Alexis Taylor – “Beautiful Thing” Video
Over the years, Hot Chip co-leader Alexis Taylor has kept busy outside the bounds of his band, releasing a few solo albums and side projects. This spring, he’ll release a new solo album called Beautiful Thing, and it marks the first time he’s teamed up with an outside producer. The producer in question is DFA Records co-founder Tim Goldsworthy, a man who hasn’t been making too much music lately. The album’s first single is also its title track, and it’s a skittery synthpop jam with a house-music sense of propulsion. In director Edwin Burdis’ video, Taylor plays piano while a woman convulsively pop-locks down rain-slick British lanes. Watch the video and check out the album’s tracklist below.
