Neon Indian - Polish Girl

I've been a fan of Alan Palomo ever since he said that much of his music was inspired by hazy 3AM trips to I Luv Video while he lived in Austin to rent strange old movies.

"They have a really extensive selection and I went here a lot late at night during the writing of Psychic Chasms. I would go in there after working all day feeling kind of zombified and could always find a movie that complimented that mood."

But that was his first album. Time has passed since Palomo has lived in Austin, he's been playing the circuit of festivals, has been deemed a founding father of the "chillwave" craze, has had time to detach himself from the obscure local adventures that saturated the dazed tone of Psychic Chasms.

Yet I think that if "Polish Girl", directed by Tim Nackashi and off his newly released album Era Extraña proves anything, it's that our Indian is still fond of the retro and bizarre. Filled with old technology performing futuristic concepts (complete, of course, with monitor static), the music video plays as if it itself were a dusty spaced-out gem of a VHS found in the back of I Luv Video.

Era Extraña was released September 13, you can buy it here.
