Sound and Vision - De Chirico and Broadcast



Melancholy and Mystery of a Street, Giorgio De Chirico

For me, De Chirico's dreamlike paintings are much more evocative than the abstract still lifes of other surrealists like Tanguey or Dali, and more than just about any band I can think of, Broadcast can make music that sounds like a dream. This song, an homage to a Czech movie called Valerie a týden divu, is one of my favorites from their second album, Haha Sound.


Broadcast - Valerie
