MS Pick - Colourmusic - Yes! | Video
Merry Swankster approved exports from Oklahoma City (and self proclaimed "boy band") - Colourmusic - recently YouTube'd a lo-fi kaleidoscope-y video for the song "Yes!" and posted on their MySpace page. Such confluence of web 2.0 (including this here blogging), enough to bring a tear to the eye. Have you taken to Colourmusic yet? Thrusting beats, poppy melodies aplenty in between chunks of delicious sonic density.
The thrusting march of elevating rhythms propels serious intensity on this track, so much so that you'll surely enlist in whatever cause is being trumpeted. Taming the bombastic pop sounds are unassuming kick-back response loops providing subtle touch to the front and center bigness. Quite a nice design trick for the sake of balance. "Yes!" was an early favorite from the The Red EP before realizing Colourmusic's full repertoire (including The Yellow EP) was very strong. Singer Ryan Hendrix confessed this song was his "baby" in confidence to me. I crossed my fingers and now pass this nugget to thee, oh awesome reader.
Colourmusic - "Yes!"
A post on "Yes!" had been planned before the Colourmusic boys one upped the Merry Swankser and preemptively released this video. I must thank them for the timely release though, allowing to complement what was going to be a lone MP3 with a truly multimedia offer. We like to think our content can be rich, even on lazy, late summer Fridays.
