I think the London-based Franco-Anatolian creative duo Kit Sebastian have watched many French arthouse flicks from the 70's.

Their music videos are quite a refreshing treat for the ears, eyes, mind, heart, and soul.

A music video that is rather cinematic:

This song will probably be outside the daily diet of many people.

Try it. It's a captivating blend. The intro phrase is in seven beats, but then it jumps into something you can tap your toes to.

The outro vamp is in eight beats, but it sure doesn't feel like 4/4. I dare you to dance to it!
