Kimbra: Goldmine (Music Video)
Right out the lyrical gate Kimbra sings, "You can't touch it with your two hands" and by that she means her gold. Also untouchable: Kimbra's music videos. Remember "Settle Down"? Trippy adult looking kids, dolls (melting ones), and Kimbra's dance moves that shook their way right into our hearts. Well, the on-screen/airwaves CEO is back recently from Berlin where she and fellow Kiwis, filmmakers Chester Travis and Timothy Armstrong, crafted the official music video for "Goldmine" a fan-favorite from The Golden Echo LP. Meticulously shot in 100% stop-frame animation requiring 400sq meters of heavy-duty aluminum foil and 700 polystyrene spikes in an old factory, the result is a breathtakingly abstract, visual feast of gold on grey-scale.
"Be still my heart."
