such an amazing power to it; the importance of dance is beautifully shown here. I know it touches on this “Foot Loose” vibe of dancing as rebellion, and I guess it might be a bit cheesy because of that, but I try not to let that way of thinking get the best of me. To me, this video is a great example of being a teenager, and finding peace in doing something that so many people look down upon.”
