Song of the Day: Sylvan Esso – Coffee

Everything about this video pulses. The opening strain, the overlay, the voice, the video shots… it will put a beat in your head that won’t soon be shaken. Sylvan Esso has paired its latest single with a cinematic work that is just as intriguing as the group’s mesmerizing sound. Couples dance in slow motion, we see snapshots of house parties, trickling fountains – a disconnected but compelling narrative is created of life as it would be if everything just… slowed… down.

Listen to the track, watch the video. Go see these guys live. They put together a compelling act in all manners of artistic form.
