Dirty Beaches - West Coast Bird
Dirty Beaches is the musical identity for Alex Zhang Hungtai, a Montreal musician of Taiwanese background has gained much attention for his evocative, noir-ish soundscapes. Reminiscent of a David Lynch film score (more on Badalamenti to come), Dirty Beaches' oeuvre manages to be loungey, foreboding, calming, and churning, often all at once. Check out his video for "West Coast Bird", the lead-off track off his Bird EP, where the video is absolutely perfect for this moody instrumental.
