New Jeffrey Jerusalem Video, "Smiling & Tender"

4 Comments
     
jerusalemJeffrey Jerusalem

We all know how excruciating a visit with the parents can get. And apparently, so does Jeff Brodsky a.k.a. Jeffrey Jerusalem. But instead of hiding in the basement, taking extra-long trips to Walgreen's or pacing around the neighborhood cursing silently like the rest of us, the local electro-dance producer's method of escape is to make music videos.  

According to Brodsky, he shot this clip for Caribou-ish new track "Smiling and Tender" on his iPhone a few weeks ago while back east at his mom's place. Against a black backdrop, Brodsky bangs on some random percussion instruments, wears a weird-looking mask, takes pulls from a flask, goofs off with a toy dog, dances around and gets topless -- y'know, the kind of crazy shit all of us do after being around the folks too long.

No word on exactly where the song is going to end up, but Brodsky recently told Oregon Music News that he's working on a full-length followup to 2009's Grimace,  in between touring with YACHT and playing drums on their upcoming record.

In about ten years or so goups like yaght and like this are going to be regarded with the same amount of scorn and embarassment as the bad 80's hair bands.

I disagree. They will be forgotten altogether along with the volumes of disposable, digital samples.

No offense to Mr. Jerusalem.

As opposed to these comments which, come 2021, will really "be regarded" highly.

They'll be scorned in 5 and retro chic in 10. And so goes the circle of life.
