Miles Benjamin Anthony Robinson, 'The Sound' -- Video Premiere
- Posted on Dec 17th 2009 1:35PM by Cristin Maher
Miles Benjamin Anthony Robinson has released the video for newest single, 'The Sound.' The song, which is off Robinson's latest album, 'Summer of Fear,' has an almost child-like quality, with a whimsical keyboard beat taking the forefront of the musical composition. However, the song is anything but youthful, since the lyrics are dripping with feelings of dissatisfaction and discomfort caused by the world in which we are living. The video is centered around Robinson and his friends, who are being followed on what seems to be your average weekend day. Robinson rises from bed and hits the streets of Brooklyn, eventually making his way to Prospect Park. The rest of the video is comprised of Robinson and his buddies -- who are actually the members of his touring band -- just having fun playing baseball and jamming on air guitar.
Robinson is last seen alone at Coney Island, singing with much passion and running around the beach carelessly. The video is also refreshing because it depicts Robinson as a regular guy from the neighborhood, without all of the glitz and glam that comes with being a musician.
"I guess this video kinda juxtaposes my past and present," Robinson tells Spinner. "I wrote 'Buriedfed' at five in the morning in Prospect Park in 2003, the summer before that I spent some time crashing on Coney Island. Hopefully the video gives some context to the words and music. Life sucks and then you die and it's hilarious. It would not be inaccurate to interpret this song as a comment on the death of post-war media, youthful ideals, and the economy."

Stylistically quite nice.
The beach scene took quite a bit of more time than the other scenes, but I understand the light was just delicious.
Could not stand the song, nor the practically pre-pubescent poutings of the artist, but that's neither here nor there.
