MajiCloudz

Holy hell, does Devon Welsh aka Majical Cloudz have the best voice.  I first heard his name when Grimes' Visions came out and he was featured on her song "Nightmusic."  Then I blogged about his cute little friendship song called "What That Was."  And now his album titled Impersonator is out so I just made a midnight snack to it, (a salad with goat cheese and tuna with home made miso sesame dressing, weirdly ambitious and healthy for this time of night) and have fallen deeper into the Majical Cloudz.

While I was listening to "Bugs Don't Buzz" tonight, I had the sudden urge to dramatically fall to my knees with a paring knife in one hand a red bell pepper in the other, to then just close my eyes and listen to the music.  Maybe melt a little further into the floor.  I didn't.  But that's how his music makes me feel.  Like Katy and I say (grunt?) when we talk about handsome men or great songs, "Uhhhhgggnnnnnn."

Another amazing song from MC is called "Childhood's End" and is directed by one of my favorite directors that I like to blog about, Emily Kai Bock who has directed amazing videos for the likes of Grimes and Grizzly Bear. Now lets throw another twist in there. Devon Welsh's (Majical Cloudz) father is staring in this video. And who is his father? Kenneth Welsh, who played Windom Earle on Twin Peaks. Now, upon some light research, I don't think I had gotten to the point in Twin Peaks where he enters the plot. Katy and I unfortunately petered out after the second half of the second season. But either way, all of this information is pretty cool.  Check out this song and awesome video!



Also, if anyone who likes Majical Cloudz and reads this, he's apparently playing Winnipeg August 14th at the "Union Sound Hall" whatever that is. I've never heard of it so I hope it's a typo and that it's really at The Pyramid or something but either way, seeing this show live would be amazing.
