One of my favorite music videos last year was the surf aerobics class on The Leonites’ song Medizin nach Noten – a popcorn-esque surf instrumental, a bit cheesy but so catchy you can’t get it out of your head. Although there was no official single release at the time, I liked it so much that I added it to my music year-end list. But look:: that official release is here now – a good reason to draw attention to the video again – with 5 other wave-driven tracks from the German 5-piece.
With their new EP Twang Bang, the musicians prove that they have more unforgettable melodies up their sleeve. For the tracks California Games (the tune is borrowed from the C64 game) and Second Wave they have also made entertaining videos with vintage imagery. There is no clip for Tea Dance yet, but the title offers opportunities. Anyway, this is 19 minutes of dancing fun. May I suggest pressing this irresistible music on vinyl as well?
