If, like me, you love synchronized dance moves, stop motion animation and enthusiastic drummers with Wild Thing hair, you cannot fail to love Midi Matilda’s instantaneously captivating “Day Dreams.”
This up and coming San Franciscan duo took 3,300 pictures of themselves in the studio performing Day Dreams, and then projected them onto thousands of surfaces around the city at night. It’s a simple and fun idea that gives the band a leg up in separating themselves from the pack in the synth-pop genre. It doesn’t hurt that the song itself is undeniably catchy – I get a distinct Passion Pit feel from this song, except slightly more accessible and way more horn-heavy. Give it a listen – based on this song I’m expecting quality things from this band in the future.
