Matthias Jordan: Cosmetic Torment

<p>Watch <i>Cosmetic Torment</i>, the new video from Matthias Jordan, directed by Christopher Nicholls.</p> <p>"I first heard/saw Matthias playing one night at Golden Dawn and was totally blown away by his sound - it was just the sort of thing I like to listen to. I seem to remember after the gig telling him how great he was and then having some trouble trying to figure out how to pronounce his name when he introduced himself. </p> <p>"Anyway I downloaded his EP - <i>The Sound of Asia</i> - and could not stop listening to it. Images and scenes kept forming in my head from memories that his music evoked - I knew I had to make this guy a video. I was inspired by the music videos I watched when I was a kid growing up in the 80s - primitive computer graphics, basic video effects, random stock footage and a cool guy with big hair dancing round in a sweet jacket..."</p> <p>To buy <i>The Sound Of Asia</i>, visit Matthias' Bandcamp <a href='http://matthiasjordan.bandcamp.com/releases' target='_blank'>page here</a>.</p>
