Voel je vrij me uit te lachen dat ik dit zeg, maar van alle biologielessen die ik heb gehad was die over weekdieren veruit het meest legendarisch. Bij het zien van [Robert Crispe](http://www.robertcrispe.com/)'s video voor het nummer "Die Slow" van het uit San Diego afkomstige dream pop-collectief [Inspired & the Sleep](http://www.facebook.com/inspiredandthesleep/), heb ik gevoel dat de Australische regisseur hetzelfde sentiment koestert. Na een animatie van in totaal 3.762 aparte en met de hand gekleurde tekeningen zijn er maar weinig dieren die stralender voor de dag gekomen dan zijn glorieuze octopus. Nog indrukwekkender is het feit dat de hele video in-camera is geschoten, waardoor deze clip net zo hard brult als frontman Max Greenhalgh's luchtige, Grizzly Bear-waardige vocals.

'Die Slow' staat op 'EYELID KID', de nieuwe EP van Inspired & the Sleep die je deze week [gratis kunt downloaden](https://inspiredandthesleep.bandcamp.com/album/eyelid-kid). Bekijk de clip hieronder:

Originally from rural Australia, Robert Crispe is a Filmmaker, and exhibited artist who has a prominent interest in creating experimental, DYI moving images with surreal intent. He has worked at one of London's largest advertising agencies within the last two years, adam&eveDDB, where he created video content for Sony Mobile, John Lewis, and Walls before recently moving to Sydney.  

With a few music videos under his belt - most notable being 'Promise Me' for Brooklyn band, Corbu. It premiered on Nylon who qouted "Hands-down the coolest music video we've seen in a while". Robert wanted Die Slow to be a project that would challenge his creativity to deliver something unique and impressive. 'I wanted this to feel hand made, I wanted to give it scale as well as find a point of difference within the stop motion genre.' 

Robert designed, illustrated and crafted all the visual assets for Die Slow. He, also animated all 3,762 frames himself. What sets this paper craft animation aside form any others - 
everything was captured in camera. No post work, just practical effects. 


Inspired & the Sleep is a dream-pop band based in San Diego, California consisting of a revolving lineup surrounding singer-songwriter Max Greenhalgh & multi-instrumentalist Bryce Outcault. Focusing on rhythm and melody, Greenhalgh’s loop-based demos are rewoven with additional psychedelic/jazz threads to construct groove-centered pop songs. Determined on continuous reinvention, the band is moving towards a more refined and darker approach to arranging with polished production while retaining hints of Greenhalgh's previous lo-fi ponderings.
