An Irish choral composition (“the BEST song about seaweed” according to a commenter) gets a polyphonic spin by Spokanki, “8 sisters from the mystical country of SpokanLand, wandering around all corners of the planet to search and distribute music of different peoples from Africa to the Netherlands.”

Here's a deeply mesmerizing new music video for a track by electronic artists Max Cooper and Rob Clouth called "Candeleda." I'd call these visuals by Brandon Eversole highly psychedelic, but not in a stereotypical tie-dye or Mandelbrot fashion; these are modern, high tech, surprisingly gorgeous.

Director Nadia Lee Cohen, whose work lives in a pleasingly weird zone of satire, fashion, and absurdism, recently released her music video for an old Aphex Twin track, and it delivers exactly what you’d expect from an Aphex Twin video: it’s batshit crazy.

I made you a mixtape.

Okay, I made it 30 years ago, but still, in principle, it's for you.

I don't know what happened to Volumes 1-4 unfortunately. Not even slightly interesting, I guess.

Anyway yeah, look for this on your favorite streaming platform. It will not be there.

In this 2D animated film, a young woman, billed as “the main character,” attempts to register a domain with her name, only to discover someone else has already snagged it and is posting animations based on her social media highlights. It’s hilarious and poignant and mysterious.

Comedian Ember Knight made a 9 minute EP based on the text on a Dr. Bronner’s soap bottle (lavendar, to be precise), interspersed with historical nuggets about the fascinating figure of the Doctor himself. You don’t really get to choose your prophets.

The music video for this ethereal track by Oklou is set on the streets of a quiet suburb, where several girls are pursued by a force that can’t be captured by the camera they’re wielding. It's unsettling in its framing, never straying far from the girls’ POV as they start to fray apart.

Director Dugan Gundelfinger tells the tale of taking an exorbitant amount of liquid LSD from a stranger on a beach in Costa Rica and subsequently freeing himself completely from that pesky thing called “ego,” in this demented short film.

In this music video for a track by the band Oh Astro, we see remixed footage of Ruth Buzzi (RIP) and Jim Nabors from their shortlived Krofft sitcom "The Lost Saucer." They play robots!

Easta! It's the beloved story of how sentient, horn-playing, Easta eggs (including crossbred bunny-eggs) live peacefully on the moon, until UFEs (unidentified fried eggs) arrive to blow up King & Queen Easta Egg's castle, because screw the monarchy, amirite? Anyway this music video is called Easta.

Happy Bicycle Day! On this date in 1943, Dr. Albert Hofmann experienced the first intentional LSD trip, ingesting around 250 micrograms of the potent substance, then taking a bike ride home from his lab. Here's a fanciful four-minute animated film depicting the event.

Neo-classical electronic artist Odalie has an excellent new single out on Max Cooper’s Mesh label. The otherworldly music video is a visit to a planet where mystic mountains hover in the atmosphere and life is seeded via fiery vortex. Both the soundtrack and the visuals are lush and intricate.

In this music video showcasing the experimental beats of the band ECHT!, witness the history of Europe through the perspective of a giant floating head (reminiscent of the Supreme Being from Time Bandits, but much lower rez). Apparently a lot of dancing occurred.

Quickly catapulting to second place on my list of "Favorite music videos featuring a lone astronaut hurtling across the galaxy like Dave Bowman" is this recent music video from “psychedelic soul” artist Common Saints. The cinematic vid is written and directed by Jeremy Rubier.
