cLOUDDEAD or "smartarse surrealism"

"Experimental hip-hop group with musicians, Why?,Doseone, and Odd Nosdam. Combination of hip hop, experimental, grounded in 'traditional' hip-hop, influences as varied as electronica, psychedelic music and indie rock"



This video isn't theirs I just put it up so you can hear the song, though they have an unofficial animated video done for their song Dead Dogs Two which is a remix of a song done by Boards of Canada, which is pretty entertaining.

  2. yeah that was the first thing i noticed about it, the simplicity, but it really worked with the song. I felt like there was so much stuff going on in the song that it works to have the animation be simple so it doesn't take away from the music. The guy who did it said he only did a bit of the animation at first and people kept hassling him about finishing it and then he created the whole thing. I also like when it all shifts to color and the blood that comes down in the back.
