From the archive: Kikagaku Moyo – "Kodama" (official video)

Kikagaku Moyo

A curated archive selection for the Videos section: the official music video for "Kodama" by Japanese psych collective Kikagaku Moyo. The track appears on their 2014 album Forest of Lost Children (Beyond Beyond is Beyond / Guruguru Brain), recorded at Tsubame Studio in Tokyo. The video, directed by Oya Yoshitsugu and Date Yuichi, presents the band's hypnotic acid-folk psychedelia — sitar drones, motorik rhythms and West Coast-style harmonies — through striking visuals filmed on 16mm. Kikagaku Moyo have been a cornerstone of the Japanese neo-psychedelia scene since 2012; this 2014 video remains a concise entry point to their sound.
