A fried chicken drumstick, eagerly consumed while dancing at an (apparent) retirement party/rave, becomes a deadly weapon for one man in the video for “Techno Clique,” from Texas-based uber-chill electronic dance band, Neon Indian. Surely, no one can accuse this band of not having any original ideas for its videos! Vocalist Alan Palomo (who, it must be said, is very easy on the eyes) plays a club DJ presiding over the celebratory festivities when things go wrong under the spinning mirror ball, and the man-of-the-hour requires the Heimlich maneuver to dislodge the threatening hunk of meat. But who can stop dancing long enough to perform the Hug of Life? Like a British Soap opera, it’s lots more fun than it sounds, and who doesn’t love a chill mix that you can groove to? Today, please let “Techno Clique” (from the group’s latest release, VEGA INTL. Night School), be your morning jam. Enjoy!
