New York artist Elliot Moss recently released the music video for his single “Pattern Repeating” and if you haven’t been able to check it out (ditto for his debut album Highspeeds), now is your shot. Taking things down a bit, “Pattern Repeating” sits comfortably in alongside material released by your Bon Ivers, your James Blakes and your Jamie Woons. The eerie effect the minimal arrangement provides is enough to make the listener hook in and become slightly uncomfortable, though in the percussion and melody, the song is oddly hypnotic.
The music video matches the vibe of the track extremely well, with his characters’ faceless, going about their daily routine. The uneasiness of suburban life is a theme exploited really well in the clip, the viewer is given an insight into what could be seen as mundane to some, and a enticing voyeuristic trip to others.
