New Cassettes Won't Listen Video - "Into The Hillside" (Stereogum Premiere)

thumbnail icon: New Cassettes Won't Listen Video - "Into The Hillside" (Stereogum Premiere)

New York producer and multi-instrumentalist Jason Drake, aka Cassettes Won't Listen, has already given us the free One Alternative EP, which offered his laptop covers of Pavement, Sebadoh, etc., as well as his Ludacris/G 'N R mashup Ludacris Democracy. Now he's experimenting with the Chairlift and Kanye-tested "datamoshing" technology. We didn't know the name of the terminology before today, but now that we do, I need to watch my mouth out with soap. Still, it does create an interestingly psychedelic backdrop to Drake's instrumental "Into The Hillside," which comes from Cassettes Won't Listens instrumental album of the same name.

Sans "datamoshing":

Into The Hillside is out now via Cassettes Won't Listen.

dear indie bands,

please stop using the word "cassette" in your band name.

CWL was one of the first. Although, I agree, it's starting to become played out

This is nice! NIc Brown (and his friends of Videomarsh) did the video. He is a bloody clever canadian.

Check out another datamoshvid he just did for the Norwegian dødpop- label:
