A sense of carefully crafted naturalism fills "Blue Imelda", from Final Fantasy's Beirut-assisted Spectrum, 14th Century EP. Final Fantasy's Owen Pallett has described the EP's tracks as "fake field recordings," so it stands to reason that this one would convey a sort of ordered casualness through its intricately arranged steel pans, bird noises, and choral vocals. The video, directed by M Blash, shares this feeling of cultivated wildness, alternating in a haphazard fashion between a bottle-toting long-haired girl, a short-haired girl who signals with her hands a lot, and a variety of more abstract images. As with many things Final Fantasy, I can't help but feel like there's more going on here than I can pick up on during a couple of quick viewings.[from the Spectrum, 14th Century EP; out now on Blocks Recording Club]

Owen Pallett bravely battles the rain in this epic performance of a new Final Fantasy track, "Lewis Takes Off His Shirt." It'll ostensibly appear on the endlessly delayed (and desired) Heartland. With rain pounding the stage and concerned stage hands telling him to pull the plug and cover cables with plastic, Pallett requests "just let me finish...

NAME: Owen Pallett (Final Fantasy)PROGRESS REPORT: Finishing work on Heartland, his followup to He Poos Clouds.Owen Pallett describes the way he works as "fastidious."
