811) Yuksek ft. Oh Land - Last of Our Kinds

Warning - This video may potentially trigger seizures for people with photosensitive epilepsy. Viewer discretion is advised.
Bubbly and uniquely fun, this 2013 track from French producer Yuksek and Danish singer Oh Land brings back memories of a simpler time. We remember growing up listening to a lot of indie-pop. We would listen to legends like Kimbra, Regina Spektor, Little Dragon, and Emilíana Torrini in heavy rotation, and Oh Land was also a staple in our playlists. The lush colors in her instrumentals, her unique point of view as a writer, and her charming vocals never failed to impress us and capture our attention. We were such avid listeners of her music at the time (and today!) that it came as a total surprise to us when we found out this track existed. Yuksek's vibrant production works flawlessly with everything we love about Oh Land. The song's lyrics, which seem to be directed towards a dangerous partner who's compared to a walrus and to King Kong, celebrate being an outcast, embarking on adventures, and living in love despite all of life's obstacles, which we find just lovely.
Enjoy! ♪
