The Wimshurst's Machine:
Created: 09/19/2005
Video description: This track was built as a "video comic strip", with dialogue in Italian. This surrealistic short tells the story of a man (Orino Suimuri, role played by Elvis Bergero) who is caught pissing on an atrium's wall. It is a funny "noir" production, full of dry humor.

The Wimshurst's Machine: "Mystical Sea (of Space and Time)"

Originally, the band scored a Sci-Fi TV b-movie soundtrack for a local Italian TV network. They then obtained the permit to use the movie scenes to create a video for "Mystical Sea," one of the songs used in the soundtrack. This video tells a sci-fi story with actors. The "slim one" is also a bandmember. The original movie was 35 minutes long, but here in this version has been cut down to a 6-minute short story, professionally made and full of special effects.

Beth Orton: "Conceived"

Beth Orton is a famously good singer, as evidenced by the three albums that have so conspicuously built her worldwide reputation over the past decade. Not even that illustrious body of work, however, can properly prepare you for the extraordinarily personal, almost naked and most certainly honest emotional qualities of "Comfort of Strangers," Beth Orton's new album released in February 2006.

Its production values are deceptively uncomplicated. Deceptive, because the album's stripped-down sonics allow the emotional complexities of Beth Orton's performances - and particularly her premiership talents as a songwriter - to flourish; at times sad, funny, playful and poignant, romantic, always lyrical and on occasion even a touch sentimental. Indeed, coming after her opening trilogy of albums, "Comfort of Strangers" represents a total sense of reinvention, a fabulous alchemy resulting from a set of simple rules that Beth Orton decided for the new CD.

Jennifer Gentle: "I Do Dream You"

Hailing from Padova, Italy, Jennifer Gentle is not a girl. Jennifer Gentle is, in fact, a band made up of singer/guitarist Marco Fasolo and drummer Alessio Gastaldello (joined by various accomplices when they play live). Valende is their third full-length, and first for Sub Pop (their first two albums, I Am You Are and Funny Creatures Lane were released individually on Italy's Sillyboy Entertainment, and together as a double CD under the name Ectoplasmic Garden Party by Australia's Lexicon Devil label). The record was, like its predecessors, home-recorded by Marco and Alessio and it's a psych pop charmer, drawing on the band's own brand of musical dementia: an almost impossible-to-describe melting pot of whacked experimentation, deep fried eccentricity and acoustic beauty, drawing judiciously on the band's long-term fascination with Syd Barrett, 13th Floor Elevators, and Joe Meek production techniques. Jennifer Gentle is also the first Italian band Sub Pop has ever signed (such is our deep affection for the band). But, again, Jennifer Gentle is not a girl.
