865) LA Priest - What Moves

Whether you know him as LA Priest, Sam Dust, or a member of Soft Hair and Late Of The Pier (or even if none of these ring any bells), Samuel Eastgate's material is likely to have already reached you at some point. The funky, alternative, experimental psych-pop created by this Wales-based musical genius is well-crafted and expressive, and it stems from a creative brain full of interesting ideas. Eastgate's style is often compared to the likes of Prince and Jack Stauber thanks to his high-pitched singing and wonky melodies, and this track is a perfect example of just why. It revolves around a simple idea but is packed with soul and dynamic energy. On top of that, LA Priest is constantly praised for his hands-on approach; His sophomore album, "GENE", from which the song is taken, has an analog drum machine the musician invented and built himself as its focal point. Another artistic aspect of his work in which he'd deeply involved is his music videos. The sweet and trippy clip for "What Moves" was directed and produced by him. We can't help but stand from the side and appreciate the creativity, humor, and originality this man has to offer.
Enjoy! ♪
