Moby And Wayne Coyne Set To Debut Crazy Video For The Perfect Life
Monday, 12 August 2013
Written by Elliott Batte
Moby has teamed up with the Flaming Lips’ Wayne Coyne for brand new track The Perfect Life and they've created a rather freaky video for it too.
Moby has been putting together what will be his 11th studio album, ‘Innocents’, and its second single looks set to be unleashed in the very near future, following July’s A Case for Shame.
Having worked with Coyne on the track, the pair saw it fitting to both feature in the video and they’ve created what has the potential to be the weirdest promo ever.
Sharing a picture from the LA video shoot via his Facebook page, Moby and Coyne are fitted out in full mariachi band uniform, complete with sombreros, guitars and accordions.
Funnily enough, Moby made a rather bizarre list of stuff he wanted for the video earlier on his website - writing:
“below are the extras we need, if you think you can help out:
“a drunk king: guy with beard age 35-50
“s&m gimp rhythmic gymnast: a rhythmic gymnast dressed in a leather s and m gimp costume complete with mask with a zipper mouth. someone who is good at the ribbon and stick thing. preferably a male if such a thing exists. if not a women or girl with a flat chest.
“8 rollerskating ghosts: any gender. roller skaters not rollerbladers, ideally people who can roller dance and do a choreographed routine, perhaps a roller dance crew if such a thing exists. ideally people who also would be ok with taking off their costume and get naked but not obligatory rollerskating dance ability takes preference.
“12 goth choir members: in their 20‘s mixed sex and ethnicity. don't have to be able to sing but need to lip synch and be able to move with a little it of rhythm as the choir will move their hands in unison. they should be goth. ideally they are comfortable with nudity.
“2 obese bearded bikers in red speedos: pretty self explanatory there. need to be able to ride a motorcycle, ideally they have their own.
“20 random party goers who are comfortable with nudity: all ages. freaky fun, people who are cool with dancing and getting naked. existing costumes and skills a plus like hula hoopers, crunk dancers various random talents, jugglers etc, trick rope twirlers, stuff of that weird talent show speciality nature a plus. comfortable with nudity is the main requirement here.
a punk rock brass brand: maybe this pre- exist in la? like a steam punk anarchistic brass band?”
He then assured his fans that the requests were real - confirming that the video, which’ll hit the net soon, is certain to be pretty bonkers. Are you looking forward to it? Leave us a comment in the box below!
