Alternative producer duo Dysplay (Eric Scullin and Devin Hoffman) have worked with everyone from RZA to Awolnation to Bon Iver and have now set their sights on their own sound, bringing their talents to the forefront. Inspired by everything from the alternative sounds of Phoenix and Tame Impala to the danceable vintage new wave of Brian Eno, Talking Heads, and David Bowie, the duo have put a personal & fresh spin on the new single “Too Cool” and created an incredibly entertaining video to match.
We are thrilled to be able to premiere “Too Cool” today on GroundSounds! The video brings back a 50’s-60’s TV performance vibe and looks like it was a ton of fun to film. The song is a smooth, bouncy track that will undoubtedly be stuck in your head all day. Enjoy!
In their own words:
“The song is partly about growing up and feeling out of place or out of your depth sometimes. People can take on these characters to fight that a little bit and that’s how we approached the video, while doing it in a way that kind of jumps through generations of music history. We wanted the visuals to parallel the different influences on the recording, with the kind of Beach Boys vocal harmonies going with the chorus-y guitar, etc. and we also wanted to start and end with the feel of an old live television performance from the Ed Sullivan Show or American Bandstand.”
