Dubmarine have served up a really special music video to accompany their new single “Point the Bone.” The Brisbane dance act’s new clip features some clever stop-motion animation and an epic battle between robot and octopus!
I’ve got no idea what the imagery has to do with the song, but it matters not. It calls to mind those old Japanese monster movies, but it’s got much more colour. It also took animator Debbie Steer some 200 hours to put together, so I think it serves to attract a few eyeballs.
And before you tell me it’s not an octopus because it has just five legs, I know. The artistic decision is actually a nod to the work of Ray Harryhausen, who created a six-tentacled octopus for the 50s movie It Came From Beneath the Sea, just to save time!
“Point the Bone” is the second track lifted from Dubmarine’s debut album Depth of Sound. They’re currently in the studio working on its follow-up, so watch this space for details on that!
