Can’s The Lost Tapes is one of our favourite records of the year so far (keep an eye out for it in our mid-year Reissues and Compilations chart) – for reasons eloquently outlined by Taylor Parkes here.
Following on from their short film for ‘Messer, Scissors, Fork & Light’, re-enactment provocateurs Iain Forsyth and Jane Pollard have created an excellent video for a portion of the baroque-tinged ‘Dead Pigeon Suite’. Animated toys seem to be the common thread here – moving with mechanised precision in time to the music and obscured by blurred, flickering forms. You can watch the video for ‘Dead Pigeon Suite’ below.
