Robert Taira Wilson – Blackbird
Robert Taira Wilson has officially premiered his new video for the track titled ‘Blackbird’ on Jammerzine. If you read our review of the original track from June, you will get a perspective of our take from the music. The video offers a visual construct of what we said. Introverted. Introspective. Reflective. All of that and more with brilliant sketch style animations with geometric shapes representing bondage and cages that fade through the looking glass showing a better world and an alternative that could be. This is magic.

About ‘Blackbird’
Due to the pandemic, I’ve taken the time away from performing to write a body of new material. For every time you may have felt disowned or dislocated, removed or redundant. This song delves deep into that moment and cries out for escape and healing. A departure from my usual sound, the song features an arpeggiated electric guitar in place of the accustomed acoustic. Written and recorded entirely from my home studio “Blackbird” will be my first release since 2019’s ‘Shine Shine Child’ EP.

Sleeptalk – I Hope You’re Doing Well (Stripped Version)
LA-based electro/indie pop band Sleeptalk recently released their latest single “I Hope You’re Doing Well,” a melancholy breakup anthem that dropped on Valentine’s Day. After receiving a warm response and over 27K plays on Spotify in under two months, the band decided to record a stripped-down version of the track. In the bathed-in-blue music video, the band tinkers with synth pads and other light instrumentation, while giving the melody optimal space to breathe. Slow and steady is the approach here and it allows the devastating lyrics to really expose the loss that vocalist Anthony Fitzpatrick felt.
The stripped-down video comes just days before the band sets out on a West Coast tour with Michael Barr. As an extra treat for fans, Sleeptalk is giving away their debut full-length album Young by signing up HERE.

My Secret Circus – The War Game
New video footage obtained through secured, Australian sources have revealed a potential meeting between the US and North Korean governments, proving that the on-again, off-again negotiations for a peace summit between President Donald Trump and Supreme Leader Kim Jong Un are more ongoing than previously acknowledged. The video shot at an undisclosed location appears to document the two leaders meeting in a typically judicious fashion to determine the future relationship of the mutually antagonistic powers.
The encounter, clearly witnessed by an international audience of diplomatic and political power players that seemed to include, Russian President Vladimir Putin, former Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton, My Secret Circus, and what looks to be a hookah smoking Zombie Bin Laden, reveals the previously underestimated negotiation skills of the oppositional leaders. Throughout the meeting, witnesses are confirmed to be appropriately contributing to the globally critical arbitration between the staid and decorous commanders, and the audience ultimately supports the appeasement goals achieved in the secret summit meeting.
We…have …the Korean summit commemorative coins Trump’s people had made up. Maybe they can become the official currency of the apocalypse?
– Jimmy Kimmel“…President Trump announced that he is calling off his meeting with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un. After he broke it off, Trump told him that he could have custody of Don Jr.”
– Jimmy Fallon“In his letter, Trump’s like, ‘I can wipe your country out with a level of nuclear force you can’t even comprehend… but I’m here for you if you need to talk.'”
– James Corden“I will surely and definitely tame the mentally deranged US dotard with fire,”
– Kim Jong Un“We really wanted to do something that’s happening now. ‘The War Game’ track is tough, strong and makes a statement about a real-life war that’s happening, which we don’t see as we go about our everyday lives. Where on the other hand the video has the quirky side. (No world leaders were hurt in the making of the video) Haha! It’s a piss take for those with a sense of humor but the song is very serious. ”
