Video: Teengirl Fantasy - "Dancing in Slow Motion"

A few weeks back I posted Mark Brown's video for a new Ami Dang track, and here's another psychedelic swirl of visuals compliments of Baltimore's Mark Brown.



The track is off Teengirl Fantasy's newest LP, dubbed 7 AM. Admittedly, I haven't been a fan of more traditional electronic music as of late. Teengirl Fantasy's new LP has revived my faith in simple and repetitive electronic dance music, and has had me coming back to it quite a bit more than anticipated. Plus, its got soul. This duo does not originate from Baltimore, but they've got a couple Whartscapes under their belt over the past few years.



7 AM is out now on True Panther. Hear the album closer, "Cheaters", above.

Video: Ami Dang - Where Nothing Grows

We mentioned Ami Dang's forthcoming record a few weeks ago, which is out via Ehse Records on January 7. It now has its first proper video, a short sculpted by Mark Brown.



I first caught the video for "Where Nothing Grows" during Mark Brown's portion of Soft Fest a few weeks back, in which he also projected a taste from an upcoming Teengirl Fantasy video he did. Mark's psychedelic churn of effects turn this bollywood dance romp into a full-on organic head-fuck. From the looks of the footage, I'd guess that Ami is dancing in the corner of The Soft House while the sun sets over west Baltimore. This imagery is cut and spun with sun-lit vegetation, which eventually turns to sparse desert.

Ami Dang's forthcoming LP is dubbed HUKAM, and is out January 7 via Ehse.

Tonight: Rapdragons, Adventure, White Life

Tonight you can choose rap at the Ottobar or the weird move-your-body vibes that will be radiating at the Soft House. Mark Brown posted to Beatbots in regards to the latter...

White Life!
Featuring Jon Ehrens, Grayson James Brown, & Dave Fell.
Adventure!
Benny's got a brand new bag.
Full On Void!
Rjyan Kidwell / Shaun Flynn infinite collaboration at the precipice of infinity.
DJ Mark Brown!
Soft Techno / Minimal 2-Step / Future Garage / Afghan Riddims

Adventure's new stuff has sounded rad live, and I for one hope to hear some of Benny's current recordings soon. White Life put on a solid Whartscape performance, and Jon Ehrens other band The Art Department has a brand new record in full rotation here. This one goes down at The Soft House at 10 PM and is five bucks.



The Ottobar's got a fun hip hop show that brings Ninjasonik and pairs them with the Rapdragons. If you haven't yet taken advantage of the free download for Rapdragons' Featuring Baltimore mixtape, get on that now. It's samples all of your favorite Baltimore bands, and it does it damn well.
