LANTVRN / Not Enough Light

Friend Camerin Kelly has just released Not Enough Light, the debut LP of his band LANTVRN, which features Wimbledon AFC supporter, fellow countryman and former Nebula bassist Tom Davies. Locally released in the Los Angeles Ameoba, and via mail order, on CD and cassette, it comes with some silk screened artwork and packaging. The record was engineered earlier in the year by Samur Khouja, and produced by Bron Tieman (Crooked Cowboy and the Freshwater Indians), at Seahorse Sound Studios. LANTVRN will be playing with Ancestors and others as part of the two night Tee Pee Records showcase, held at Spaceland later this month.

As I was just on the subject of some great video by a friend to support a track by a local act, it'd be criminal to not post the following video to this announcement, a piece by Natalie Rodgers for "PROLOGUE: The Swan Is Ecstasy". Natalie's video has intrigued me, like Maneesh, with some tantalising visual allegories, having seen the video for Jesus Makes The Shotgun Sound, and the following for LANTVRN. The following links should provide all further information.

No Age Music Video, by Maneesh Madahar


A prospective video for No Age, by cherished friend Maneesh Madahar. Having created a video for Silver Daggers (frontman Will Strangeland now a contributor to No Age), Maneesh took some time before working on a video project for a band again. The first experience watching this is enough of an indicator of how I and his friends hope he continues to experiment with film, for whatever context or purpose. I stand firm in thinking he is absolutely innovative, creating standalone visual experiences that completely define his work as something for now and the future, and not a regurgitated, nostalgic rehash of experiments from the history books.
