Watch: Dan Black triple feature
I started out this evening by literally stopping what I was doing to look up more about Dan Black after seeing his video for “Symphonies” on NewNowNext Music. It’s below. You’ll see what I mean after you watch it:
Dan Black “Symphonies” from chic & artistic on Vimeo.
All the fantastic, stylized glamour of movie credits. Clever placement of lyrics within the on screen text. ¡Esplendido!
And then I found “Alone” while getting the embed code from Vimeo:

A bit like Beck meets Fischerspooner as translated through a younger generation with a smaller budget and less serious intentions.
Which leads us to “Yours.” Watch now:
Yours – DAN BLACK from The Hours Entertainment on Vimeo.
Students: there is no reason you couldn’t be doing things like this. Please, do things like this. If you need someone that looks like Dan Brown to stand around in hipster clothes in your video, I’m game.
