Goldfish

Hi there.

Few days ago I found this video on reddit, at first I believed it was simply a random video using retro visuals.



But it actually was the newest video of Goldfish, two guys from South Africa, their style is between regular Electronica, Nu Jazz and Downtempo, using a lot of sax, trumpets, oldschool drums and of course, piano. The thing that I enjoy the most, is that they also include a bit of "traditional african music" (I'm no expert, but that's the way I feel on a track like Big Band Wolf).

It might sound a bit similar to Parov Stelar or Basement Jaxx (their old songs, like Supersonic, Do Your Thing, Romeo) sometimes, and oh well, I think I can live with that.

Beside being the geekiest music video of the year -the number of games you can see in the video is simply crazy- the edit of We Come Together they did is amazing, loved it after a few seconds.

The original version, from the album Get busy Living, was a bit too calm for me.



Here is the extended mix !





These two tracks are also from Get Busy Living.





And these ones are from the album Perceptions of Pacha.







Enjoy!
