Here’s a video which wouldn’t really come at a better time if it tried. Presidential election coming up, the sempiternal pro vs. anti-abortion debate sparked up again from the Republican front. In the midst of it all, Broooklyn-based songwriter Shilpa Ray has concocted, with her Happy Hookers (and a little help from her fans) this iconography-saturated video she released last week to illustrate the moody, sour drone of her song ‘Nocturnal Emissions’. A black&white DIY silent movie-style montage, it takes the shape of a vindictive dig at man-made contraception policies imagining a violent women-led pro-natality campaign straight out of a dude’s worst nightmare. See for yourself, and mainly, don’t forget to vote tomorrow! – Tracy Mamoun
