Video: Castle Kids, “What You See”

Get lost in the kaleidoscopic trance-inducing images for Castle Kids’ latest video "What You See." The music of Castle Kids mixes elements of trip hop with ambient, chilled out psychedelia, creating both a relaxing and engaging aural experience. In the same way, the video mixes elements from what seems to be an obscure 80s movie – which also appears to be the source of the audio samples in the song – and abstract, DMT-inspired imagery. The visual aesthetic reinforces the musical sampling effect washing all your senses simultaneously. Watch the video below, and wait for that detuned synth melody to be introduced. That’s when things really get interesting. "What You See" is the lead single off the band’s recently released full length, ‘Are You Even’ streaming on soundcloud. – Jacqueline Caruso
