Fitz And The Tantrums lead singer Fitz says the band wanted their latest CD Pickin’ Up The Pieces to be reminiscent of the Motown-era records he loved growing up. He admits the group’s limited budget created an obstacle, but the band wasn’t discouraged. He explains, quote, “When we started making this record we didn’t have any money, so we were forced to do it in my living room. And it was like, if we can capture just a little bit of what those records sounded like, we’ll have succeeded.” Fitz adds that the acoustics of his living room weren’t exactly ideal for recording sessions, but he notes they decided to make it an asset instead of a liability. He explains, quote, “Rather than trying to fight that with putting up blankets, we decided to let this room be another person in this record and it really created the sound of the record.” Fitz And The Tantrums’ Pickin’ Up The Pieces is out now.
OK Go is unveiling their latest video. The band teamed up with Samsung to make the clip for Last Leaf. Samsung execs reached out to the band to determine what they wanted to do next and let the band loose with their latest innovation in premium camera technology — the Samsung NX 100 camera. Each second of the video is a sequence of fifteen photographs taken with the camera, which was then turned into a hand-drawn animated clip. Last Leaf is from OK Go’s most recent CD, Of The Blue Coulour of the Sky.
