Lightspeed Champion’s Marlene by Ferry Gouw
Tuesday, 8. December 2009 - 1:09 pm
Dev from Lightspeed Champion has hooked up once again with the multi-talented Ferry Gouw to make the new video for Marlene. It’s as intriguingly off-centre as their epic collaboration for Midnight Surprise two years ago – and even more disorientating.
This one – shot at the Death Valley National Park and surrounding area over the course of three days – starts like No Country For Old Men turns into something far trippier.
“The video focuses on paranoia and how it attacks and takes hold, never letting things be as they should,” says producer David Beazley. “It’s a cinematic ode to David Lynch, 60′s Bond movies and in debt to photography by Stephen Shore.”

I think this is a superb video. The chorus is far too beautiful, the melody is just amazing to me. The girl in the diner with Dev is smokin hot.
