I recently heard somebody saying how one of the reasons why unemployment is so high these days is that we are all doing a lot more DIY than we used to: from accounting software to Ikea furniture assembling, the occasional odd job has become a form of entertainment. This is obviously an extremely valid point when applied to indie music, in an age where almost all records are at least partially recorded at home, and recording studios are struggling. Porcelain Raft extended this concept also to their music video, which was directed by bearded band leader Remiddi himself – who obviously knows what he’s doing in both sonic and visual realms. The band just released their debut album "Strange Weekend" on Secretly Canadian and is about to begin a US tour.
