Produced by 100% Pure New Zealand and MTV, the video is part of a campaign for Tourism New Zealand to showcase the “real New Zealand” through the eyes of New Zealand artists.
From MTV Australia:
‘MTV’s Guide to New Zealand’ gives an intimate look at the personal, home-grown experiences of some of the best Kiwi-born music talent from the last decade, including internationally renowned rapper Scribe, punk-rockers the Mint Chicks, and Liam Finn.
The presentation of this video by new TNZ Chief Executive, Kevin Bowler, was my favorite part of yesterday’s Tourism Auckland Update conference.
“Camera Talk”, from the debut album “Gorilla Manor” by Local Natives, which was released in Feb this year.
I’m really enjoying the album, you’ll appreciate it if you like the sounds of Vampire Weekend and/or Broken Bells. If you like this track, check out “Airplanes” which is the most popular of the album.
“Lovely Allen” by Holy Fuck is so damn familiar. It’s from their 2007 album “LP”, but I can’t work out where else I’ve heard it.
“Osaka Loop Line” from Discovery’s “LP” released July ‘09.
Discovery is a project by Wes Miles of Ra Ra Riot, and Rostam Batmangli from Vampire Weekend, they sound brilliant.
