LCTRISC – Sunbird by PlanetaryOnlinePR
The music video for Swedish duo LCTRICS’s “Sunbird” was shot this summer with Johan Stolpe. It has a clear cinematic touch with a story set in a dystopian Scandinavian landscape. A girl and a boy try to find refuge from an autocratic society. Don’t expect a sunny tale.
“The dream would be to make a whole motion picture of this song” says LCTRISC.
“This video is really spectacular,” was the first response of Executive Producer of Consequence of Sound‘s Cluster One TV, Cap Blackard. Cluster 1, Consequence of Sound‘s experimental, music-driven virtual television channel, premiered the brand new video for “Sunbird” to the world this morning.
“Sunbird” is a melancholic and catchy pop song from the Swedish duo Adam Jonsson and Oskar Linnaeus, known as LCTRISC. The newest track has a “less trashy sound” than previous releases, the duo explains. “It’s a lot different from our Maximal EP, which is a cavalcade of sounds. We’ll have some more clean pop songs coming up this fall.”
LCTRISC is the name of the twirly pipeline that connects the two heads of Adam Jonsson and Oskar Linnaeus. It’s a slimy highway where twisted ideas and excessive dreams slide back and forth. Their music is diverse and will never lose it’s experimental character. They presume that if their mission is to invent the perfect song, they must risk creating thousands of failures, just as Thomas Edison must have found thousands of ways to not make a lightbulb. Therefore, to LCTRISC, each “failure” is also a success as it will inevitably lead up to something extraordinary.
