Goldfrapp - Happines Video



Dougal Wilson has directed another hit for Goldfrapp with his MGM musical-inspired video for Goldfrapp’s ‘Happiness’. This is Dougal’s second video for the Goldfrapp campaign, and we’re happy to confirm that it picks up where ‘A&E’ left off. Dougal’s team have created another magical universe centered around a character jumping for joy (complete with dancing dog).
Take a look here – and keep an eye out for Alison’s various cameos.

The Republic Tigers, Buildings And Mountains

With a sound that the band describe as "half organic and half synthetic, kind of like how all our lives are now,” Kansas City’s The Republic Tigers have created a pastoral, yet modern sound, which bubbles along with just the right amount of electronic sparkle on the acoustic guitars, creating intimate epics that demand a second listen.






“Buildings And Mountains” typifies these feelings, with its shuffling tempo and soothing vocals, it’s no surprise that the band would appeal to music supervisor Alexandra Patsavas, responsible for the soundtracks to Grey's Anatomy, Gossip Girl, The O.C. who signed the band to her record label. Mixing the right elements of The Shins and the Postal Service, “Buildings And Mountains” is sure to become a mix-tape favorite.
