I don't have the opportunity to travel in real life (alas) - so I really appreciate the option to travel virtually. A while ago, I started considering to make a thematic #ttt issue - namely, to show three music videos dedicated to different cities. And this is exactly what you see below; following today's post you will walk around three beautiful cities of the world: St.Petersburg, New York, and Barcelona. Worth your attention!
Никто — Белые Ночи
"Nikto" is a modern Russian band that, um, doesnt have neither a back catalogue nor releases. Whether the guys have musical talent and their own style or unique "message" is questionable, but in any case their songs intentionally (and successfully) imitate the great Russian underground rock band of 80-es 'KINO' - and this is exactly what attracts fans. However, most of all I liked not the song, but the video itself. The lyrics are simple: "We are going for a walk around the city to celebrate summer". The stylish black and white video is walks along the streets and courtyards of the city, iconic places of interest, and dancing on the roofs of residential buildings. 100% hit, the quintessence of the visual side of the city I live. Hope you enjoy it.
"Никто" это современная российская группа, которая, хм, не имеет ни бэк-каталога, ни релизов. Имеют ли парни музыкальный талант и есть ли у них свой стиль или некоторый уникальный "мессидж" - остается под вопросом, но во всяком случае их песни намеренно (и удачно) имитируют великую российскую рок-группу 'KИHO' - чем скорее всего и привлекают поклонников. Однако мне больше всего понравился не песня, а сам клип. Тема песни проста: "мы идем гулять по городу и праздновать лето". Стильное черно-белое видео - это прогулки по улицам и дворам города, знаковым местам интереса, а также танцы на крышах жилых домов. Стопроцентное попадание, квинтэссенция визуальной стороны города в котором я живу!
Cat Power — Manhatten
There was a moment back in 2000-es when I was pretty much obsessed with Chan Marshall, American singer who stands behind the project 'CAT POWER'. She has a magic velvet voice and outlook (worth mentioning she worked as a model before developing the musical career). No way I cant say this is my fave song from her back catalog, but definitely one of the fave videos. It was a great option for me to explore Manhatten with Chan, to look at it with her eyes.
Nouvelle Vague feat. Liset Alea — Algo Familiar
Liset is one of many girls standing behind the 'Nouvelle Vague' project, and this song will accompany your walk across another great city,— Barcelona!!!
I hope you enjoyed today's music selection, and travelling around the globe without leaving the Hive. 😎 The post goes for Three Tune Tuesday challenge run by @ablaze.
