It has been a stressful year, and many of us find ourselves unable to fall asleep easily at night. The good folks at Adult Swim have prepared a new season of their animated music video series, [ambient swim] to sooth our savage souls and help us get to dreamland quickly!
The first installment of the series “White Noise for Relaxation and Sleep” debuted this past month on the Adult Swim’s YouTube channel, with music from Johnny Woods. Julian Glander, the talented director behind the indie gem Boys Go to Jupiter is the man behind next week’s installment, which is titled Cool Hooper. Six Organs of Admittance, Zach Schimpf and Amulets are the featured artists in the coming weeks.
Here is the list of the season’s lineup:
