Music Mondays: Groove Armada – Paper Romance
Great single off of Black Light, the new album this year.
The Groove Armada process is rote by this point. Andy Cato and Tom Findlay act as ringleaders, bringing in their newest coterie of vocalists, then putting them through their paces as they dance across genres and styles. When Cato said in January that MGMT served as a major inspiration for Black Light, it might have been tempting to think that perhaps he had misspoken. After all, Groove Armada has been around for more than a decade, delivering big-beat essentials over that period, from “I See You Baby” to “Song 4 Mutya,” and there seemed to be very little overlap with the neo-psychedelia purveyed by the Wesleyan Brooklynites. On the other hand, Groove Armada has been willing to adapt and change its sound to a fault, so the idea of a more psychedelic groove wouldn’t have been completely impossible to imagine.

All Creative Work Is Derivative – Music Video
This video uses stop motion animations of ancient sculptures to show how culture has always been free and in fact only exists by building on the ideas that already existed.

The application that changed making music…
By
When we started working on Live, and finally showed a first Version in 2001, the big music software companies did not take us very serious. “A laptop on stage? You must be crazy!” or “This interface looks horrible!” were reactions we got often. However, we are now the most successful music software company out there, with an incredible number of customers all over the world, and our software massively changed the way electronic music is created and performed.
It became very easy to make music. And this is bad. Everyone can make a boring uninspired piece of music in a lunch break, and it will sound good and ‘professional’. It became really very, very easy to make music with our software. And this is great! Because it not only allows highly musical people with limited budget to create fantastic and complex music, it also allows those folks like me to dive deeper into the creation and exploration of music, sound and structure than ever before. I never spent less time thinking of technology and more time making music with it. Well, apart from my engagement with the company.

Nobody Beats the Drum – Grindin’ Music Video
I’ve recently become a huge fan of these guys and their audio visual jungle noise!
This entire animation was created with wooden blocks, no CGI at all. That’s pretty amazing if you ask me. If you loved the video check out the “making of” where the band gets interviewed about the creative process (subtitled).
