You might remember Kool Music from having released one of the best music videos of last year. Well he’s back with an equally captivating work: super-trippy dragons cavorting in the forest in a beautiful haze. The video was directed by Julia Ngeow and “Green Mountain Beauty” is available on Kool’s split with Sean Nicholas Savage from Arbutus here.

Doldrums – Giant In The Sky (Sean Nicholas Savage cover)
Majical Cloudz – Kisses Like A Girl (Sean Nicholas Savage cover)
Mozart’s Sister – Standing In A Line (Sean Nicholas Savage cover)

Everyone in the Canadian music community is aware of Sean Nicholas Savage‘s reputation as an incredible songwriter. He’s released ten-odd albums, each of which contains countless treasures, so it’s no surprise to see such luminaries as Doldrums, Majical Cloudz, Mac DeMarco, Pat Jordache, and so many more covering his tunes on this brand new compilation, available for free from Arbutus Records. Sean is set to release an important full-length in 2013, one that he’s been working on for over a year (a long time for him).

Silent Shout is presenting Sean’s performance at Double Double Land in Toronto on Feb 15, with performances from AGOR of Blue Hawaii and Sexy Merlin, and Cadence Weapon and Doldrums DJing.

This post also appeared on Berlin’s No Fear of Pop.
