The other day, being in a bit of a mood for neu-shoegazy headphone music, I created a Maps station on Pandora Radio. The first song that loaded up was "Breathes the Best" by Italian producer Populous (not to be confused with the early videogame). Populous aka Andrea Mangia collaborated with Short Stories for this song, which appears on the Breathes the Best EP put out by Berlin record label - Morr Music. Populous shares the label with Lali puna, Múm, & the notwist, so you'll likely correctly assume that the project has a pleasant fuzzy & bleepy aura.
After perusing Populous' videos, I realized the "Breathes the Best" video seemed vaguely familiar. After a second view, I pinned in on the striking simliaries and references to Rauol Servais' animation Chromophobia (1965)!

Oh, the 2nd artist to pop up on the Pandora playlist was Freezepop. how amusing...
