Big Black Delta, the solo project of LA's Jonathan Bates, is soon to release his electrifying new single 'Side of the Road' on April 8th 2013 along with a simple but energetic video. His self-titled second album is due for release soon after on April 29th through Masters Of Bates Records.
The video features Bates flamboyantly dancing in a virtually empty room wearing some unusual eyewear that lights up bright, masking his eyes. Throughout the song it periodically cuts to him donning a more casual outfit and singing into a microphone with drummers playing behind him. The editing artistry executed in the video is simple but effective, and doesn't take away from the quality of this brilliant song. It's an dreamlike, but upbeat electronic number with artistically auto-tuned vocals and sounds like it's come straight out of the eighties. Bates' eccentric moves in the video even bring out a comedic aspect to it, which makes it even more enjoyable to listen to.
Big Black Delta will hit the UK at Brighton's Great Escape festival and Camden Crawl.
