Image
I was watching random videos of Kiko Mizuhara on Youtube, when I came across her CF for Huawei Ascend. It has an amazing background music which I then learned was Philosophize In It! Chemicalize With It! by Kishi Bashi Philosophize in it! Chemicalize in it! Kishi Bashi's album last year, 151a  is another gem. I love the whole album but I especially love the tracks  Intro / Pathos, Pathos ,  Manchester ,  Bright Whites ,  It All Began With a Burst , and I Am the Antichrist to You . 151a Listen to Kishi Bashi on Bandcamp -  http://kishibashi.bandcamp.com/
