If the concept of an album based around tiny, nontraditional music applications strikes you as a bit of inspired genius, then the same can be said for this video. Rather than animate this tale of arachnid love, Doctor Popular instead elected tell the story from pieces in his own real life art show. The end product is a bit of a musical short film that's not only the classic tale of boy-meets-spider, but also a story of a man left alone to ponder his own artistic output.
Visually the piece alternates sharply between warm and bleak, and musically it's some of the most engaging vocal electronica I've heard since Supercommuter's groundbreaking debut. Beeps and Smudges drops next Monday, and I for one can't wait. Check out the video below to see why I'm so excited, and hit up the good Doctor's Bandcamp page to snag a free copy of this single for yourself.

Pretty rad, yo.
Yeah, Doc does good work, and I think this really showcases his sound. Can't wait for the album to drop!
This sort of thing is why I never eat apples
It was a joke about the saying "an apple a day keeps the doctor away" and how I wouldn't want to eat any apples if it meant doc pop would stay away because he is so very amazing
Jimi- Oh! That makes way more sense! I thought it was something about finding a spider in your apple... or not liking iPhones because they are made by Apple... or maybe you were worried about some chemicals in non-organic apples that might shrink you into a tiny person.
Thanks for the clarification, Jimi. Like Doc I was also way over-analyzing that statement. :)
